Will my package make it for the holidays?

The silly season is upon us, and we’ve got your shipping covered! Plan early and know your cutoff date, so whether you’re shipping hand-painted dreidels for Hanukkah (Dec 18 - Dec 26), car antlers for Christmas (Dec 25), or homemade gifts for Kwanzaa (Dec 26-Jan 1), your goodies will get there on time. 
 

To get your packages delivered before Dec 25th, make sure you book them for pickup on or before the cutoff date.
