When should I order Christmas printing to make sure it arrives on time?

Give yourself a comfortable buffer during the holiday rush and order at least two to three weeks before you need your prints in hand. December is the busiest stretch for both print shops and carriers, so earlier is always safer.

• Order two to three weeks ahead so production and shipping both have room.
• Placing your order by early December leaves a cushion for holiday carrier delays.
• Account for mailing time on top of production if you are sending cards to a list.
• Rush options can help if you are cutting it close, though they cost more during peak season.
