Automatic Pickup

UPS Smart Pickup® combines the convenience of a recurring pickup with the flexibility of an on-demand pickup. We’ll come to your business only when you have a package to ship. UPS Smart Pickup is our most environmentally friendly scheduled pickup option.

How To Schedule a UPS Smart Pickup

When you process a shipment using UPS.com shipping, UPS WorldShip® or UPS CampusShip® , the system automatically notifies a UPS driver to stop by that same business day to pick up all prepared packages.
