Whenever possible, we ship orders via Fedex. Our policy is to strive for the best possible combination of price and service for your shipment.
"Next Day Air" shipments will arrive the next business day (excluding weekends and holidays) after departing USGS. "Second Day Air" shipments arrive in two business days after departing USGS. On-time delivery for both methods is guaranteed by Fedex. Shipping delays may occur during busy Holidays or in the spring -- we will do our best to accommodate last minute and expedited orders placed during these times.
Most orders are shipped within 48 hours of order acceptance. Orders must be accepted by 9am (EST) Monday-Friday in order to be eligible for that day's "Next Day Air" or "2-Day Air" shipments. Orders placed on the weekends will not be shipped until Monday, so please take this into consideration when specifying expedited shipping requests.
