Shipping booth materials
Incoming shipments
SCF Goes Green/Swag Suggestions: SWE and the College of Engineering is dedicated to the University wide Scotty Goes Green initiative. As part of this effort, we ask that all SCF employers limit giveaways to those items that are practical and usable. These might include: candy, chap sticks, hand sanitizers, pens, and USB sticks. Shipments must be received by Stetson Convention Services by September 8th in order to be on-site for the SCF.
If you choose to ship items, please contact Stetson Convention Services for details regarding your shipment, deadlines for shipping and the associated costs. For a fee to be paid by the company, Stetson will deliver each company’s materials to the appropriate booth before your arrival.
Please ship items to the address listed below. Make sure to include your booth number on your shipment to guarantee its delivery to your booth. Booth numbers will be provided closer to the fair.

Outgoing shipments
You can also ship materials directly from the SCF when the event has concluded. At 5 p.m., our volunteers will assist you. Please place all items to be shipped on your booth table with completed shipping labels attached. We cannot guarantee that items left unpackaged or unlabeled will be returned. Volunteers will collect items. You can pick up shipping labels outside the break room during the afternoon or ask one of our volunteers to provide them for you. Our shipment provider is FedEx. If you use a different shipper, you may have to manage your own arrangements.
There is a Tartan Ink office located in the University Center, which you can use to have materials printed in lieu of shipping them. Please contact James Ward at 412.268.4828 for details.
Note: Do NOT ship materials to Carnegie Mellon University. All materials must be shipped through Stetson Convention Services.
