Thank you for your interest in our products!

Free doesn't always mean 'Free' for everybody.
Although you aren't being charged for shipping, we aren't afforded the same deal from mail couriers. In order to offer free shipping to our customers on valid items, we have to make sure we are shipping all items qualified for free shipping via the method that will yield maximum efficacy. In deciding what method to ship your item, we take into account the order's size & weight, value, and shipping location. Thus, we reserve the right to send orders qualified for free shipping via the courier we find to be the most cost effective.
Size & Weight
Virtually any item shipped from our facility under 1lb will be shipped via USPS First Class Mail. Items between 2-10lbs will generally be shipped via USPS Priority Mail. Much larger or heavier items (bike racks, coolers, heavy jackets / coats) are usually shipped UPS Ground.
Shipping Location
We ship out of a town just south of Nashville, TN called Nolensville.
"Does that mean that I have no choice over what method my item is shipped?"
Of course not! You're more than welcome to request the courier we use when shipping an item to you. We understand that if you live in a rural town, you may have a hard time receiving packages from USPS and, in most cases, will gladly ship your package UPS or FedEx at your request. Again, shipping is not free for us, so we may not be able to accommodate every request.
"Okay, I have an idea what method will be used to ship my item. How long will it take to get to my house?"
