How
to save on Shipping Costs!
With
the rising costs of fuel costs and shipping costs, we work to offer the lowest
possible shipping charges.
Suggestions to keep your shipping costs down:
-
Whenever
possible, consider purchasing baskets with drop handles or tray style
baskets with side handles. These
baskets nest inside each other much better than over the top handle baskets
and are much more economical.
-
Shipping
is based on the size of the box, so regardless of how much the baskets cost,
the shipping charges are the same based on the box size.
As a result, shipping charges may seem high on less expensive baskets
because the total value of the baskets in the box is lower.
-
Each
case of baskets has an actual weight and a dimensional weight. When
the total of your order’s actual or dimensional weight, whichever is
higher exceeds 200 pounds, there is an additional savings.
Consolidating orders will be less expensive to ship than 2 smaller
orders, so place larger orders less frequently to save on shipping.
-
You may
want to think about shipping by freight truck.
These orders need to be pallet orders of between 500-1000 dimensional
pounds for the best rates.
Frequently Asked Shipping Questions:

are your shipping charges?
We do not offer flat fee shipping.

delivery location. All our product

The website can’t calculate volume discounts, so shipping may be less
on larger orders. If the charges are
less than estimated due to volume we will adjust your order total accordingly.
