If you have any issues regarding shipping, please contact us at tbp-career-fair@mit.edu.

All packages must arrive at the above address by February 1, 2008 to insure arrival by the day of the event. If you are attending MIT's Tech Fair, which takes place on the 4th, and would like packages picked up from their storage location, please let us know via email at tbp-career-exec@mit.edu .

Due to unforeseen circumstances, there have been changes in the shipping policy from last year. Neither UPS nor FedEx will be able to accept payments for boxes being shipped from MIT on the day of the career fair. Therefore, companies should bring pre-paid or "pay to recipient" shipping labels with them. All packages that will be shipped back to companies NEED to have one of these shipping labels. It is not possible for companies to pay for shipping labels at MIT on the day of the event.

The TBP Career Fair ends at 4 pm. Package pickups from UPS and FedEx have been scheduled for 5 pm. Therefore, companies have one hour after the end of the event to pack up their boxes.

Any packages left in the Rockwell Cage after the career fair will be held for one week. After one week, such packages will be discarded. Neither TBP nor the TBP Career Fair will be held responsible for any packages left in the Rockwell Cage for any reason.
