Processing time or 'In-lab time' refers to the approximate time it takes your order to make it through our lab. All of our items are hand-crafted and individually inspected before they ship out to you. Please note that your order's processing time is SEPARATE from the SHIPPING TIME of your order. When factoring in the overall turnaround time of your order, the time from when you submit the order to when it is delivered to your doorstep, you do want to factor in the processing time PLUS the shipping time. Please remember that Standard, Expedited, Express Saver, and Express shipping options do not expedite the production process, only the shipping time once the package has left the lab. Business days for the Express delivery service are Monday-Friday only. For more information regarding our shipping methods and shipping time, please review our Shipping FAQ.
Please also note that if your order contains a large number of items, this could extend your order's overall production turnaround time by an additional few days. If you have a specific deadline regarding your order and are unsure if you will receive it on time, please do not hesitate to call us at 888-507-5755 or email us at info@schoolprints.com, or message us via live chat!
Any order received after 2 PM EST (on any given business day, Monday through Friday) is considered to have arrived on the following business day. Orders submitted before 2 PM EST will begin production the same day. Furthermore, please advise that one business day is one full 24-hour period. For example, Monday to Tuesday is day 1, Tuesday to Wednesday is day 2, Wednesday to Thursday is day 3, and so forth!
Special Instructions provided in an order must be reviewed by Customer Service. Therefore, providing instructions with an order may add a day of processing to your order.
