Freight Saver or Free Shipping
We'd be happy if we could ship all orders over $50 with Free Shipping. However, many of our products are heavy or bulky. Carriers charge by weight, volume and distance. To maintain low prices and still credit some or all shipping charges, we divide the US into 3 zones.

We automatically allow FREE SHIPPING on the first 10 pounds in the East, 6.25 pounds Central and 5 pounds West for the first $50. We charge a flat rate of 80¢ per lb with no base shipping charge as a flat rate for additional pounds and pro-rate the rebate as your order increases.
You can Mix and Match various products in your cart and lighter higher value items offset others to save you on shipping. Certain heavier products, such as nails and fertilizer, are specially marked and do not earn any shipping allowance. At checkout, we calculate every US address, both residential and commercial, and offer the current published UPS/FedEx Ground Rate, without adder, in addition to Freight Saver. Freight Saver is only available to street addresses in the 48 Contiguous States. A $2 Delivery Area Surcharge is added once per order to some rural zip codes, about 1% of the US Population.

Freight Saver will appear as an option in your shopping cart on orders of $50 or more whenever it is lower than the actual zoned Ground UPS/Fedex Rate. We scan all rates including Commercial Rates if you ship to a recognized non-home-based business address. DO NOT select Freight Saver if your order is time sensitive as it may delay your order by a few days. Orders are staged so that overnight and second day orders ship ahead of Ground and Priority Mail Orders. The slowest methods to select are Basic Economy and Freight Saver, which ship last. Freight Saver orders are packed on a time and space available basis without overtime at the lowest cost service by our choice of carrier(s). Freight Saver is available for orders placed online only. Customer Service cannot make it available on phone orders under $100. Certain products are Not qualified for a Freight Saver Allowance. You may save, depending on the weight and your shipping zone, by checking out Non Freight Saver items separately on larger orders.
