School or College Deliveries

Want to send a little "sumpin sweet" to your son or daughter who is away at college? Like to surprise your niece with a scrumptious delivery at her elementary school? Over the years CookiePots® has accumulated some information that can help you with a satisfactory school delivery. Since CookiePots® packs and ships all our gifts from our own location, we have better control over the "journey" of your gift. Many online retailers give the impression that they are in control of shipping your gifts but are actually just "middle men" who take your order and then farm it out to the "real" company that handles packing and shipping your gift. In short, they take your order and then "hope for the best."

So, what can you do to ensure a timely delivery?

Call the elementary or high school and make sure that the school accepts packages for students. We have found that some elementary and high schools do not allow student deliveries. If you find that this is the case – CookiePots® can always ship to the student’s home.
Send the package to arrive a day or two EARLY. Many people don’t realize that gifts aren’t delivered directly to the student. What normally happens is the package is left in a designated package area with all of the other packages delivered that day. When a school employee has time, he or she will go through all the packages and then notify each recipient that they have received a package. This sometimes takes an extra day or two!!
If sending to a college student, please provide the physical college street address, plus the room number or student box number. Also, don’t forget the full name of the college itself. A good format to follow is shown below:

ABC College
Mary Ann Student
1234 Any Street
Student Box 123 or Room 444
Anycity, NY 12345

Pay attention to the day of the week that the package will be received.

Monday through Thursday – Good days to aim for.

Friday - The package could arrive late in the day and then all the reasons below come into play.

Saturday - Some mailrooms aren’t open on Saturdays or close early and your student won’t be able to retrieve the package until the following Monday. If this does happen, CookiePots® products are specially wrapped to preserve freshness, so that won’t be a problem, but the “special” occasion might be missed!

If you’ve done the above steps, relax! Your student will love their CookiePots® gift - Yippee!!
