Shipping & Packaging:

We ship in insulated boxes with frozen gel ice. The gel ice is food safe, and the packs can be reused again and again. We ship either overnight or 2-day depending on your location, your preferred delivery date, and the time of year.

For perishable items, you'll choose your delivery date at checkout. To keep things relaxing, we recommend that you ship the oysters to arrive the day before you need them. All perishable orders ship with FedEx. FedEx's expected delivery time is usually between 4:30pm and 8:00pm but that can vary greatly depending on your location.

FYI: We only ship to locations within the US, and unfortunately we can't ship to Hawaii. We ship to physical locations only (no PO boxes).

Current perishable shipping prices: 

Washington and Oregon - $10 
Idaho and California - $40
Other states - $50 

Non-perishable items will ship "Slow and Inexpensive" USPS for $8 for all orders. 

Placing an order:

Order cutoff for same-day shipping is 8am Pacific time.

Giving a gift?

You can specify when you want the product delivered and whether you’d like to include a gift message during checkout. Please make sure the recipient will be home to receive the package.... surprise seafood packages are great, but you also want to make sure someone is there to put the food in the fridge.

Important Advice!

If you’re shipping to an apartment, please make sure that FedEx has permission to leave items at the door. Usually FedEx delivers in the morning, so if you're shipping to a business, make sure it's open! If they're unable to deliver (either to a closed business or a locked apartment building), you might have to pick the package up at a FedEx warehouse.

Major Caveat:

Please remember that we do our best to satisfy every order that comes in, but due to the nature of our business, product is occasionally temporarily unavailable. If that is the case, we will notify you right away and let you know the earliest shipping date.
