Shipping & Handling Charges
SHIPPING METHODS: UPS, UPS SurePost, US POST OFFICE
After we weigh each cone of yarn for a "net weight" (the yarn less the cardboard cone) and choose the appropriate size box for the shipment, we weigh the entire order for a "gross weight." Then we try to choose the most economical method to send your package. (95% of our shipments go UPS ground)
- UPS: Packages over 10 pounds will ship UPS Ground.
- UPS SurePost: Packages up to 10 pounds that fit into the appropriate size box will ship via UPS SurePost which UPS delivers to the nearest Post Office where the local carrier will deliver the package. This method may take an extra day for the package to arrive but usually costs $1-$3 less than regular UPS Ground.
- US Postal Service: smaller packages (less than 5 pounds) will sometimes be less expensive to send via the US Post Office Priority Mail.
There is a "Handling Fee" added to each order per "gross" weight:
- Up to 50 lbs. = $5.00
- 51 to 100 lbs. = $8.00
- 101 lbs. to 150 lbs. = $12.00
- Each additional 50 lbs. = $2.00
If you need a shipping estimate BEFORE ordering, please call the Store during regular hours or send us an email and we'll give you an "approximate" shipping amount.
