- How much does it cost to ship to
Hawaii or location outside of the 48 united states?
The current
version of the web site bases all shipping rates on UPS Ground. Until UPS
decides to offer ground service to Hawaii and Europe here are some sample
shipping costs you would need to pay just for shipping outside of the 48
contiguous U.S.
- Hawaii 42 lbs. (48 cans) is $90.11 via UPS 2nd Day Air
- British Columbia CA 42 lbs. (48 cans) is $58 via UPS Ground
- London England 42 lbs. (48 cans) is $128 via UPS 2nd Day Air
- How do I ship to a P.O. Box?
UPS
Ground does not ship to P.O. Boxes so it is recommended that you seek an
alternative shipping address. If you still wish to ship to a P.O. Box we will
ship your package via United States Postal Service for an additional $8 per box.
Once you place your order you will receive an e-mail asking you to approve these
additional charges. With your approval your order will be shipped.
- How do I ship to APO or FPO
addresses?
Our web site's shipping cost calculator will correctly quote your
shipping costs for military addresses. You will not be asked to pay any additional shipping
charges after order placement. These orders ship using United States Postal Service (USPS) Parcel Post and
no tracking information will be available. Delivery time takes 2 weeks up to 3 months.
