FAQ

true
What's the difference between overnight and 2-3 day shipping?
Overnight shipping is designed for shipments that need to arrive the next business day. If your deadline has more flexibility, 2-3 day expedited shipping can provide a balance between speed and cost.
Is 2-3 day shipping the same as express shipping?
“Express” and “accelerated” can be used broadly to describe faster shipping options, but specific delivery commitments depend on the UPS service you choose. Review the available services for your shipment to find the speed that meets your deadline.
Is 2-3 day shipping a flat rate?
Not necessarily, as shipping prices can vary based on your shipment and the service selected. UPS also offers flat rate shipping options for eligible shipments. Compare your available choices to find the right option for your needs.
How much does expedited shipping cost?
Your cost depends on factors such as where you're shipping from and to, your package details and the service you select. Calculate time and cost for your shipment to compare available options before you ship.
What's the cutoff time for UPS accelerated shipping?
Pickup and drop-off times can vary by location and service. Check the available options for your shipment and your local UPS location to make sure your package is handed off in time.
