# Use self-managed shipping for Azure Data Box Disk in the Azure portal
1515

16-
This article describes the process workflow and self-managed shipping tasks to order, pick-up, and drop off of an Azure Data Box Disk device. You can manage the Data Box Disk using the Azure portal. You also have the option of choosing a point of contact from your organization, or use any carrier of your choice to pick up the Azure Data Box Disk device from a datacenter and also return the device back to the datacenter. It is important that you follow the datacenter's security procedures as sign-off is required at particular points between pickup and drop-of. At pick-up and drop-off, you, or point of contact, will be assigned an authorization code. This authorization code is needed during device pick-up and drop-off at the datacenter.
