Orders placed before 10 am are shipped on the same day depending on the weather conditions. Holidays may delay shipping. See below for details.
During cooler weather (Below 70º):
We pack and ship orders Monday through Friday. Orders placed after 10 am EST on Friday will ship the following Monday.
Orders under 1 lbs. are sent with USPS First Class. (1 to 4 Days)
Orders over 1 lbs. are sent with USPS Priority Mail. (1 to 3 Days)
During warm weather (Above 70º):
We pack and ship orders ONLY Monday through Wednesday. This is to prevent your chocolate from melting in transit over the weekend. Orders placed after 10 am EST on Wednesday will ship the following Monday.
All orders are sent with UPS Ground or USPS Priority Mail. (1 to 3 Days)
If your selected shipping service (especially UPS Ground) says 4 days or longer, please select another service. The ice packs only last about two days so the risk of damage is very high. We really cannot risk a 4 day trip.
WARM WEATHER SHIPPING INFO
It's no small feat, but over the years and hundreds of orders, we've got it down. The following are a few measures we take:
When it's warm out (over 75º) we only ship Monday through Wednesday to avoid your chocolate being delayed in transit over the weekend. All orders are upgraded to Priority Mail or UPS Ground, whichever delivers the quickest. Your chocolate is chilled for a few hours before final packing. Ice packs are included as needed. Chocolate and ice are wrapped with thermal bubble wrap. All seams are taped shut to create an airtight seal.
Please make sure someone is home to receive your chocolate so it doesn't sit on your porch in the sun all day.
We cannot guarantee that the chocolate will not melt.
If the temperature is expected to be over 100 degrees, please consider ordering at a later date. Even with all of our best efforts, very hot days are a real challenge.
TRACKING
There are two ways to track your order.
After checkout, add your order to the Shop app (formerly known as Arrive app) with the link in your order confirmation.
USPS tracking numbers are sent to your email once your package is shipped. You will also receive a delivery confirmation email on the day of delivery.
RETURNS
We cannot accept returns or exchanges for food items per FDA guidelines. Please contact us if there was a problem and we will work with you to make it right. sales@maverickchocolate.com.
