Q: Why won't my shopping cart let me ship 2nd Day or Overnight?
A: Okay, here's the deal. Some products can't go on planes because they're considered "hazardous materials". What that means is they could spill or leak. As a result, we have to send that stuff to you via Standard Ground or Economy shipping. Items that airlines consider hazardous materials include (but aren't limited to) lava lamps, lubricants, and liquid products. You have a couple of options:
You can…
- Have your entire order arrive via Ground shipping or
- Place two separate orders, one with the hazardous materials arriving via Ground and one with the rest of your order arriving however you want.
Q: Why can't I ship my item(s) to Canada?
A: Shipping to Canada can only be shipped by planes. Some products can't go on planes because they're considered "hazardous materials". Some products also cannot be shipped on planes because they are too oversized.
