Santa’s Elves Enlist The Mail Box Store, A Packing Store in Bethalto, IL to Help with Christmas

Bethalto, Il. - FedEx and UPS expect to set record numbers in package volume this Christmas, which means the elves at the North Pole are going to need some extra help. The Mail Box Store, a packing store in Bethalto, IL is prepared to help Santa’s elves get Christmas packages packed and shipped where they need to go this holiday season.

The Mail Box Store has three locations in Madison County, including recently acquired Post Pack and Ship in O’Fallon, Illinois in October and rebranded it as The Mail Box Store. Several services were added to the acquisition, giving customers more of a one-stop-shopping experience.

Packing and shipping will be at the top of the list over the next month as people look for a solution to getting their gifts into the hands of relatives all over the country and the world.

Eliot Deters, president, and CEO of The Mail Box Store said this is a season they are ready for. “This is like our Super Bowl,” Deters said. “We prepare for this season all year long. We’re excited and pumped up to serve our communities and solve any shipping needs they may have. Our certified staff has been trained at the national level in packing and shipping to better serve our customers.”

Shippers are encouraged to ship early in December from a shipping store in Bethalto, IL to avoid higher costs for express shipping as Christmas approaches. “There’s a bigger time crunch this year with Thanksgiving being later in November that may catch some people off guard,” said Barry Pfeiffer, manager and director of store operations. “The earlier you can buy and ship your Christmas gifts, the less likely you’ll have to ship them two-day or overnight to arrive by Christmas.”

The Mail Box Store also recommends getting a signature required on Christmas shipments. This prevents porch pirates from stealing packages since the carrier is required to obtain a signature from the recipient to release the package.
