Shipping & Delivery Times

In stock items ship from our Neenah, WI fulfillment center within 24 hrs of receiving your order (excluding weekends and holidays). Typically, orders placed by 1:00 pm central time, Monday through Friday, ship same day for in stock items.

Orders that contain both in stock and out of stock items, will ship complete once all products are available. If you require a partial shipment to meet your project deadlines, your order can be split for a nominal $25 fee.

Your order may ship via UPS or common carrier truck at our discretion. All shipping transit times are estimates provided by our carriers and are calculated on transit during business days. The Paper Mill Store does not guarantee delivery dates. Many circumstances beyond our warehouse (and therefore beyond our control) can affect shipping deliveries. You can be sure that we will always do our best to get you your paper and envelopes when you want them.

When you have a project schedule please make sure to add this to your order within "Special Instructions" and we will use this information to do our best to meet your schedule. Rural and remote areas of the country sometimes experience longer delivery schedules and should be taken into account in your project planning.

If we are able to make the revision, you would be responsible for any additional correction fees as assessed by the carrier.

Shipping Options

Parcel Shipments

We use UPS as our main parcel carrier and USPS for all sample and swatchbook deliveries. Expedited shipping options are also available.

LTL Shipments

Less Than Truckload (LTL) shipments are used for larger orders. Destinations for larger orders must be able to accept trucks.

For all LTL shipments, it is your responsibility to inspect the shipment upon delivery. If damage is visible, it must be noted on the delivery receipt and with the driver of the freight carrier. Failure to notate damages may result in less or no reimbursement for the loss of product.

Ship on Your Account

We offer shipping with FedEx and other common carriers when you use your own shipping account. This option is available during checkout.

NOTE: Additional costs may apply. See our large item surcharge for more details.

Eco-Shipping Materials

We carefully choose the materials we use to ship your packages.

We strive to reduce the amount of material we use in each order but at the same time make sure that your paper and envelope order will arrive in perfect condition.

50% Recycled Boxes

For packing materials we use:

  • 50% recycled fiber shipping boxes
  • 13% recycled plastic filler

We use very high quality packing materials. Please re-use them.
