We Can Become Your Shipping Department
UPV Shipping helps local businesses pack, process and ship customer orders without maintaining a separate in-house shipping operation.
We work with online sellers, local manufacturers, subscription-box businesses, gift companies, home-based businesses and other organizations that need dependable recurring shipping support.
Orders received and ready before the scheduled carrier pickup are generally shipped the same business day. Orders received later are normally shipped the next business day, depending on the selected carrier and service.
