New Shipping Business in Bismarck

A lot of Bismarck residents, myself included, feel like shipping options around town have gotten more complicated over the years, not less, especially after several of our USPS satellite locations closed recently. Good news, if you're looking for a way to avoid that hassle. According to KFYR TV, a new business called Oh Ship Pack and Ship, is opening in North Bismarck. The concept is pretty simple: bring in your stuff that you want to ship and they will handle the rest.

The owner, Brad Feldman, said in an interview that he wanted to offer a shipping service where they're not locked into one carrier. The store's system compares rates across multiple shipping services at once, so when you bring your item, they weigh it, measure it, and then the system pulls up all the available carrier rates side by side. This is kind of great, because then you can pick what works best for your timeline and budget.

When Will Oh Ship Pack & Ship

The source says the store will open in about two weeks. It's located at 121 E Century Ave and will offer shipping through USPS, FedEx, and Speedy Delivery, with UPS expected to come on board within the first month.
