All of our delivery methods require a signature. Please keep this in mind when stating your shipping address. If no one is there to sign for the delivery, a notice is left with instructions on where the package can be picked up. Alternatively, you might consider shipping to your workplace, if possible.
* Unfortunately, BCIT Bookstore cannot track shipping with Canada Post (P.O. boxes). The shipment will be sent to you at your own risk. This means if your shipment is lost, you will have to reorder and purchase again.
** Online orders are ready for pick up 2 business days after your order is placed and will be held for 90 days. We will attempt to contact you at the email address you provided us if your order has not been picked up by this time, after which any unclaimed purchases will either be recycled or reabsorbed into inventory without refund.
***Can't make it in during our regular business hours? After hours pick up at the BCIT Library is available. Please contact the Bookstore for details.
Need a textbook for your Surrey, Langley or other satellite location course?
BCIT Bookstore will waive the courier fee, once per term, for mandatory textbooks for BCIT students enrolled at BCIT satellite locations (not Burnaby or Downtown). If you are taking multiple courses in a single term, order your books all at once to save on the shipping fee.
