Getting Your Print Products From Point A To Point B Quickly, Reliably And Cost Effectively.

Raff Printing adopted computerized shipment tracking and full integration with regional delivery and national shipping options early on, enabling our customers to significantly improve – and lower – a regular cost of doing business.

From Here To There And Back Again, Raff Is With You With Shipping And Tracking Services!

These days, shipping and receiving is much more than bays of loading docks and rows of pallets destined for points elsewhere. At Raff Printing, we combine available warehouse and distribution space with automated tracking and delivery systems necessary to fully distribute and ship your printed materials.

We offer local and regional shipping using our own delivery trucks, while being completely integrated with the U.S. Postal Service, Federal Express and the United Parcel Service for maximum efficiency and cost-effectiveness. And since we run early morning and late afternoon split shifts, orders are shipped and received throughout the day, decreasing lead times for shipments overall.

Shipping & Mailing Customer Support FAQs

What shipping services does Raff offer?

Drop shipping, batch shipping, all classes of United States Postal Service (USPS), FedEx, UPS.

Can Raff provide batch shipping for multiple locations?

Absolutely. It’s one of the advantages of working with a full-service printer that offers equally robust full-service direct mail and distribution. We can seamlessly batch and ship packages from our Pittsburgh location if you need specific packages for multiple locations.

How fast can Raff get my order to me once production is complete?

This is a question that begins with the end result in mind—in other words, the answer depends upon when you need to have the product(s) in the hands of your customer or end user. Knowing that date drives the entire production process—not just the shipping or distribution of that product.   

That being said, we have access to (and integrate with) the same type of shipping you are familiar with—including next-day, two and three-day, ground, air, and more across all the services mentioned above within the United States and North America.

What’s more, we can deliver in person the same day within a reasonable local radius of approximately 150 miles depending upon the order size.

Can Raff provide mailing services for my print project?

Absolutely. We offer full-service mailing and fulfillment, indicia/permit and postage across all USPS classes, drop shipping, batch shipping, and complete FedEx and UPS services. Postage as a cost is a pass-through service at Raff—while billed as a separate line item above and beyond your print project, we do not mark up postage costs.

What types of mailing are offered?

See the previous question and answer. And remember that Raff has mailing capabilities comparable to any company specifically designed for direct mail operations.

Can my organization’s postage account be used for shipping costs?

Yes. Be sure to verify your permit (indicia) information is current and that you have allocated funds in your account to sufficiently cover the cost of your mailing project.

Can Raff combine my print materials prior to mailing?

While the word “fulfillment” is often used interchangeably with types of mailing or distribution, Raff Printing defines fulfillment as any project that requires it to be touched by human hands in order to be completed.

If your multi-page project, special kit or dimensional mailer requires hand stuffing, unique folding or additional preparation that cannot be done automatically by machine, Raff can scale up to large-run hand-executed fulfillment rapidly. And we have decades of experience doing so!

How can we put our remarkable variety of printing presses and experience to work for you?

I’ve been at Raff Printing for 32+ years. It has been a long and interesting journey — it’s more like working with family rather than fellow employees. I think ultimately that’s the Raff secret.

I enjoy working here with the people I work with every day. We’ve got father-and-son teams working here and there, including our ownership. That says something about a place. Raff is just a nice company to work for.
