Holiday Shipping
The holidays are upon us once again. Here are a few things to remember when placing your order with us.
As usual, there will be limited or no service provided by the major carriers on Thanksgiving Day, day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve and New Years Day.
The holidays put extra strain on the major shippers like UPS, Fed Ex and the US Postal Service. Keep this in mind when estimating shipment days. Although they are usually very good at keeping their regular time in transit, the heavy volume and poor weather can cause delays. Some carriers often suspend their guaranteed delivery times during this period.
Absolutely Has To Be There By When?
If you want that item that absolutely has to be there by a certain date, add a few extra days (more for international shipments) to regular shipping. Also, please contact us and we can advise you with the latest shipping informaition and delays. Remember that estimated time in transit means working days and does not include weekends or holidays.
