Shipping Policy

Order Processing

Our normal business hours are Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. E.S.T. (with the exception of holidays). We know that you want your stencils quickly and in general we ship orders within 3 business days of receipt, and our results show that this is the case 95% of the time. This is not a guarantee and if you have an order that needs to get out by a certain day please let us know. If it has to get out in less than 1.5 days, we may charge an expedite fee to cover the incremental costs we have to get the order out. Aerosol Spray products: Due to Hazmat rules our spray products cannot be shipped outside of the Continental US. They also in some cases will generate a special handling fee.

Shipping Options

We primarily will use USPS as this is by far the least expensive shipping approach.

Rarely we have a combination of product and shipping location that causes us to incur a larger than normal shipping fee. In this case we reserve the right to offer the customer a choice of accepting a greater shipping fee or to cancel the order.  

Normal shipping times are 3-5 business days in the Continental US. You will receive an email with a tracking number once your package is shipped.

If you want expedited shipping or prefer a specific carrier, please call us at 800-334-1776. We will work with you to get the package to you on time and at as reasonable price that we can get.

For international shipping we will normally use USPS. Again, this is the least expensive service. At this point the customer will be required to pay any duty and local sales taxes. Given the range of our products we reserve the right to adjust shipping charges once we have the orders packaged. If there is an increase we will notify the customer and gain approval prior to shipment. For reasons that we do not understand some addresses do not go in automatically if you are international and want to order and have issues please email us.

For those who prefer the surety and do not mind the extra expense we do ship internationally with Fed Ex. Please call or email us.
