Breakfast, anyone?

Baker’s Breakfast Cookies are on the menu. The Bellingham, WA, bakery shipped the 12 millionth package using Carrier Pickup Online Notification.

When orders come in for a cookie sample pack, Baker’s Breakfast uses Carrier Pickup to ship about 25 packages every day.

“We’re still learning the ins and outs of the Postal Service,” says shipping manager Aleta Roberts, who recently switched from a competing shipper. She appreciates the ability to schedule pickups up to three months in advance.

“That’s really a nice feature for us,” says Roberts. “Sometime we have up to 150 orders a day and Carrier Pickup helps us stay focused on the business.”

“Features like Carrier Pickup allow the Postal Service to stay competitive with new and existing businesses,” says Bellingham Postmaster Darrell Smith. “Showing appreciation for their business can mean a long-term, loyal and happy customer.
