I have used Denver Digital Imaging (formerly, The SlidePrinter) -
http://www.theslideprinter.com/ -  for years. Most of my film work
today is in medium format, but with them I have never had a problem
with fast, efficient service and excellent work in either medium or
35mm format.

I'm not sure how they handle Kodachrome - in spite of its superior
quality and archival properties, Kodak forced me to give up on it
years ago.

take slides and when everything went to Dwayne's in Parsons, KS
several years ago the service actually improved over what it had been
thru Fuji in Phoenix (I gave up on Kodak's service years ago) even
Fuji was pretty good. Suddenly that changed. I'd mail slide film on a
Monday, Dwayne's would have it on Wednesday, process it and get it out
that day or the next, and then it would take 2 to 3 weeks to get the
slides back. After much back & forth with the POs on both ends, our
regional mail center in Milwaukee, and with Dwayne's applying pressure
on their end, things turned around and service is excellent again.
That took about 2 years. Now, the PO never really told me where the
problem was but obviously someone was sitting on the slides somewhere
between Parsons and Oconomowoc, WI where my PO is. I suspect the
problem was in Milwaukee where I know the workers were trying to get
the PO to hire more people and there also some problems with
supervisors, sick days, etc.but I don't know that. Anyway, that's my
experience.

is likely located at the center that gets the stuff from all over and
then sends it to your PO.
