SHIPPING IN FLAT RATE BOXES

The United States Postal Service now offers two Flat Rate Priority shipping boxes. These boxes can and cost $8.95. If you are only ordering heavy little cubes, these boxes can save you heaps on shipping expense and get them to you within 3 days! We can ship between 5 and 20 cubes in these boxes to save you money. The boxes are different shapes: 12" x 3 1/2" x 14" and 11" x 8.5"x 5 1/2". If you are ordering more than 12 cubes, there is very little room for much else to fit in these boxes other than a few small items. The savings is notable over parcel post rates: >> 8 cubes / 5.75lbs / $2.35savings, >>12 cubes / 8.65lbs / $6.05savings, >>16 cubes / 11.52lbs / $8.35 savings. Glass pieces also are significant in weight. We use these boxes, whenever possible, to reduce shipping amounts. Since our shopping cart tables are built on the weight of your order, we are unable to offer the Flat Rate box as a check out feature, since we don't know if your entire order will fit in a flat rate box. our next option would be to fit as much of your order into a flat rate box as we can and place the balance in a smaller package or even use multiple flat rate boxes for large cube orders (if that can reduce postage expense) and lastly we'd use a large box to contain the entire order. Which ever way we package your order, ! Any postage savings from utilizing the flat rate boxes will be manually reduced from your order total before processing your credit card and noted of on your receipt.
