Student Package Lockers


EKU Mail Services provides shared lockers for students to retrieve packages securely and conveniently. We will automatically send an email to your EKU email address when a package has been placed in the lockers. The email will include the location of your locker (either the EKU lockers or Big E lockers) along with your single use code.

When approaching the lockers, ensure no one is blocking the locker doors. Either swipe your card (MAROON CARDS ONLY), tap your card app to the card reader, scan the QR Code ( DO NOT TOUCH SCREEN) in your email or enter your 6 digit codes on the touch screen. Collect your package and shut the door completely.

Important Information

  • If you have multiple packages to collect, you will have one email for each package
  • Collect the package, close the door, and tap the blue locker on the screen for each package you have
  • The codes can only be used once
  • If for any reason the door closes before your package is retrieved, please contact EKU Mail Services inside the center or by phone 859-622-1905 for technical assistance
  • General questions can be emailed to EKUMail@eku.edu
  • Packages not picked up from the locker within 24 hours will be returned to EKU Mail Services and held for collection for 14 calendar days.
  • Delivery confirmation from the shipper does not imply the package is ready.
