When Should I Place My Order?
There are many reasons you could want to have your order arrive on a specific day. You might be moving, trying to schedule a handyman, or just not want to leave your package on the street during your vacation.
Unfortunately, we can't guarantee a specific delivery date for your order. Still, we have some tips that could get you as close as possible.
All orders ship from our warehouse in Virginia Beach, VA, within 48 hours of the time of purchase. Please note that while we ship all items from any one order together, FedEx will often schedule different delivery days for boxes within the same order. You can track all the boxes in your order using the master tracking number provided when your order is shipped.
