Parcels

Now you can send your favorite college student a hip, unique and much-appreciated care package through Orange County-based Parcels.

The start-up company specializes in personalized college kits for holidays, special occasions or just because.

Parcels founder Monica Cottam, mother of four (three currently in college), says that when her kids started school she received a lot of advertising from companies offering care packages, but the boxes were filled with junk.

So she searched for a better alternative and couldn’t find one. That’s when she decided to launch Parcels.

“It wasn’t that hard to come up with care packages that were more creative, with better food choices and actually have items included that my kids would use,” Cottam says. “Plus each care package had true homemade treats in them that the kids love!”

Parcels allows you help motivate and support your hard-working student during their school year with a care package to get them through finals, or send some joy during the holidays or birthdays. They also carry sorority specific packages for girls.

Just for Valentine’s Day, let him/her know how sweet they are by sending a You Are the Sweetest Thing for Gals or You Are the Sweetest Thing for Guys care packages that include delicious B. Toffee; See’s Candy goodie bag filled with chocolate hearts, cinnamon red hots and sour gummy hearts; snacks-a-plenty including dark chocolate covered pretzel slims, tempting trail mix and 18 Rabbits Gracious Granola, and much more. The cost is $60.

Parcels have a variety of care packages to choose from, and you can customize the packages for the perfect gift. The company also takes care of the shipping.

You can call 949.645.1878 or order online.
