Shipping & Returns

When will my order ship?

All orders placed by 1:00pm PST (Monday – Friday) will ship same day. Orders placed Saturday and Sunday will ship the following Monday. In summer months we may upgrade to minimize heat exposure.

When will my order arrive?

Consider the shipping rate you selected, and keep in mind that Fed Ex and UPS do not consider Saturday and Sunday as transit days.

A business/transit day does not include the day the order was placed.

For example, an order placed 5pm Monday with 2-day air express will ship on Tuesday, for scheduled delivery Thursday.

Can you guarantee arrival date?

At this time, most carriers are not guaranteeing delivery dates, though we have not found this to be an issue.

Do you ship internationally?

We do not at this time.

Can I send to a PO Box?

We do not recommend sending to a PO box as it is slightly less reliable and can be very expensive. If you would like to send to a PO Box, please reach out to our team at info@danthesausageman.com

Can I send to a Military Box?

We do not recommend sending to a Military box as it is slightly less reliable and can be very expensive. If you would like to send to a Military Box, please reach out to our team at info@danthesausageman.com

Yes, but Hawaii and Alaska must be sent 2-Day Air Express.
