School Supply Store, LLC is proud to offer the following Shipping Policy. School Supply Store ships all orders from various distribution centers within the United States. If you are placing an order for shipment outside of the United States please review our International Ordering page prior to placing your order. Standard Shipping (UPS, FedEx, USPS) Standard shipping charges are 15% of the total merchandise cost for orders delivered to addresses within the contiguous U.S., with a minimum charge of $7.19. (For Alaska and Hawaii, shipping charges are 20% of the total merchandise cost, with a $8.85 minimum. If an order shipping to Alaska or Hawaii contains a truck item, we will e-mail you with a separate quote.)
Standard shipping takes 4-7 business days for all in stock merchandise to all states within the contiguous U.S. (Orders to Alaska, Hawaii, P.O. boxes, and APO/FPO addresses will arrive within 2-4 weeks. For military shipments, please note that arrival times indicate the time it will take for your order to reach the centralized APO/FPO address; final delivery is subject to the terms and conditions of APO/FPO services and may take longer.) 2nd Day Air (UPS, FedEx) Because of our large inventory and unlimited combinations of products it is not possible for us to accurately calculate shipping charges at the time you place your order for this special service. We will attempt to give you an idea of what your charges may be at the time of checkout but your actual charges may be adjusted based on actual charges from the carrier. We do not profit in any way from shipping charges and we pass along the actual charges to you. The difference in your order total will need to be approved by you before your order is released. Orders arrive in 2-3 business days. 2nd Day Air is not available for P.O. Boxes and APO/FPO addresses.
Next Day Air (UPS, FedEx) Because of our large inventory and unlimited combinations of products it is not possible for us to accurately calculate shipping charges at the time you place your order for this special service. We will attempt to give you an idea of what your charges may be at the time of checkout but your actual charges may be adjusted based on actual charges from the carrier. We do not profit in any way from shipping charges and we pass along the actual charges to you. The difference in your order total will need to be approved by you before your order is released. Early AM overnight shipments are guaranteed to be delivered by 11:00am but will cost more than a Standard Overnight Shipment. Orders arrive in 1-2 business days. Next Day Air is not available for Alaska, Hawaii, P.O. Boxes, and APO/FPO addresses.
Priority Mail (USPS) Priority Mail charges are 25% of the total merchandise cost for all orders, with a $14.95 minimum in the contiguous U.S. and $16.95 minimum in Alaska and Hawaii. Priority Mail is offered for orders shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, and P.O. Boxes and APO/FPO addresses within the contiguous U.S. Your order will arrive in 3-5 business days. (For military shipments, please note that arrival times indicate the time it will take for your order to reach the centralized APO/FPO address. Final delivery is subject to the terms and conditions of APO/FPO services and may take longer.)
If express shipping is not available on one or more items in your order, the entire order will arrive by Standard Shipping. For account customers, we will pre-pay and add shipping charges to your invoice.
Furniture and Over-sized Items It is very difficult for SSS to accurately charge shipping for items that will not ship via a common carrier such as FedEx or UPS because of the many variables. We will do our best to provide you with an instant on-line quote of your shipping charges but in some instances we will need to make changes after you have placed your order. We will contact you FIRST if and changes to your shipping charges need to be made. At that time you can proceed or cancel your order. Shipping time will also vary based on the item ordered and the carrier selected. If you require inside delivery, lift gate service or any other specialized service additional charges will apply.
