Each of the campus hauling services will have their own instructions and rules, so ensure you read the thread properly and follow the instructions on setting up the courier contract.
Each of the campus hauling services will have their own instructions and rules, so ensure you read the thread properly and follow the instructions on setting up the courier contract.


You will see that the campus hauling services generally have set routes they follow on a regular basis, so to make use of them your items will need to be in one of the stations on the route. Most of the campus hauling services are free to use, because they are subsidised by the campus, but unless you are very space-poor a tip is recommended to thank the hauler for their time and to offset their costs.

Since the haulers are volunteering their time for little to no reward, most of the campus services operate on a "no collateral" basis. What this means is if their ship is destroyed and your cargo is lost, you will not be compensated for it, so you essentially bear the risk. This is of course something to bear in mind and you should ensure you are able to cover the cost of replacing your possessions in the worst case scenario.

==EVE University's Out-of-Corp Student Hauling Program==
{{Deprecated|newinfo=the above sections for the Campus Hauling Services and Expert Hauling List}}
{{Color box|color=#2B547E|border=#2B3856|'''This page should be updated.'''}}
 
Full information on this program and the rules for using it can be found on [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=80730 this forum post]. It is basically a mailing list people can subscribe to so they can be notified of courier contracts on their alt (non-EVE University) characters. The mailing list is Hauling.E-Uni and is open to the public for convenience and to allow people to join with their out-of-corp alts. However, only members of Ivy League can put up contracts through the mailing list.
 
===Using the OOC Student Hauling Program===
 
To use the program you should do the following:
 
====Setting up the courier contract====
 
Before you start see the section on [[Moving_your_items#Preparing_your_items|Preparing your items]]
 
#Click the Contracts icon on your Neocom, which looks like: [[File:Contractsicon.png|32px]]
#Click the 'Create Contract' button at the bottom of the window
#Set the contract type to 'Courier'
#Set the Availability to 'Public' (this is not completely necessary but will give your contract a better chance of being fulfilled because people can then accept it on their alt characters)
#Click 'Next'
#From the drop-down list at the top, select which station your items are in at the moment
#Check the box next to all the items you want moved (you can also use 'Select All' at the bottom)
#Click 'Next'
#Select the station you would like your items shipped to - If you type in the first three letters of the system you can search for it by clicking 'Search'
#Set a reward, which is the amount of ISK the person moving your items will received for completing the contract. See below for a guide on how much is reasonable
#Set your collateral, which is how much you will receive if the contract fails. It is very important to ensure that the collateral covers the cost of all your items. See the section on [[Moving_your_items#Calculating_collateral|Calculating Collateral]] for more information
#Set an Expiration, which is how long the contract will be up for. It is sensible to set it for as long as possible, unless you need your items moved urgently
#Set a Time to Complete, which is how long the person completing your contract has to actually complete it
#Click 'Next'
#Review to ensure all the information is correct and then press 'Finish'
#Keep the completed contract open for now as you will need to link it shortly


====Calculating collateral====
====Calculating collateral====
Line 74: Line 46:


To calculate the approximate value of your items you can use a valuing site such as [http://www.evepraisal.com/ Evepraisal]. To use it, go to your item hangar and make sure you are organising items in 'List' view in the top right. Then either select all of the items (Ctrl + A) or just the items you will be sending by contract (Ctrl + click the items you want to select) and copy them to your clipboard (Ctrl + C). Go to Evepraisal and paste the items into the box (Ctrl + V) then press submit. It is normal to value items based on their price in Jita. This will list all the items and their value, and at the bottom will give you a 'Total Sell Value' which is how much your items would be worth if you sold them. Your collateral should be at least this value.

Within the University as the Campus Hauling Services program has a 0-ISK collateral requirement, it is recommended that Unista-hauled jobs should likewise have a collateral of zero, although this is not required as this would be a private agreement.


====How much to set as a reward====
====How much to set as a reward====
Line 79: Line 53:
It is up to you how much you wish to offer as a reward for completing the contract. EVE University advice is:
It is up to you how much you wish to offer as a reward for completing the contract. EVE University advice is:


:''"Official E-UNI contracts will pay 400,000 isk per jump for up to Orca-sized contracts, and 800,000 isk per jump for freighter-sized contracts. Student contracts are free to pay whatever they wish, but are encouraged to provide a fair rate, if not the official rate. It is less than half of common commercial rates, but still enough to encourage haulers to accept the job. The payment should assume a fully hisec route if one is available. You may need to pay more to encourage people to haul through dangerous space, but it's up to you".''

====Sending a mail to the mailing list====
 
To do this:
 
#Open your mail window in-game with the mail icon on the Neocom: [[File:Evemail.png|32px]]
#Click the "Add Mailing List" button in the bottom left of the mail window
#Type in Hauling.E-Uni in the pop up box and press "Join". You will receive a welcome mail with the rules of the program
#To send a mail to the mailing list hover over the name of the mailing list in the left sidebar of your mail window, right click it and press "Send Mail to Mailing List"
#In the mail you should link your courier contract. To do this drag the courier contract icon from the contract details window (which looks like this: [[File:Contractcourier.png|32px]]) into the body of the new mail. If you have closed the contract you can find it again under the contracts button ([[File:Contractsicon.png|32px]]), "My Contracts" tab, and search by outstanding contracts. Double click on the contract to bring up the contract details window
#If your contract is larger than 20,000 m3 in volume you should state in your mail that an Orca may be required. If it is larger than 60,000 m3 you should state that a freighter may be required
#If there are no possible high sec routes to complete your contract (so it will need to go through low sec or null sec space) you should state this in your mail
#You can also add in the actual volume of your contract, number of jumps, payment, expiration date and collateral required if you want to, but this is optional
 
===Completing a courier contract through the OOC Student Hauling Program===


Anyone can join the mailing list, so you can join the list using your hauler alt to accept contracts if you like.

#Click the Contracts icon on your Neocom, which looks like: [[File:Contractsicon.png|32px]]

See the section on [[Moving_your_items#Calculating_collateral|Calculating Collateral]] for more information.
