Policies & Shipping
Shipping Policies
Most orders are shipped from our warehouse in Maryland. We warehouse over 95% of the items that we offer, which is a key to our quick order turn-around. Some orders are drop shipped directly from our manufacturer's in various states within the continental US.
FREE SHIPPING OVER $49.00
Orders totaling $49.00 or more are eligible for Free Shipping.
Offer excludes all pond liners and items with an oversize symbol .
**All Live Plant & Snail orders incur a flat $12.99 express shipping charge
This offer is only valid in the 48 contiguous states.
Expedited Shipping
All orders requesting expedited shipping (Overnight, 2nd Day, or 3 Day), must be received by 1:00pm Eastern time for us to ship out the day of order. Orders requesting expedited shipping received after 1:00pm will be processed the next business day. Orders placed on Saturday and Sunday or Holidays will be processed on the next business day.
Free Shipping
Applies to continental US delivery addresses only and is via ground by the carrier of our choice. Free shipping is defined as included shipping.
To determine shipping/handling costs please follow this link
Note: All steps are completed without entering any credit card information.
Click the 'Add to Cart' button next to the item of interest. Your shopping cart will appear with your item(s).
Items too large for UPS ground delivery will show delivery charges under UPS Freight. Freight deliveries requiring a telephone call by the carrier to setup delivery, should choose residential address in the dropdown menu. Customers are responsible for the removal of freight deliveries from the back of the common carrier.
Orders to Hawaii and Alaska are only shipped via Second Day Air. If the item is listed as 'Free Shipping' and your delivery address is in Hawaii or Alaska shipping costs will appear in your shopping cart. Items listed as 'Free Shipping' do not ship to Hawaii or Alaska for free. At this time we are unable to ship to FPO, APO, Canada, Guam, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, etc.
We ship via UPS which will not deliver to a PO Box. We therefore need a physical 'ship to' address to process your order.
Address Corrections
Please double check your shipping address before completing your order. If any aspect of the shipping address needs to be changed after the order leaves our warehouse, UPS Ground and UPS Express charge a minimum fee plus all additional shipping charges. UPS Freight, used to move large items, charges a minimum fee plus all additional freight charges. These fees will be the sole responsibility of the customer.
