Shipping Policy: We ship via UPS within the 48 continental states. Our goal is to get your package delivered in the right time at the lowest possible cost to you.
We do use frequently UPS SURE POST (may be delivered by UPS or the US Post Office) for non-perishable orders to hold our shipping charges as low as possible for you. Transit time for these packages can be one day longer than usual UPS delivery times. If you have a drop-dead date for a special party or event, please tell us in the COMMENTS section of the order and we will work with you to achieve your goal date.
No PO Boxes for shipping in the 48 states, please.
ALASKA & HAWAII: All shipping to Alaska and Hawaii for nonperishables is via Priority Mail through the US Post Office. Higher charges will apply and you will be charged according to the USPS stated rates. We will use Flat Rate Priority Mail boxes as much as possible to keep shipping charges to Alaska & Hawaii as low as possible. We normally ship your order within one business day of your order. Shipping of perishables to Alaska & Hawaii is via UPS 2ND DAY AIR.
Orders placed after 2PM EST will be processed the following business day. During the holiday season it can take us several days to ship your order. Please check the banner above the shopping cart for current information on shipping delays.
All orders with perishable foods require a $5 COLD PACK FEE effective August 1, 2022. This is to help cover the rising costs associated with the packing materials and shipping costs that come with larger and heavier boxes. The COLD PACK FEE applies to orders shipped by any shipping method - ground, 2nd Day or Next Day Air. Only one COLD PACK FEE is needed per order.
Perishable foods are shipped on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday only. If you place your order for meat or fish on Wednesday evening, it will not ship until the following Monday. We do not ship perishable items on Thursday or Friday. If you require a Saturday delivery date, please call us at 877-814-3663.
