Provo MTC Drop-Off: Arrival Times & What to Expect

Where and when

• Address: 2005 North 900 East, Provo, Utah 84602 (this is different from the MTC mailing address).
• From I-15: exit 269 from the north, exit 263 from the south.
• Arrival time: generally between 1:00 and 2:00 pm local time. Your specific time is posted about a week before on-site arrival on the official arrival information page. Come at your scheduled time.
• If you must fly in earlier, you may arrive the day before. Missionaries coming by airport shuttle should come straight from the flight.
• Running late? Call the MTC Information Desk at 385-384-2900 (24 hours).

The drop-off itself

• Only one vehicle per missionary family can enter the grounds. It should carry the missionary, their luggage and a few members of the immediate family.
• Other family members and friends can’t drive or walk onto the campus, so hold the bigger farewell earlier.
• Keep the goodbye short so everyone arriving can be welcomed.
• Tall vehicles such as RVs can’t enter the drop-off area.
