University Mail Service to merge with College Messengers

University Mail Services team working together

Five College Messenger staff are moving to Wellington Square, and the teams will formally join forces from 1 August. There should be no change to the service for University departments, except that the merger will create a better, more transparent and more cost-effective service working across the collegiate University.

Colleges will now have the option to use the central mail room to process their outbound mail and cut costs through centralised franking; if all of them were to take full advantage, total expected savings would be around £500,000. The merger will also make it easier to pursue planned projects such as freight consolidation in response to the City Council’s planned Zero Emission Zone, working alongside Environmental Sustainability.
