Ground Order Shipping Timeframes

Most ground orders arrive within 1-5 business days.  The day they ship is considered day 0 and the count begins the following day.  Weekends are not considered days in transit.

For example: If an order is placed at midnight on Thursday and order ships on Friday then a 3-day Ground order should arrive the following Wednesday.  (Monday is "Day 1" not Friday.)

Prevent Order Delays

Please double check the following items in your order to prevent delays:

• Make sure your shipping address is accurate and NOT a PO Box
• Include your correct email and telephone so we can contact you immediately if there is an issue
• Check to confirm that all items are SPT-1 or SPT-2 - that all plugs and cords are compatible. Double check the wiring colors on your light string selections.
• Double-check the wiring color in the name of all products to ensure they are all the same if you'd like all green wire.
