Hello,

Unfortunately our supplier of Alumalite no longer drives up here to the Upper Peninsula and we Really need to find a new one. Does anyone know how we can buy alumalite & Econolite without having to buy $1500.00 worth, or pay $175 in shipping costs per 4'x8' sheet?

We live in Escanaba Michigan.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

David & Jenna Nyman

How about Midwest Neon out of Chicago. I don't know if they go up your way or not. [Smile]

Dave, We feel your pain...

We get our alumalite/econolite/coroplast from Midwest Sign & Screen Printing Supply out of Franklin, Wisc. $1000.00 order gets you free shipping.

Last month we ordered 6 sheets of coroplast and paid about $87.00 for freight.

There phone # is 1-800-242-7430

Thanks Stephen and Lee and Paula too,
We will give them (Midwest) a call and see if they are more reponsive this time around. We requested information on pricing and such twice and never heard back from them. This kind of turned us off,we will try the phone number you sent and hope for better luck this time around. [Smile]

Thanks~
