Timelines

We pride ourselves on quick turnarounds without missing deadlines. Each job has a custom timeline but below is an overview of our general timelines to help you gauge your project due dates. If your project has a specific due date, please let us know ahead of time or we will gauge your project on the timelines below. (All days below are working days. We run 1-2 shifts, Monday-Friday)

  • Design: 2+ Days. Depends on complexity and schedules
  • Digital Printing: 3-7 Days. Includes small runs, under 13x19 sheets flat, very small mailings
  • Offset Printing: 7-10 Days
  • Bulk Mailing: 7-10 Days + Postal Days, which we can't control. Our mailing dept. can assist on the best days to mail to hit your target dates.
  • Promotional Items: 10-14 Days
  • Specialty Papers: Please allow an additional 3-5 days if your job requires specialty paper to be imported.
  • Photography / Video: Please schedule 2 weeks out. Turnaround is usually 5-7 business days for photos and video on a per-project basis.
  • Fulfillment: Pick and ship dates vary depending on dates established at the time of fulfillment setup. Typically, we pick orders 2-3x per week on average.

Shipping days are not included in the times above. The due date you give us will include shipping times so your project arrives on time.
