HOW WE DELIVER

We routinely ship Domestic (continental US) orders by UPS ground transportation. For this reason, please provide us with a physical address for delivery rather than a Post Office Box.

Some oversize or inordinately heavy items may be shipped Motor Freight. In that case, we will need your exact address to estimate charges. Click here to request information about those items.

Customers who request Postal Priority delivery or who give us only a Postal address to which to deliver will be delivered according to their instructions and are charged according to the policies for postal orders below.

For APO/FPO, Alaska, Hawaii, US Territories, & Post Office Box Addresses


Most orders can leave our warehouse within 1 - 3 business days of receipt of the order.

UPS next day, second day, or three-day select service are also available. See rush shipping information

OVERSIZED ITEMS

An oversized item is one whose weight may be under 30 Lb. but whose physical dimensions and bulky appearance take up extra room in the cargo area of the shipper's transport vehicles. These items are charged for 30 Lb of weight even though they do not weigh 30 Lb.

A double oversized item is one whose weight is over 30 Lbs and under 70 Lb. but whose physical dimensions and bulky appearance take up extra room in the cargo area of the shipper's transport vehicles. These items are charged for 70 Lb of weight even though they do not weigh 70 Lb.

SHIPPING TIME

To Track your UPS Package

Shipping time = order processing time + shipping option you have chosen on your order.

Please allow 1-2 weeks for standard delivery of most items within the continental US. Domestic UPS takes 3-7 business working days for delivery. We can usually ship your order from our warehouse or the warehouse of the manufacturer or supplier within 1-3 working days of receipt of the order.

UPS, US Postal Service, and the shipping departments of our suppliers are not under our employ, and we cannot guarantee exact delivery.

Because the arrival time of your order is often dictated by conditions which are out of our control, we would rather err on the side of caution than promise our customers what others may not be able to do.

We will not normally be alarmed nor trace any usual ground shipments until at least 2 weeks after shipping.

Express UPS shipments are guaranteed by UPS to arrive on schedule UPS Ground and USPS postal priority are not guaranteed by the shipper to arrive at any special time schedule.

• To find out how long UPS Ground Transportation usually takes from KidsToyChest.com  to you, go to UPS Transit Time and type in our Texas zip code: 78613 or look at this map for estimated shipping time to your location.  Add two working days (after the first working day we receive the order) to the transit time. That gives the order time to leave our warehouse.
  
  While this is not a guarantee of delivery on that exact time schedule it is usually fairly realistic.
  
  If timing is critical, please specify Next Day, 2nd day or 3 day Select delivery.
