When will I receive my package?

The graphic table below illustrates the estimated number of business days it will take for your order to reach you within the Continental U.S., if shipped by FedEx Ground.

Most FedEx shipments will safely reach their destinations within the number of days shown below, however time of day is not guaranteed.

For the sake of clarity, let us explain the numbers below (the shipping date is not counted in the estimate):

2 Days means an order shipped on Tuesday will most likely arrive on Thursday.

2 Days shipped on Thursday will most likely arrive on Monday.
