- Mail and Parcels

Mail and parcels delivered to IGB throughout the day are sorted and delivered to the IGB drop zones throughout the facility. An email is then sent to the name on the incoming parcel, notifying them that a parcel is ready for pick up at the designated drop zone for their area. On occasion, when there is no name listed on the parcel, we do our best to locate someone who may be associated with the purchase. If you think a parcel was delivered and you can’t find it, look for it in the drop zone and then email IGB Receiving; we may be holding it without a name or location.
