Supermarket deliveries
Online deliveries - if you are booking a food delivery for the weekend, please can we ask that you arrange this for after 7pm over the arrivals weekend as this can impact on the traffic flow across campus.
Bringing shopping back to accommodation - if you are planning to do a food shop after you have arrived and need to return to your accommodation, please check with a member of staff about where you can park to drop the items off as we understand that you may have too many items to carry from an external car park. If possible, aim for later in the day.
Our team will be out and about preparing for Arrivals at the start of September and may not be able to answer all queries before the 9th September. Please refer to our previous emails and webpages to see if your query can be answered there: Accommodation - University of Winchester
