UPS Shipping Charges
We prefer to ship via UPS because of its tracking features and because it has the best success rate of safely delivering parcels. Shipping charges are computed by type of service, weight, value and distance, and are automatically determined when you add products to the shopping cart. Transit times for UPS standard Ground service are shown in the map below. Transit days do not include Saturdays, Sundays or UPS holidays. Transit time begins when your tracking information shows that the parcel has arrived at the main shipping terminal in Warwick, RI. UPS deliveries are not made on Saturday or Sunday. Rural or remote destinations require additional transit time. You will receive an email from UPS when your order has been shipped. Included with the email will be a link to the UPS website for status.

UPS Residential Delivery Charges
UPS charges an additional fee per package over their commercial rate for deliveries classified as residential.

UPS Extended (Rural) Delivery Charges
In addition to the Residential Delivery Charge, UPS charges a fee per package for deliveries classified as extended (rural). This classification is determined by your ZIP code. A PDF list of the affected zip codes can be viewed and downloaded at the UPS website. This practice is the same for all small package common carriers, though the charges may vary slightly.

UPS Declared Value Charges
For packages with a declared value over $100.00 there is an additional charge per $100.00 in value, with a minimum charge. There is no additional charge for packages with a declared value up to $100.00.
