What is C-PORT?

C-Port: Intelligent Parcel Lockers (Updated: 02/08/22)

IMPORTANT: Check your RIVERMAIL for C-PORT Delivery Notifications. 

Watch our short intro video to learn more!

Announcements and important information about C-PORT: 

• Check your RIVERMAIL for C-PORT notifications. C-PORT defaults to sending notifications to your RIVERMAIL. (Always check your JUNK and SPAM folders just in case)
• No deliveries will be made to any branch campus C-PORT for RS Web Orders on Fridays during Summer hours.
• Packages are available for 7-days to pick up at your selected C-PORT location. After the 7th day, your package will be returned to Massey Campus prompting a refund with a 10-percent fee for services rendered. 

Read more about C-PORT below!

 One of the greatest changes made at the River Shop was the introduction of an intelligent parcel locker system that we've named C-Port. This system will enable web orders to be delivered to branch campus locations and available for pick up for as long as the building location is open – which gives you more convenience and time to pick-up your order. C-Port will be available at all major IRSC campuses, and has a ton of features to be excited about:

• It's a state-of-the-art package delivery system that reduces person-to-person contact, is safe, secure, and reliable. 
• Shipments to C-PORT are FREE.
• Returns using C-PORT will be easier than ever.
• Delivery and package status notifications will be sent to your RiverMail and phone via SMS.
• C-Port is self-service, no need to wait on anyone for any reason. 
• Package pick up is available longer than curbside options were, most locations are open 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM, Monday through Friday; but it does vary campus to campus, so check with your local campus’s registration desk for building hours of operation and scheduled changes. 
• Students using Financial Aid or Scholarship as a payment method will no longer have to submit verification documents if they choose a C-Port for their delivery method.
