Shipping Schedule

Domestic orders (within the U.S.) being shipped by Air that are received by 10am EST of any business day (Monday thru Friday) will be shipped that day. Orders received after that time are shipped the following business day. All items are shipped from our facility in Pawtucket, RI 02861 (unless noted otherwise).

Canadian Shipments

Shipments to addresses within Canada can be made through UPS or US Postal Service.

International Shipments

All orders shipped outside of the US & Canada must meet our international order minimum of $100.00 (not including shipping costs and additional fees). US Territories such as Puerto Rico and US Virgin Islands are not considered international.

International shipments are sent via UPS or US Postal Service. Certain items cannot be shipped internationally. These items are marked as such. International freight must be prepaid and charge back. We do not accept international credit cards for payment. See our Payment Information page for available payment methods.

Shipments outside of the United States may be subject to additional taxes and import duties upon arrival in the destination country. As each country has different rules regarding import taxes and duties, we are unable to estimate these fees. These additional charges are the sole responsibility of the recipient. Please contact your local customs office for further information.

APO and FPO Shipments

All deliveries to APO and FPO (US Military) addresses must be shipped via US Postal Service. When entering such shipping addresses, select United States as the country and enter one of the following as the state: AA (Central and South America), AP (Pacific), AE (Europe, Canada, and Middle East).

US Postal Flat Rate & Regional Shipping

Our website uses a comprehensive packing algorithm that will determine the size of the box required to ship your order. If the products in your order, along with the required padding materials, fit in a US Postal Flate Rate or Regional box, you will be quoted the cost of that box, plus required insurance costs. Some hazardous, fragile, or oversized products cannot be shipped in Flat Rate or Regional boxes.

P.O. Boxes

P.O. Box shipments can be sent via US Postal Service or UPS SurePost. Standard UPS shipments (Ground, 3 Day and Air) cannot be delivered to P.O. Boxes because they are owned by the US Postal Service.
