Pick up Location and Times

The pick-up shipping option is unavailable until further notice. We require all orders to be shipped upon fulfillment.

Shipping Methods

Please note that you cannot choose a specific shipping carrier with School Prints by Nations Photo Lab. Packages will be shipped via USPS or FedEx, and the carrier is determined based on your shipping address and package criteria. 

• ECONOMY SHIPPING

Orders under a merchandise total of $49 will ship via Economy shipping for $7.95 per order. For qualified orders that reach a minimum merchandise total of $49, we offer free Economy shipping within the contiguous United States (forty-eight adjoining United States). 

Economy delivery shipments ship via USPS or FedEx and have an estimated shipping time frame of 3-10 business days for delivery. It is not possible to select the shipping provider.

Below are estimated Economy shipping times depending on the location:

                          

East Coast: 3-4 Business Days

Midwest: 3-6 Business Days

Southwest: 3-6 Business Days

Northwest: 4-7 Business Days

West Coast: 4-10 Business Days

• STANDARD SHIPPING

If you would like your order to arrive a little sooner than a 4-10 business day delivery time, we do have a Standard shipping delivery service you can choose for $9.95. 

Standard delivery shipments ship via USPS or FedEx and are estimated to arrive in 3-7 business days. The shipping provider cannot be selected.

• EXPEDITED & EXPRESS SHIPPING

Within the contiguous United States, you may also select to add Expedited or Express shipping to your order if you need it to arrive even sooner! Below, we have outlined the options you can choose from:

• Expedited delivery service- $14.95
• Expedited delivery shipments ship via USPS or FedEx and are estimated to arrive in 2-4 business days. The shipping provider cannot be selected.
• Express Saver delivery service- $18.95
• Express Saver delivery shipments ship via USPS or FedEx and are estimated to arrive in 1-3 business days. The shipping provider cannot be selected.
• Express delivery service - $34.95
• Express delivery shipments ship via FedEx only and are estimated to arrive in 1 business day. 

Please note the business days for the Express delivery service are Monday-Friday only. Ordering with any of the delivery services does not mean the production time will also be expedited and does not mean your order will be received within the 'delivery timeframe.' The delivery time frame noted is how long your package will take to be delivered once we have shipped it from the lab. Production times must still be factored in along with delivery times, depending on your chosen delivery service! Also, we do not offer free Standard, Expedited, Express Saver, or Express shipping on qualified orders that reach a minimum merchandise total of $49.

IMPORTANT: We only utilize two shipping companies - FedEx and USPS. FedEx Ground and FedEx Express cannot ship to PO BOX addresses.

• INTERNATIONAL/NON-CONTIGUOUS STATE SHIPPING

Orders shipping to destinations outside the contiguous United States require a custom shipping fee. Please click here for more information regarding shipping outside the contiguous United States.

Please keep in mind that the time indicated by a chosen shipping method DOES NOT include the time it takes to produce the product(s) in the lab (i.e., the product's "processing time"). For example, a print order with an Express delivery service will still need to go through its normal processing time. Once fulfilled and shipped from the lab, you will receive your package within one business day with the Express delivery service.
