Shipping Information

  • Book Bouquet gift baskets are shipped via UPS and US Postal Service. You choose the shipping carrier when placing your order.

  • Book Bouquet gifts are wrapped in bubble wrap and shipped in brown shipping boxes.

  • A variety of shipping methods from ground to overnight are available. You choose the method when placing your order. You can compare costs for shipping by using the shipping calculator when placing your order online.

  • Overnight shipping is expensive because you are buying a plane ticket (at the last minute) for your box. With fuel costs rising it is not cheap to fly anymore! Costs also vary widely depending on the size of the shipping box we have to use to ship your gift.

  • Orders received by 3:00pm EST Monday - Friday will ship that day. Orders received after 3:00pm ship the next business day. That means orders received after 3:00pm Friday will ship on Monday.

  • If UPS is closed we are closed.

  • If you need to know exactly how long it will take your gift to arrive please call us. If you are trying to figure it out over the weekend you can go to www.ups.com and click on time in transit to determine the number of days it will take to get to it's destination. Our shipping zip code is 11530 and the city is Garden City.
