Every week we ship items to VDOT personnel across the state. These days we are even willing to ship items to VDOT employees working outside of Virginia!
However, when items are due we need you to ship them back if you don't want to renew them for continued use (or if we are not able to renew them, such as with some ILL items).
We don't care how you ship items to us. You can use the U.S. Postal Service, a delivery service like FedX or UPS, or even VDOT's Interoffice Mail!
We do ask (if you return ship by a method other than Interoffice mail) that you insure the package for the amount noted on the slip in the book we shipped to you originally (this mainly applies to reference items since the replacement cost is substantially higher).
When we ship items to you we should have included a return address sticker (but not pre-paid shipping) and we hope you'll use it, even if you use Interoffice Mail. Why you ask?
It's pretty common for Interoffice mail to deliver items being shipped to us to VDOT's Charlottesville Residency by accident. Here's the best way to address items you're shipping to us:
VDOT Research Library
Virginia Transportation Research Council (VTRC)
530 Edgemont Road
Charlottesville, VA 22903
If you have any questions about shipping/insurance just ask!
