Can I order food to my university accommodation?

Food shopping deliveries from a supermarket and ‘Amazon Prime Now’ or meal delivery services such as Deliveroo are the only deliveries that are permitted to be delivered direct to accommodation areas. Central Distribution will not accept deliveries from supermarkets or Amazon Prime Now. Please make sure to add your contact number to orders such as these so the driver can contact you directly to receive. 

For other food parcels, please see the arrangements below but be aware that we are not open for deliveries or collections at the weekends so please do not select a delivery date over a weekend period. 

Stag Hill campus

You can arrange to have food parcels delivered, but you will need to pick them up immediately as there are no fridges onsite. Once you receive notification from the delivery courier your food item has been delivered, please allow one hour before heading to Central Distribution to collect. Central Distribution will send you an email once the item is ready for collection. Please bring your student ID to collect. Central Distribution is open for collections Monday to Friday 9am - 5pm.

Manor Park campus

You can arrange to have food parcels delivered. They will be placed into lockers for your collection. We prioritise processing food parcels and aim to have them placed into a locker within two hours of delivery to Central Distribution. We will send you an email with the location details. If the item is too large to fit inside a locker, we will notify you by email and the item can be collected from the Manor Park Post Room.
