Our three facilities in Plattsburgh NY, Lebanon NH and Williston VT are equipped to service the entire greater Northeast, and we understand that some of our clientele have to travel long distances in order to hand-deliver their samples within EPA hold time. To help with this, there are several alternative ways of delivering samples to our labs.
The condition of your samples upon delivery is very important. Please visit our Transporting Samples page to learn more about what needs to be done to have reliable and accurate data.

Sample Delivery
Standard Delivery services are economical, but can take more than one day to reach the laboratory. Besides hold time problems, it is extremely difficult to keep samples cold, or prevent them from freezing in the winter, for more than 24 hours in shipment.
- USPS: Although very convenient, USPS can take 2 or more days to deliver a package. Check with your Post Master about expected delivery time. Priority Mail can be expensive and still is not guaranteed to deliver the next day.
- UPS: UPS ground delivery almost always delivers the next day if you are within a three hour drive of the laboratory. However that can be delayed, without warning, around the holidays. Next Day delivery is very reliable but also expensive.
Same-Day Delivery services are more expensive than Standard Delivery shipments but often less expensive than next day air delivery. Check if there’s a route available in your area.
