Rush Charges
Turnaround time for jobs submitted for printing is dependent on the size of the job. For large jobs, please allow as much time for production and ordering of paper stock/printing products as possible. We will work with your schedule; however, it is extremely important to have a date specified in the "requested delivery date" area on the Printing Services Work Order.

Rush charges are added to the total cost of your printing project.
24-hour turnaround time = 30% rush charge.
2-day turnaround time = 20% rush charge.
3-day turnaround time = 10% rush charge.
