Goods Handling

The janitorial is responsible for goods handling at the Rudbeck Laboratory goods reception, and is only available for businesses within the Campus Management's area.
The goods reception service cannot be used by the employee for private needs, or by students.

Incoming Goods

The goods reception is located in building C11, floor S, and is managed by the janitorial staff.

Correct delivery address for goods:

Rudbecklaboratoriet
[First and last name]
[Institution, building, floor]

Dag Hammarskjölds väg 20
752 37 Uppsala

Incoming goods is delivered to Rudbeck Laboratory all workdays. Every day, 10-15 different couriers arrive from 7 a.m. until 3 p.m. The deliveries are sorted at the goods reception, and then distributed to drop-off locations around buildings C11, C5 and MTC. All packages that arrive are delivered the same day as received.

Each package is scanned at the drop-off locations, using the package's unique tracking number, so that it can be tracked afterwards if the need arises. If a package that should have been delivered to a drop-off location is missing, the staff at the goods reception can easily track it down in the scanning system. If the package is not registered at all, it has not yet been delivered to the Rudbeck Laboratory. The customer has the possibility to contact the sender for the reason for this.

If an entire department is away for a day, and no one is left to take care of any refrigerated or freezer packages, contact the goods reception, and the packages can be taken care of by the janitorial staff. The goods reception has both a fridge and a freezer (household size) for short-term storage of smaller goods.

Packages that may contain theft-prone electronics, such as phones, chargers, computer monitors, etc., are not delivered to the drop-off locations, but instead stored at the goods reception. After receiving an email from the janitorial, the package can be picked up there. In order to pick up your package, you need to be able to identify yourself upon request. The package should be collected as soon as possible, and if this is not possible, please contact the goods reception.

Goods, postal parcels and express/courier consignments, should (as far as possible) be sent with PostNord, in accordance with the government agreement for parcel forwarding services. Small parcels, which are not prone to theft, and can easily be carried by hand, are placed on the goods table opposite the reception desk at the main entrance. Larger consignments, such as larger instruments, or packages with content that is prone to theft, can be handed over to the goods reception.

Good to remember:

  • The goods should be well packaged. The sender is responsible for all transport damage caused by lack of secured packaging. If necessary, the goods reception has a packing table to help you.
  • The sender must provide all information and documents required. What is required depends on where the package is to be sent, and the content.
  • The department will be invoiced by PostNord.

The following tools are available at the goods reception to send goods:

  • Packing table
  • Kraft paper (wrapping paper)
  • Packing tape
  • Wrapping film
  • Pallet strapping
  • Pallet truck
  • Sack truck
  • Electric stacker truck

(The goods reception does not provide cardboard boxes for sending goods, the user takes care of acquiring this himself.)

Are you bringing goods into, or out of Sweden? At the Swedish Customs website you can find information on how to carry out your case. When importing or exporting goods from or to the EU's customs area, the goods' product code must be entered according to the list used within the EU.
