Most shippers do not guarentee delivery date for ground, 2nd Day, or 3rd Day Air after December 11th, Please allow extra time.

Normally, only Guarentees for Next Day Air remain in effect during the holidays.

(Actually, UPS, FEDEX, & USPS guarentees only mean you get your shipping charge refunded if not delivered in the usual time frame. We guarentee to get your order shipped in the next shipment of receiving your order on items in stock. Then its up to the shipper to deliver your package.)

The size of the shipping carton determines what the shippers charge when shipping by Express options. Generally you are looking at charges between $25 to $145 depending on the size of the shipping carton and how quickly you need it delivered. Shipping early lets you select ground shipping, the best value. We can deliver to your business address by FEDEX Ground. Dimensions aren't a factor in ground shipments unless the shipment is over sized.

We will charge what the shipper charges. If you prefer Priority Mail or Express Mail; we can do it!

The insurance charge for the US Postal Service is extra.
