BORO Sugar Shack Shipping Policies & Information
SHIPPING DETAILS:
We ship on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays using FedEx . We do not ship Friday-Monday due to our store hours and, most importantly, so we may ensure that your sweets arrive in perfect condition. We don’t want your package sitting on a hot truck or in a carrier’s warehouse over the weekend!
All orders placed by 12:00 pm EST will be processed the same day. Orders placed after 12:00 pm EST, will be processed on the next business day. Please note that orders placed after 12:00 pm EST on Thursdays will not be shipped until the following Tuesday.
All packages ship from the BORO Sugar Shack in Westborough, Massachusetts.
Transit time does not include weekends or holidays and all times are estimates. Holidays, inclement weather, natural disasters, and other unforeseen delays rarely occur but can affect your delivery date.
WARM WEATHER SHIPPING DETAILS:
We want your treats to arrive in perfect condition! When shipping during Summer months (May through September), and to geographical areas with year-round warmer climates, we provide the option to send your shipment with temperature-control packaging at checkout. There is an additional $5 per shipping box for orders that include warm-weather protection. The $5 will cover any and all packing materials, including ice pack(s), insulation packing, special boxes, etc., that we feel are necessary for our items to arrive in a state that meets our standards.
While we take extreme measures to make sure your order will arrive in excellent condition, we cannot guarantee that candy will not melt in transit during warm weather. Additionally, the BORO Sugar Shack cannot be held responsible for shipments that were delivered to the requested location but then sat on a hot porch or in the sun for an extended time. Please make sure that someone is available to receive the package, and we advise you to unpack your order promptly.
In warm weather we will only ship orders that will arrive by Friday of the same week, so it is best to order early in the week on Tuesday. We reserve the right to delay the shipment of your order to accommodate this timeline and customers will be notified by email in such an instance.
