Answer:
All of our regular size ground orders are shipped with a parcel carrier like FedEx, UPS or USPS for domestic and international orders. If you need to receive your order faster than the standard transit time, we offer Next Business Day or Second Business Day delivery for qualifying shipments. For larger, palletized orders we use a nationwide network of freight carriers. Standard common carrier is curbside delivery.
When will I receive my item?
Answer:
Our warehouses strive to have orders processed and ready to ship within 1-2 business days. All our products ship from our warehouse within the U.S. Common carrier deliveries typically range from 2-10 business days for delivery, depending on your proximity to the shipping location.
If your delivery time is over a holiday, please add an additional day for delivery. Our warehouses observe the following holidays: Christmas, New Years, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day and Thanksgiving. Shipping companies may observe additional holidays. All standard ground delivery times and common carrier shipments are estimates and are not guaranteed. If you need your order more quickly, you may select Second Day or Next Day in your shopping cart (availability dependent on your location). These options guarantee that, as long as the items you’re ordering are in stock, the order will be prioritized in our system and arrive by the end of the following business day (Next Day), or the end of the second business day (Second Day). These options are not available for common carrier orders. These orders must be placed before 2:00 p.m. EST to ship the same day and are only available for delivery on business days (Monday through Friday). For orders shipping directly from the manufacturer, shipping cutoff times may vary. Next & Second Day orders received after 2:00 p.m. EST will be processed on the following business day.
