Brussels - Copy shop
 
Not a travel question - but I am hoping that a Brussels resident can help me. I have an upcoming meeting in Brussels and am in need of a 24 hour print shop (I'll have about 7,500 copies to be made overnight). I need the equivalent of a 24hour Kinkos - so I can email the document in the early hours of the am and the shop can do the copies and deliver them to the hotel by 08:00.

Any assistance appreciated - I have used Mr Google but have not had a lot of success.

Yes, ask your hotel for help. I'd be very surprised if you find a copy shop that's open 24 hours in Brussels.

You could try this one; www.allps.be who seem to have several shops in Brussels (from the yellow pages).

Many thanks. I did ask the hotel and was told that printing/copy palces only open at 09:00.

I will contact the suggestions.

Once again many thanks

You may find that there aren;t any.

But- you don;t say what hotel you're staying at. If it is a sold 4* business hotel - and the concierge said that - it's probably so.

(I've done many meetings in europe and most cities simply don;t have the 24 hour office services you find in big cities in the US. When we had a large meeting we would always set up our own office, rent equipment from the hotel or other supplier and bring our own staff.)

You are asking for a lot.

Original delivered by email in the early hrs of the am, 7500 copies (even if just 1 page doc) delivered to hotel by 8:00. That's not a job for a small, corner copy center.

Agree - am asking A LOT. Have done this in NY and London - worked like a dream. A local print shop recommended allpes - whcih was also suggested by Tulips - I have an email into them - will see what response I get.

The hotel has indicated that they can do it overnight - for a price - but I am concerned as to whether they really do have the capacity. And yes it is a decent 4* business hotel.

Thanks again for all the suggestions.
