Hi All, another holiday season is upon us!  Here are our rather conservative order deadline recommendations for delivery by December 24th.

Canada - Place orders before....
  • December 11th, 7 a.m. eastern time for:  West coast, east coast, remote areas (i.e. the furthest places from Toronto).  Ground shipping takes approximately 6-8 business days to these locations, but with several weekends in between and holiday shipping volume, we recommend getting your order in as soon as possible.
  • December 13th, 7 a.m. eastern time for:  Prairies (major metropolitan areas).  Ground shipping usually takes 3-5 business days to these locations, but with several weekends in between and holiday shipping volume, we recommend getting your order in by this time.
  • December 18th, 7 a.m. eastern time for:  Toronto/Ottawa/Quebec metropolitan areas.  Ground shipping usually takes 1-2 business days to these locations, but with Christmas just after a weekend and holiday shipping volume, we recommend getting your order in by this time.
  • Note about Canadian Territories (Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Yukon):  We rarely ship to these locations and do not have a recommended cutoff, but we imagine it takes much longer than usual.  Please contact us for estimated shipping times.
Please note that these are rough guidelines and certainly not guarantees, since we cannot control delays due to weather, postal errors, etc.  You are always welcome to contact us with your postal code if you have any questions, and we will be happy to check estimated shipping times to your exact location.

U.S.A. - Place orders before....
  • December 10th, 7 a.m. eastern time for:  Western/Southern USA, Alaska/Hawaii.  Ground shipping takes approximately 6-10 business days to these locations, but with several weekends in between and holiday shipping volume, we recommend getting your order in as soon as possible.
  • December 16th, 7 a.m. eastern time for:  Northeastern USA.  Shipping usually takes 3-5 business days to these locations, but with Christmas just after a weekend and holiday shipping volume, we recommend getting your order in by this time.
  • December 16th, 7 a.m. eastern time for:  Small items shipped by 1st Class Mail.  Continental USA; these are orders with shipping charges of $6.99-$8.99 CAD.  Shipping usually takes 3-5 business days to these locations, but with Christmas just after a weekend and holiday shipping volume, we recommend getting your order in by this time.
  • Note about U.S. Territories, U.S. Armed Forces, etc.:  We rarely ship to these locations and do not have a recommended cutoff, but we imagine it takes much longer than usual.  Please contact us for estimated shipping times.
Please note that these are rough guidelines and certainly not guarantees, since we cannot control delays due to weather, postal errors, etc.  Shipping to the USA is quite complicated, and a variety of factors affect shipping time and method of service (such as package weight, dimensions, destination, etc.).   You are always welcome to contact us with your zip code and items you would like to order if you have any questions, and we will be happy to check estimated shipping times to your exact location.
