Holiday Closures

Stanford University has an extended winter closure period at the end of the year. We generally give instructions to vendors to hold all orders during that time, unless the department communicates that they will be open and able to accept deliveries during that time. In many cases, you will need to communicate with the department to find out when someone will be available to accept the order, and who you should contact to get into the building, which will most likely be locked.

In addition to the winter closure, Stanford University observes the following holidays:
