How are map prints packaged?

All of our printed maps are given the “royal treatment” and are carefully rolled and wrapped in high quality craft paper, with an elegant satin ribbon tied around, along with your packing slip. Each item is then placed in a durable shipping tube.

How many maps may ship in one package?

If you are ordering one map, it will ship in one tube.

If you are ordering two or more maps:
When ordering 2 maps, both maps will ship in one tube unless otherwise arranged, ahead of time.
We do this in order to save you further cost as shipping rates have increased significantly.
**If you would like each of the maps to be placed in a separate tube, additional shipping cost will be required. Please let us know if you would prefer this option ahead of time at fulfillment@vinmaps.com.
**In order to ensure that your maps arrive safely, a maximum of 2 maps may ship in one tube.
**If you are ordering 10 or more maps please contact us for assistance as we can also provide boxed shipping of tubed, packaged maps. We can figure out the best shipping experience for your particular order.

May I have my maps printed to different dimensions?
VinMaps are designed using advanced mapping technology. Though we strive toward standard sizes, VinMaps are custom, stylized pieces of informative art. Due to the natural geography of certain regions, for the sake of accuracy and design choice some maps are made outside of the 24″ x 36″ ratio. Refer to Custom Maps if you are interested in other options.
CUSTOM MAPS

We’d like one of your maps to be printed to a smaller or larger size. Is this possible?

We can print any of our titles to smaller or larger sizes, on a case by case basis.

Keep in mind, going up or down in size is done on a percentage decrease or increase basis in order to ensure proper scale and proportion of the original piece.

If you would like a custom size, this will require a new map design and build from the ground up.

Please contact us at concierge@vinmaps.com for further assistance.

I would like to have VinMaps® create a custom map for me.  How do I get started?

For further information, please contact us at concierge@vinmaps.com.

Please include detailed information regarding what you would like your map to include.  Once we have reviewed your email we will be in touch with any further questions we may have for you.
