The EVE University Hauling Service moves Unistas' items for the benefit of the EVE University community. It currently services one route: Jita ↔ Isbrabata (the Lowsec Community staging system). Current rates and limitations can be found in the Freight module on Alliance Auth.

Service Cost

The hauling service cost is greatly subsidized for use to all Unistas. There is a mandated contribution rate, which you can calculate with the freight calculator in the Freight module on Alliance Auth. This helps your hauler cover the operation of the service such as cynos and fuel. If you are a new Unista and are short on funds, please contact the hauling department to have your goods moved at no cost to you. The shortfall in funds is generously covered by the Uni.

As this is a subsidized service, we ask that it is not used for profit. This service is designed to benefit our communities and support our teaching and learning mission.

Packaging Limits

Current volume and value limits per package can be found in the Freight module on Alliance Auth. If your items exceed them, split them into multiple packages. Always state the value of your cargo in the contract description (see below).

Packaging Requirements

• Your contract must not have any assembled containers, modules, or ships. Right-click everything, select "repackage". If you do end up shipping assembled containers, modules, or ships, significant effort is required to get the contents back to you once accepted as these cannot be shipped and must be exchanged back in the originating station.
• High volume PI (P0 or P1) or cheap minerals (e.g., tritanium) is not supported for transport.

Supported Stations and Structures

• [HUB] Jita IV - Moon 4 - Caldari Navy Assembly Plant
• [LSC] Isbrabata VIII - Moon 5 - Republic Security Services Assembly Plant

The Hauling Service supports only the stations listed above. Ad-hoc shipments to other stations are not offered.

Frivolous, low ISK density packages will not be hauled at the discretion of the hauling service. In this case the contract will be failed and the package contracted back at the source location to the contractor with an explanation.

Shipping Schedule

Trips are generally done when one or more of these conditions are met:

• Enough m³ to fill up a ship in either direction
• Enough contracts to warrant immediate delivery

We will also use our judgement on what packages we combine and which we ship alone; we will not exceed internally directed cargo value limits. Please consider hauling lower value or small volume loot yourself with guidance from the community. If something is of a timing priority, we encourage utilizing priority shipments with PushX or Red/Purple/Black Frog.

How to setup contracts

• Pickup Station must be one of the approved stations above
• Make a courier contract
  • Make it a private contract.
  • Send the contract to "Ivy League Transport" (corporation).
  • Select the items to be included in the Courier Contract with the limits stated above.
  • Destination Station must be one of the approved stations above.
  • Collateral is optional. If you choose to add collateral, it must be priced exactly at the Jita Sell value of the contract's contents, evaluated with Janice.
  • Set the shipping cost (reward) using the freight calculator in the Freight module on Alliance Auth.
  • Set expiration to maximum (4 weeks).
  • Set days to complete to maximum (365 days - the box is very small on the UI but this can be typed or pasted in).
  • Enter in the description field
    • The value of the cargo (e.g., 600M). This lets us know whether we can combine packages in a trip.
      • Round UP to the nearest million
      • Abbreviate Million (M), Billion (B)
      • Examples: 1.25B, 233M, 1M
    • If you are shipping via an alt, you must provide your E-UNI main (e.g., "650M (Xobekk Gao)") - note that due to game mechanics, your alt may not see an E-UNI structure. If your alt is not able to select the destination, then try it using your E-UNI main
