Packing your writer

How should I pack a writer and its accessories?
Protect the LCD screen with bubble wrap or padding. Wrap or pad the writer so it fits securely in its carrying case, if you are sending one. Use the original box and packaging if they are in good condition, or a sturdy new or like-new cardboard box with foam, packing peanuts, or newspaper. Allow 2–3 inches of cushioning on every side, including above and below. Pack firmly so the writer cannot move inside the box. For service shipments, see the accessory guidance below.
How do I ship a writer without a case?
Follow the same cushioning instructions. Bubble wrap the writer or place it in a plastic bag to keep packing materials out of the machine.
Should I use a packing and shipping store?
A business such as Pack N Ship or The UPS Store can help with packing and shipping. These services can be costly: most charge a shipping premium in addition to charges for the box and packing materials.

Carriers, costs & delivery

Which carrier should I use?
UPS, FedEx, and USPS are the choices listed in our shipping FAQ. Compare cost, location, and service, and contact the carrier for details.
How do I contact a carrier?
How much will shipping cost?
The price depends on package weight, box dimensions, distance, and the service selected. Use a carrier’s online rate calculator with destination ZIP 33461. A writer with accessories is approximately 15 lb; use the actual packed weight and dimensions for your shipment. Order shipping charges are calculated at checkout unless otherwise stated.
Who pays for shipping?
Unless other arrangements have been made, the customer pays shipping, packing, and insurance. Exceptions include qualifying writer purchases with free shipping and basic insurance, applicable StenoCare contracts, and warranty repairs being returned. These exceptions use Ground shipping; the customer pays for an upgrade. Check the applicable purchase, contract, or warranty terms for your shipment.
Will you call when my writer arrives?
We do not call to confirm receipt because of the volume of packages. Keep your tracking number and check delivery online. Rental returns have a separate check-in process: a confirmation email is sent after receipt and check-in or inspection.
Are shipping and delivery dates guaranteed?
Shipping dates and delivery estimates are approximate unless StenoWorks expressly agrees otherwise in writing. Refurbished, configured, tested, customized, or built-to-order items may need additional processing before shipment. See our Shipping & Returns policy.

Insurance & signatures

Is shipping insurance included for service shipments?
For a writer shipped back after servicing, the quoted shipping charge covers transportation only. Shipping insurance is optional and must be requested before the repaired writer is shipped. The cost is approximately $1.20 per $100 of replacement value.
Do writer purchases include free shipping and insurance?
Free shipping with basic shipping insurance is available on eligible writer purchases. Review the product listing and checkout for the shipping offer that applies to your order. Upgraded shipping and optional package protection are separate from the included basic service.
What is StenoWorks Package Protection?
An optional paid add-on, powered by ShipTect, for packages that are lost, stolen, or damaged during shipping or delivery. It is selected by default on our website. You can untick it before purchasing; review the displayed price and protection information.
How does it differ from basic shipping insurance?
Eligible writer purchases include free shipping with basic shipping insurance. Carrier coverage follows the carrier’s claim process and terms. StenoWorks Package Protection lets us review and resolve a protected shipment issue directly, without waiting for the carrier’s approval. ShipTect is not an insurance company and does not decide claims.
Why would I choose Package Protection?
It gives you one familiar point of contact—StenoWorks—if a protected shipment goes wrong. After confirming loss, theft, or damage, we can arrange a replacement shipment or a full refund. If you request delivery without a signature, you accept liability for theft of the delivered package as explained below. StenoWorks determines the appropriate resolution. No specific resolution time is guaranteed.
Who do I contact about a protected shipment?
Contact StenoWorks directly at 800-399-4605 or customerservice@stenoworks.com. Our team handles the review and customer service. Keep your packaging, labels, and contents as described in our shipment-issue FAQ below.
Is a signature required when my writer is delivered?
Yes. A signature is required for all purchased writers and for serviced writers shipped back to customers. This helps ensure your writer is handed to someone rather than left unattended.
Can I request delivery without a signature?
Yes. To request no-signature delivery, send StenoWorks an email before your writer is shipped. Please identify your order or service request and clearly state that you are requesting delivery without a signature. By requesting no-signature delivery, you accept liability for theft of the delivered package rather than StenoWorks or the shipping carrier. Send your request to customerservice@stenoworks.com.
