Shipping Rates
Currently the shipping rate is $18.95 flat rate for most states. The really HOT states will have to have their product sent using UPS 2nd Day Air. West Coast states will be sent using UPS 3 Day Select. The normative form of shipment will be UPS Ground when your state is cool enough for shipping in this manner.
We try to ship your toffee within 2 or 3 business days after you place your order. During the warm season, we won't ship anything that will sit over the weekend. We normally use UPS - we can obtain for you a tracking number upon request. Northeast orders will arrive 2 business days after we ship it - which will be Monday through Wednesday in the warm months. Midwest is about 3 or 4 business days after we ship (Monday and Tuesday is when we'll ship it - orders placed Tuesday through Sunday will ship the following Monday), and West Coast orders are up to 5 business days (These are the only ones that will fall over a weekend). If you want it sooner, we can ship it 2nd Day or Overnight, but it will add significant costs.
Here is a map showing the number of days it will take for your package to arrive after we ship it; this may not be the same day you order it.
Our Alaskan and Hawaiian friends will pay a flat rate of $65US, and we will ship it UPS Ground.
At this time, we cannot offer International shipping. Because there is so much more time and money put into shipping across borders, and since we are responsible for anything that goes awry (and it's rarely us - I say in all humility), we have lost more money than we've made on International orders. We try to be as kind and forgiving as possible, but at the end of the day, we're in business to feed our family, so we need to make a profit (even though we're told incessantly that profits are evil in our new, Hopeful Socialist Republic).
Please keep in mind that this is a perishable item. It doesn't spoil, but the flavor will certainly diminish over time if it is not handled properly. Please wrap tightly in a couple zipper top bags and refrigerate or freeze the product to maintain freshness. Freezing will not harm the toffee, but it may cause the chocolate to "bloom". This will not affect the flavor, only the appearance. Make sure you wrap it tightly to keep any odors from reaching your precious cargo.
We do as much as economically possible to keep the toffee cool, however, we will not refund your money if it melts after sitting on the porch all day. Swim at your own risk! Call us if you think it'd be okie dokie to send to you.
We are a small, family-owned company and are not able to absorb the costs associated with cancelled orders after they have been shipped. You can always review the actual shipping costs prior to submitting your order.
