Owned by Martina McPaul, Atlantic Office Services not only provides services for local businesses and organizations, but also for visitors to the Bethany Beach area. Hours are 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. from Monday through Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon.

The McPauls and their staff handle many tasks that small businesses and organizations either don't have the capabilities to handle in-house or would find it too costly to tackle themselves.

We ship all over the world through FedEx or UPS. Most of our printing business is devoted to fliers, business cards, invitations and tide charts. The fax service comes in handy for tourists on working vacations or in need of faxing documents around the world.

The answering service catches those calls that small, mobile businesses would miss because they're out in the field during the day. "When people miss calls -- especially business people -- they often miss money," says Martina McPaul.
