880: a day sooner

Las Cruces, Mesilla, Doña Ana, Organ, Radium Springs, Santa Teresa, Sunland Park, Chaparral, Anthony and Deming all have ZIP codes that start with 880.

Nearby, but standard

Hatch is an 879 ZIP and Alamogordo is 883, so they ship on the standard 2 business days. Check the first three digits of the shipping address, not the county.

Retirements at the range and on campus.

White Sands Missile Range, NMSU, the hospitals and the city and county offices retire long-serving people every month, and the plaque is usually ordered by a coworker with a deadline.

  • Retirement and service plaques with the name, the years and a line from the office.
  • Military and first-responder plaques take one extra business day. Names, ranks, units and dates are engraved as text, never branch seals or insignia.
  • Perpetual plaques for the department award that gets a new name every year.
