SHIPPING
We ship Monday through Friday using UPS but our frozen shipments can’t be in transit over the weekend so we are not able to deliver your package on a Sunday, Monday or a UPS holiday. We cannot ship outside of the United States.
HOW DO WE DO IT?
We pack our frozen products in a cooler within a shipping box with enough dry ice to keep the contents frozen well into the evening of the delivery date. It is best to open the package immediately upon arrival and to put ice cream in the freezer. Use gloves when handling dry ice. Fun Fact: the temperature inside that box is about negative 110 degrees F which is colder than your freezer by 100 degrees.
NO SIGNATURE REQUIRED
UPS is authorized to leave all packages at the destination without signature which will insure that your product will not melt due to multiple delivery attempts.
TRACKING
When the shipping label is created you will receive an email with your tracking number.
