You might be wondering what the cutoff dates are in order to have your packages delivered in time for Christmas gift giving. Well, the cutoff date depends on the method of shipping you choose, and how far from New Jersey your package needs to travel, since we ship out of New Jersey.
The following information comes from Fulfillrite, the folks who dispatch our orders. These are good guidelines for shipments in the U.S. (excluding Hawaii and Alaska), but please don't hold us responsible for your package not arriving when you hoped it would. We don't have any control over the delivery time after it leaves our hands. Nothing is guaranteed.
Also, please be aware that we do not ship out on Saturdays or Sundays, so orders need to be placed by 12 noon Friday before weekend deadlines. The FedEx options we offer do not deliver on Saturdays. Please plan accordingly. Even though these are dates provided by the carriers, the carriers are notoriously over-capacity during this time, and you should give yourself a few extra days to be safe.
For domestic shipments, the suggested cutoff dates per carrier are:
USPS
December 18: USPS Ground Advantage
December 19: USPS Priority Mail
FedEx
December 13: FedEx SmartPost
December 17: FedEx Ground/FedEx Home Delivery
DHL
December 16: Parcel Ground
For Canadian shipments, please refer to this website for USPS schedules (but keep the Canadian post office strike in mind here), or here for FedEx schedules.
