About East Coast Blueprints
East Coast Blueprints is a printing service built specifically for the architects, engineers, and contractors of the East Coast. We ship same-day plan sets — ARCH C, ARCH D, ARCH E, 30x42 engineering, and standard sizes — from our Cape May County, NJ production hub to job sites and offices up and down the coast.
Why we exist
If you've ordered plan sets from a national print chain, you know the pattern: the "same-day" promise that quietly becomes two days. The pricing that creeps when you add finishing. The line at the counter when you walk in to pick up. The file that comes back at the wrong scale.
We built East Coast Blueprints because the AEC industry deserves better. A printing service designed around how architects, engineers, and contractors actually work — not around a strip-mall print shop's general business. Online ordering as easy as anything else you use. Real production capacity behind it. Real people on the other end of the phone.
What we do
We print blueprints, construction documents, permit sets, bid sets, spec books, and engineering plans. Black-and-white or full color on 20# bond; heavier stock, vellum, and mylar by quote. Single sheets or fifty-set bid distributions shipped to twelve different job-site addresses. Folded, stapled, three-hole-punched, or bound. Order by noon Eastern time and we ship that same day via UPS — next-day delivery to NJ, NY, PA, DE, and most of MD. Flat $15 shipping, free over $100.
Who we serve
Architects working on permit sets and bid distributions. General contractors who need field copies that hold up on the jobsite. Civil engineers shipping 30x42 site plans to developers and municipalities. MEP firms running color-coded coordination drawings. Real estate developers pushing entitlement packages through the planning board. Spec book and submittal printing for project teams. If your work touches a building, we probably print for someone like you.
What sets us apart
One promise, kept. Order by noon Eastern, ships same day via UPS for next-day delivery to the closest states. We chose noon as the cutoff because it's a deadline we can hit reliably — not because it's the latest cutoff anyone has ever advertised. Your project schedule depends on the print arriving when we said it would.
Transparent pricing. Every per-sheet price is on the pricing page. Volume discount at 25 sheets of the same size. Flat shipping. No rush fees, no file-prep fees, no minimum order. What you see is what you pay.
Files treated as confidential. Every uploaded plan set is treated as a confidential business document. Access is limited to the production staff who fulfill your order. NDA available on request before you upload anything.
Scale accuracy, guaranteed. Calibrated large-format plotters designed for architectural and engineering output. Upload a 24x36 PDF at 1:1 scale, you get a 24x36 print at exactly 24x36. If a print arrives off-scale because of our error, we reprint at no charge.

A note from the owner
I started East Coast Blueprints because the East Coast AEC community deserves a printing partner that gets the work. Not a national chain treating plan sets like office paper. Not a strip-mall shop that closes at five. Something purpose-built: an online ordering experience that respects your time, backed by a real production facility in southern New Jersey with real people who pick up the phone.
If you want to try us, start with a single sheet — there's no minimum, and an ARCH D is $2.00. If you want to talk first, call (929) 464-5714 or email info@ecblueprints.com. We answer.
