General Shipping Policies:

We use FedEx or UPS for all of our deliveries requiring shipping. Local deliveries are typically handled by Courier.

Free Ground Shipping is included with any purchase for which Ground shipping is offered as a delivery option. This applies to about 95% of the products available on our web site. Items which only offer expedited shipping (3 Day, 2 Day, or Overnight), do not include free Ground shipping. These items include some of our Wine Gift Baskets and  Fruit Gift Baskets.

IMPORTANT DELIVERY NOTES:

  • FedEx and UPS do not deliver to P.O. boxes, APO boxes or FPO boxes, and our web site will not accept these addresses as a valid shipping address. However, we can arrange to ship to these addresses via USPS on orders placed by phone.
  • FedEx and UPS Ground transit times are not guaranteed (unlike upgraded shipping deliveries). If your gift is time sensitive, we strongly recommend upgrading your shipping to ensure that your gift arrives by your expected delivery date.
  • FedEx and UPS drivers, at their sole discretion, may decide to leave a package at a recipient's doorstep if the recipient is not home. This is entirely up to each individual driver (as they are responsible for the package) and can not be "overridden" as a shipping option. While most drivers typically elect to leave packages, they can not be instructed to do so by anyone other than the recipient (some recipient's will have such instructions on file).
     

Areas of Service:

We ship most of our products from Houston, Texas and our gift baskets are available for shipment anywhere in the continental U.S. (Alaska, and Hawaii by phone order only).

Delivery Options:

Shipping rates vary by gift basket due to size and weight. You will be given the choice and cost of all available shipping methods during check out. Your options may include:

  • Local Courier Delivery - Typically delivered next Bus. day (call for same day)
  • Ground - Typically delivered in 3 - 6 Bus. Days following shipping date
  • 3 Day Express - Delivered in 3 Bus. Days or less following shipping date
  • 2 Day Air - Delivered in 2 Bus. Days or less following shipping date
  • Next Day Air - Delivered next Business Day following shipping date

Residential vs. Commercial Deliveries:

  • For Residential GROUND deliveries, Business Days are defined as Tuesday through Saturday and do not include Sunday, Monday, or most public Holidays.
  • For Commercial GROUND deliveries, Business Days are defined as Monday through Friday and do not include Saturday, Sunday, or most public Holidays.
  • For both Residential and Commercial 3 Day, 2 Day, or Next Day Air deliveries, Business Days are defined as Monday through Friday and do not include Saturday, Sunday, or most public Holidays.

To arrange Next Day Air, Saturday deliveries, please call us. Our web site does not offer this service as FedEx does not offer this service to many locations.

You are responsible for providing an accurate and complete shipping address including:

  • Recipient Name(s)

  • Street Number and Street Name
  • Floor, Suite, or Apartment Number (if applicable)
