About us
Welcome to SR Mailing.
I want to share with you why this place exists — and why you’re now an important part of it. 12 years ago, SR Mailing was just a tiny idea. We didn’t have a big warehouse, a polished mission statement, or even much of a plan.
What we did have was a belief: the world didn’t need just another packaging company. It needed a better one.
Better for the people who work here. Better for the customers we serve. Better for the planet we all share.
We started small. We made mistakes, learned fast, and kept going. We built products that were smarter and greener. We treated customers like family. And we stood by each other, through the good times and the tough ones. Slowly but surely, we grew.
From one tiny office to 54,000 square feet. From a few orders to 20,000 business customers. From a dream to a team — 22 strong and still growing. Today, everything we do is guided by one promise:
For our people and our planet.
That means:
● We grow our people by giving opportunities, challenges, and support.
● We protect our planet by making sustainability easy and accessible.
For you, before you join in as part of the team, this is more than just a slogan. It’s how we measure ourselves. It’s how we decide what’s right. It’s how we know we’re making a difference. Your ideas, your effort, your care for colleagues and customers — they matter.
They make SR Mailing stronger.
And together, they help us build a better future.
