GENERAL INFORMATION

Distribution is provided by UCHC Couriers from Receiving, Distribution, Mail & Shipping. 
Central Distribution Services handles over 10,000 packages and parcels weekly.

Hours of operation are:
 

Customer Service: Monday - Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., unless otherwise specified in the Central Distribution  Manual.

Central Distribution Services encompasses the Main Building, Administrative Services Building, Lower Campus, Dowling Complex, The Exchange, 10 Talcott Notch, Newington Veterans Administration Medical Center, Burgdorf Health Center, Family Medicine, Clinton Street Clinic, State Comptroller's Office, the Children's Hospital in Hartford, and other locations stated in the various UCHC Route Schedules.

The current delivery system works efficiently and at a major cost savings to the Institution in both manpower and inventory reduction. The need for double and triple handling of product and stock piling of supply goods has been virtually eliminated using the Central Distribution System.

 

  • Help avoid delivery mishaps, follow these important directions!! 

    Please make sure that you list your Ship-To address correctly when placing your Purchase Order!!  Your Department Name, Your Name, Telephone Number, Building/Floor/Room Number, and Mail Code are Essential.   When ordering critical items, make sure the
    vendor knows to include this information before shipping.  99% of missed Delivered or Loss Packages are a result of deficient Ship-To information. 


    Please make sure that you Sign & Print your name legibly when receiving goods from our Distribution Staff.  If there is a problem with the delivery/receiving, your signature plays a critical role when dealing with Vendors or Distribution Services.


    Please make sure that all destination labeling is accurate.
      
    Your Department Name, Your Name, Telephone Number, Building/Floor/Room Number, and Mail Code are Essential.

    All receiving issues must be reported in a timely fashion to the Receiving Department Supervisor at 679-1957 or x-1958. We are not responsible for any receiving losses which were not reported within 45 days from arrival date at the UCHC West Dock.

    Holiday Schedule

    Normal distribution services during National Holidays will be effected, as the flow of incoming parcels will be substantially reduced.  As always, there will be no mail or distribution services during major holidays. (e.g. Fourth of July, Christmas, Thanksgiving , Labor Day and Memorial Day).  Hospital PAR units will be serviced as always by assigned Materials Management staff that day.  A special notice is sent to all Hospital and Clinical units with information regarding holiday coverage.
