Serving Minneapolis and the Twin Cities
Proof and Details
MSE Printing offers pick and pack services for selecting items, matching quantities, packing orders and preparing shipments. Define the item references, packing instructions and shipping requirements for your project.
Provide your SKU or item list, available stock quantities and a sample order file. Use distinct references for sizes, colors and versions, and state whether quantities mean individual pieces, bundles or complete kits. Separate superseded printed materials from the versions that should ship.
Specify the arrangement of products, brochures, samples and other inserts. Describe required bags, boxes, dividers or protective materials, and flag fragile, unusually sized or specially handled items for review. Discuss an approved sample pack when fit or presentation needs particular attention.
Include recipient names, full shipping addresses and any agreed order references or label details. Confirm the accepted order format and change procedure. Name a contact for shortages, damaged stock, unclear addresses and substitutions, and agree when an affected order should wait for instructions.
Review shipping methods, destinations and the handling and handoff schedule before setting customer delivery expectations. Share required arrival dates and allow for carrier transit after dispatch. Confirm order submission, inventory reporting, storage needs, returns and any system connections in the project scope.
Trusted Print Partner
Pick and pack brings the required items together for each recipient. Unlike an identical kit prepared in a batch, one order may contain a brochure and two products while another needs different items or quantities.
The useful starting point is an agreed item list and a sample order. Match product names or SKUs to the available stock, then describe packing, labeling and exception instructions before orders enter the workflow.
Use a distinct SKU or item reference for each size, color or version. Separate old and current printed materials so order instructions identify the intended piece.
State the quantity of each item per order, including inserts and samples. An approved example helps clarify whether quantities refer to individual pieces, bundles or complete kits.
Explain how components should be arranged and identify any required bags, boxes, dividers or protective materials. Discuss a sample pack when presentation or fit is especially important.
Decide who answers questions about shortages, damaged stock, unclear addresses or changed orders. Confirm whether affected orders should wait for instructions rather than assuming substitutions are permitted.

Pick and pack follows the contents of an individual order, so items and quantities can vary by recipient. Kitting combines specified components into a defined set. Share your order examples so MSE can discuss which approach fits the project.
Send the item or SKU list, product dimensions, expected order volume, typical items per order, packaging needs and destinations. Include storage requirements, stock arrival dates and your requested shipping schedule. These details help define handling and pricing.
Provide a sample order file showing the order reference, item identifiers, quantities and complete recipient addresses. Confirm the accepted format, submission process and change procedure with MSE before sending live orders. If you use an online store, name the platform so order transfer options can be reviewed.
Packaging and printed inserts can be discussed as part of the order. Specify dimensions, artwork, materials, quantities and which recipients receive each insert. Availability, production timing and packing instructions need approval before fulfillment begins.
Start with consistent item references and a clear quantity for every order line. Identify variants and specify any permitted alternatives. Ask MSE to confirm the selection and quantity checks for your project before orders begin.
Agree on an exception contact and instructions before work starts. Your plan should explain whether to hold the affected order, request corrected information or use an approved alternative. Also confirm how stock questions and order changes will be communicated.
Shipping arrangements depend on package size, weight, destination, stock availability and the agreed handling schedule. Share any required arrival date early. Confirm dispatch timing and carrier options with MSE, allowing for transit time after the shipment is handed over.
