HOW WILL MY ORDER BE SHIPPED? DO YOU OFFER EXPRESS SHIPPING OR FREIGHT??

We work with out client to ensure your orders arrive on-time. Typically, we select the option that works best for your timing and budget, but can sometimes use your preferred provider. Depending on the size of your order, it will either arrive in one of our The Box Factory shippers, or via freight on a pallet. For freight orders that will be delivered to a residence, please let us know so we can arrange for a lift gate, which will prevent any unforeseen charges.

Looking to save more on shipping? If you live close to our office, you can select Free Local Pickup at checkout. We’ll be ready to make the hand-off.

WHAT IF I’M IN A RUSH? DO YOU OFFER EXPRESS PRODUCTION?

Absolutely. For rush jobs, please give us a call at 510-462-5995 before placing your order. Our team can help set an accelerated production timeline. In addition, we can help you navigate the shipping process to ensure you find expedited shipping options that fit your budget and desired delivery date.

WHAT ABOUT DESIGN? CAN I DO IT MYSELF? ANYTHING I NEED TO KNOW?

We always accept customer designs, and have a few pointers to ensure your files are ready for printing. As a primer, you can review our design guidelines,

• Use at least 8 point text. Any smaller won’t print well.
• Opt for bold text and use just one or two inks (CMYK).
• Artwork registration to any panel can vary up to 1/8”.
• Include a 0.25” bleed in areas where graphics extent past the die line.
• Lines to be printed in a solid or dark color should be no thinner than 1 point.

And, a bit on file types:

• Any non-photographic content (like graphics and text design) are best submitted as either vector-based PDFs, or Adobe Illustrator (.ai) files. Using these file types results in crisp text and lines.
• Ensure there are no crop or cut lines.
• Check that transparencies have been flattened.
• Ensure all your fonts are embedded in the design file before saving.
• When possible, save your designs using the Adobe PDF/X-1a preset.
