Shipping Tips

Listen, Don't Read

Due to the nature of our service we understand that your recordings are very delicate and have a priceless value. If you are uncomfortable with sending your recordings through the mail we have some suggestions about that. Use the instructions here to insure a successful delivery.

You may not want to package your albums yourself so check with a local shipping outlet and they may be able to package and ship them for you.
If you do package them yourself you may save that cost.
Media Mail by USPS is a service that can be less expensive. Always inquire and you may save.
Insured Mail provides coverage against loss or damage. NO CLAIM Payments are made for sentimental losses or for any expenses incurred as a result of the loss.
Check what you want us to transfer is included in your shipment. All records, tapes, covers, etc...
Remove any posters, booklets or unnecessary items that came with the albums/tapes.
Include a check list in the package so we can verify what you have sent (album titles and quantity).
Include your name, address and phone number in the check list.
Include special instructions, recommendations or information you want us to know about.
For Compilation Discs include a song list with album titles and what order to transfer them.
Include graphics, photographs or notes about what you want to put on the cover design.
Include your check or money order for your purchase and place all the accompanying information in an envelope and place it on top of the albums/tapes before you wrap them up.
Sort the albums or tapes in lots of 10. PLEASE SHIP ONLY TEN (10) ALBUMS/TAPES PER PACKAGE.
When packing your albums/tapes they should have a good cushion about one (1) inch thick of bubble wrap around them. If there is a chance for the albums to slide around in the box, this may cause damage.
Do NOT tie them with string or wire. Use bubble wrap around the items enclosing then completely.
Tape the foam or bubble wrap to itself not the album/tape covers.
Place the wrapped items into a cardboard box with no freedom to move around. You may have to add small bits of bubble wrap to take up any excess space, but don`t cram to much into the box, the records may warp. Cushion them as evenly as possible to avoid any problems.
Using packing tape, seal all sides of the box where the flaps meet so it has no chance of opening.
Clearly address your package and include your return address on the outside label.
You're ready to go to the post office and send your package(s).
PURCHASE INSURANCE WHEN SHIPPING YOUR PACKAGE. YOU ESTIMATE THE VALUE.
