Amazon opens University of Pittsburgh one-day shipping pickup location
If two-day shipping isn't fast enough, Amazon has opened a one-day shipping pickup location on the University of Pittsburgh campus.
Amazon Prime customers who choose to ship their orders to the Amazon@Pitt pickup location can swing by and grab their items the next day.
Amazon@Pitt opened Tuesday.
The pickup location is at 209 Oakland Ave. and open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., Monday through Friday and 12 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. The location is open to everyone. You do not have to be a Pitt student to use it.
One-day shipping is free for Amazon Prime members. Orders placed by 10 p.m. will be available the next day. Customers will have to scan a code and retrieve their items from a locker.
Customers can also drop off returns and recycle cardboard boxes. Amazon@Pitt can be added as a shipping location by taking by scanning any official Pitt logo using the Amazon app.
Amazon's Oakland location is the second one-day pickup spot in Pennsylvania. The other is in State College at Penn State. Amazon has a same-day pickup location on the University of Pennsylvania's campus.
