Frequently Asked Questions: Dairy Packaging
What is the minimum order?
Any combination of bottles, closures or packaging products totaling $300.00 or greater.
What is involved in printing bottles?
We provide a template (electronically or a hard copy) which gives you the print area available that you can place your artwork within. We have an art department that can assist you or you can provide the finished design by email, disc or uploaded to our FTP site.
How much do bottles cost?
Bottles range in price based on size and order quantity. Prices range from as low as $0.50 to $1.00 per bottle for truckloads of quarts or half gallons and up to $3.00 per bottle for quantities of 100 bottles.
How do I pay for bottles?
First time customers pay at the time the order is placed. Terms can be established on repeat orders subject to credit application approval.
How long does it take to get an order?
Once artwork for caps and bottles is approved, your order is scheduled for production. This process takes place generally within 4 weeks depending on the current order backlog.
