Newsprint Prices

TURNAROUND TIMES:

Newsprint orders of 500 and less are completed and out the door within 3 business days after the order is placed. For any order over 500 copies, the order is completed and out the door within 4 business days after the order is placed.

Transit times begin on the day your order is shipped.

Example: If an order is placed on a Thursday for 100 copies, UPS Ground, the order will be shipped no later than Tuesday of the next week (assuming there is no holidays in that time period). Ground will take 2 to 5 business days from the day your order is shipped.

If you have a regular printing schedule (weekly, bi-monthly, monthly) we can put you on the schedule for faster turn-around (contact Customer Service). 

UPS Shipping: We offer UPS Ground, 2nd Day, and Next Day Air delivery. UPS declares that ground is delivered within 2 to 5 days depending upon delivery location. UPS does not necessarily deliver on weekends, so it is possible that Next Day Air and 2nd Day Air will not arrive until Monday.

REGULAR VS HI-BRIGHT NEWSPRINT

Both are newspaper newsprint. Regular newsprint is the typical-looking grayish newsprint you've seen for years. Hi-bright is whiter and a bit thicker than Regular newsprint. See the image below (hover to enlarge). Paper shades will vary slightly between rolls used on the press, so Hi-Bright newspapers printed one month may vary slightly in whiteness from another print run of another month.

CUSTOM ORDERS:

Custom orders, or newspaper needs that are not listed on this price list (more than 50,000 or more than 24 pages), can be fulfilled through our Custom Order page.  If you need less than a thousand newspapers read below.

PRESS TYPES:

We utilize two different types of presses to fulfill a newsprint order. For copies of 5000 and less, we may use a digital press, and for copies over 5000, we may use an offset web-press. Both presses produce high-quality newspapers that utilize the latest safe-ink printing technology while offering the lowest pricing available.  All orders are printed on regular or hi-bright newsprint. 

There are slight differences in the way a newspaper will look depending upon what type of press is used. However, a reader, unless held side by side, will never know the difference. Also, paper rolls will vary slightly in whiteness from one roll to the next so often one print run may be slightly whiter or grayer than the next. This is normal and nothing to be alarmed by. But for the best quality print run, it is important to follow our specifications.
