Boston Pack and Ship offers 10% discount to non-profits, 501(c)(3) charities.

April 11, 2008 - PRLog -- When it comes to budgets, non-profits and 501(c)(3) charities don’t exactly compete on a level playing field with other private sector businesses. Yet the contributions these organizations and charities make are invaluable to both individuals and communities. So, in an effort to level that playing field just a bit, Boston Pack and Ship, a Braintree-based small load packing and shipping specialist, has come up with a special 10 percent discount for non-profits and 501(c)(3) charities.




Non-profits and 501(c)(3) charities can apply the 10 percent discount off the total price of any packing or shipping job Boston Pack and Ship does. Services covered by the 10 percent discount includes: customized packaging using either double-wall, corrugated boxes, custom-built wood crates, pick-up of items to be shipped, storage, …other services you want to apply this to.




“Like any other business, non-profits from time to time require the services of small load specialists like Boston Pack and Ship. Whether it’s for moving your office, shipping computer equipment or electronic items to another office in this country or internationally or even short-term storage space. We offer competitive prices, but even that can stretch a non-profit’s budget for a moving project. By offering the 10 percent discount, we’re making it easier for non-profits to better afford our services,” said Joe Fell, co-owner of Boston Pack and Ship.




To be eligible for the discount, non-profits and 501(c)(3) charities, must be able to produce paperwork authenticating the organization’s not-for-profit status. The 10 percent discount will apply to the total purchase prior to taxes.




“As members of the business community and residents of the South Shore, we know and appreciate the many services these non-profits provide,” said Fell. “By offering this discount, we’re just looking to do our small part to help these organizations continue the fine work they do.”
