Boxes & Standard Packages
The bread and butter of what we ship every day. Bring your sealed box with the label ready, or come in unpacked and we'll handle it. We compare FedEx, UPS, and USPS rates to find you the cheapest option.
Common uses: moving boxes, online order returns, gifts to family, sending tools or parts to a job site.
Documents & Envelopes
Legal documents, contracts, tax filings, certified records. USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate Envelope, FedEx Overnight, and UPS Next Day Air are all available. We'll help pick based on whether you need tracking, proof of delivery, or signature confirmation.
Fragile Items (Glass, Ceramics, Electronics)
Bring it in unpacked. We use double-boxing, foam blocking, bubble wrap, and corrugated dividers depending on the item. Items under $1,000 in declared value ship via standard carrier with insurance. Higher-value or extremely fragile items get custom crating.
Furniture & Large Items
Chairs, side tables, headboards, mirrors, lamps. Most fit in a standard custom box; larger pieces go on a pallet via LTL freight. Bring measurements and we'll quote it.

Framed art, canvas paintings, posters, and prints. We use mirror boxes, corner protectors, and acid-free wrap for canvas. Want full white-glove handling? See our dedicated Art Shipping page.

Awesome customer service! They helped me ship a fragile painting to the East Coast and packed it perfectly. Very reasonable pricing and fast turnaround. Highly recommend.

I drop off all my Amazon and eBay returns here. Always quick, friendly, and they make sure my items get scanned in properly. The team here actually cares.

Sent a heavy crate to my daughter in Florida — they quoted three carriers and saved me $80 on what UPS Store quoted. Took the time to figure out the best route. Will absolutely come back.
