Completing The Puzzle

How to Do 30 Puzzles a Year Without Storing a Single One

A Completing The Puzzle mailer and a resealable bag of puzzle pieces

You do a jigsaw puzzle once. Then you own it forever. Completing The Puzzle got rid of that second part.

It is a puzzle rental service. A hand-picked puzzle shows up in the mail with a prepaid return label already inside. You finish it, drop it back in the mailbox, and the next one goes out.

Here is how it works:

You take a 60-second quiz about how you like to puzzle. They match you from a library of 1,300+ puzzles across 40+ premium brands, so you keep getting things you would never have picked off a store shelf.

Every puzzle that comes back gets tumbled, air dried, disinfected with UVC light, run through HEPA filtration, and then counted by hand. Any puzzle missing a piece is retired, not passed along.

Shipping is free both ways and there is no limit on how many you go through. Most members finish 2 to 3 a month. Buying those outright runs about $74 with shipping. Membership starts at $28.

The best part is the part nobody expects. You know a puzzle is coming, but not which one. As one member put it: "it feels like a present is coming."
