I received the following info in both FAX and e-mail form today. Apparantly, DHL will cease delivery of prints to/from DeLuxe Film Services on October 31st.
I don't know if this affects DHL nationwide, (USA) or just here in Northern California.
Text of e-mail & FAX follows:
From: Lindseyxxxxx@etsdirect.com Date: October 10, 2008 4:01:04 PM PDT To: Jimc5304xxxxx (addresses edited to protect from spammers)
Subject: ***IMPORTANT NOTICE*** ***DHL CEASING DFS SERVICES OCTOBER 31ST***
Good Afternoon,
I regret to inform you that DHL has informed Deluxe Film Services that they are ceasing operations and will no longer be able to service your theatre after October 31st.
Please keep in mind that this letter only addresses prints that ship from Deluxe Film Services via DHL; we are not aware of how this decision affects other DHL business that you may be utilizing.
This decision was solely made by DHL, not Deluxe Film Services. Any questions or concerns can be addressed to your local DHL representative or myself.
Since the end of the month is fast approaching, you need to begin finding a local carrier to deliver your prints to and from your theatre.
If you do not find a local film carrier by the end of the month, there will be no way for your theatres to receive prints from the local DFS depot.
Below is a list of carriers that currently service other theatres out of the DFS San Francisco depot. Feel free to contact them and compare rates to determine which will best suite your shipping needs. Please note that you are not required to use one of the carriers listed below.
- - A LONG LIST OF LOCAL COURIER SERVICES WAS INSERTED HERE - -
Like you did previously with Theatre Transit, you are to set up an account with a carrier who will pick up your prints from our depot, deliver them to your theatre and then return them to our depot after your engagement. Any shipping related questions will be directed towards the carrier as the carrier is employed directly by you, the theatre, not Deluxe Film Services.
Once you have chosen which local film carrier to use, please notify me immediately so I can update the DFS system. It is very important that DFS has accurate carrier information for your theatre(s) to guarantee you receive the correct prints in a timely manner.
Please contact me with any questions about this matter. Thank you.
