We use USPS Priority Mail & UPS Ground for our shipping depending on the size and weight and distance to be mailed. A $2.00 handling fee is added to each shipment unless FREE SHIPPING is noted. We do combine shipping rates for multiple orders to help you save money but if your shipping rate seems unusually high, please email me and I will double-check the rate for the items you are interested in combining. Rates will vary greatly depending on weight & distance to be mailed. We do reserve the right to mail your purchase either USPS Priority or UPS Ground regardless of what is noted in the actual listing. This would only occur in the event that one or the other options is not available that day. We will gladly honor shipping methods per customer request though. Items are mailed M-F only.
