Now that we’re into summer with a little more freedom to roam about, Sip and Ship encourages you to consider taking advantage of some of our convenient services to help you get things done with greater speed and ease . We’ve heard some excuses over the years, but rest assured, we almost always have the remedy.

  1. “I ran out of tape!” You don’t need tape. Open boxes don’t stand a chance when they are brought to Sip and Ship . We are happy to seal them up tight and send them on their way.
  2. “My printer ran out of toner!” No worries, Sip and Ship has plenty of toner, and our printers are ready whenever you are. You can email us your prepaid shipping labels. We can get you squared away quicker than you can say double-tall half-cafe latte with a half a pump of sugar-free vanilla.
  3. “Oh no, I already recycled the shipping box!” You don’t need the original box. We have a wide assortment of padded mailers and boxes to fit your returns.

Thank you for thinking of Sip and Ship whenever you have something to return, mail or notarize. We enjoy being your neighborhood hub and look forward to seeing you this week.
