Shipping Tips (Royal Mail)
Feel free to use whichever courier service that is most convenient for you, but here is the best practice for getting your film quickly and safely...
 
Best parcel types: A padded jiffy bag or something sturdy like cardboard packaging (anything paper may rip in ythe post and lose your film!) 
 
How to send: Make sure to ship your film as a 'small parcel' to avoid extra shipping fees from the Royal Mail. This can be done online, taking your film to your local post office or using 5/6 stamps.
 
What to put in your parcel: Along with your film, make sure to leave a note with your name and order number so we can identify your parcel when it arrives and get your images as soon as possible. 
 
Address:
The Film Safe,
Unit 80 Basepoint 
Andersons Road

Turnaround times
This process is slightly more manual, so our turnaround for developing and scanning is 10 working days. But we have now perfected our process to remove the protective remjet layer and develop your ECN-2 film!
 
Whilst we do our absolute best to get your images back to you by the provided turnaround dates, these are projections so there can be a day's delay with these. If we are behind with your order this will be our priority the following day!
