:: When will my order ship?
About 90% of orders ship the same day (Monday - Friday) that we receive them. Most back/orders ship within 1 or 2 days. If you are in a rush for something we don't have in stock, we may be able to have it drop-shipped from one of our distributors or the manufacturer. If the distributor or manufacturer can't fill a back/order in a reasonable amount of time, we will let you know. Call us if shipping time is critical. Our UPS driver picks up about 4:00pm Pacific time. Omnirax workstations are made to order, so allow up to 6 weeks for shipment.

:: Will you charge my credit card before the shipping day?
The simple answer is no. However, we do pre-charge on Omnirax desks, and on particularly expensive products that we have to special order.

:: Which shippers do you use?
We prefer UPS, but we use USPS for PO Box addresses, APO/FPO addresses, Puerto Rico, USVI, and Guam addresses. Alaska and Hawaii residents may choose either UPS or USPS. We can also ship by FedEx if we can use your company's shipper number. International customers generally choose USPS over UPS because USPS Express service generally costs about half that of UPS Express. However, UPS Express has a way of clearing customs quickly, and hence, arriving much sooner than USPS Express.

:: When will my order arrive? I live in the USA.
UPS 1-Day is guaranteed to arrive at most destinations by 10:30am of the next business day. If you need a UPS delivery on a Saturday, there is a fee of $12.50 added to 1-Day service. UPS 1-Day Saver is available to most destinations and arrives by the end of the day. UPS 2-Day and UPS 3-Day arrive by the end of their respective days. UPS guarantees these delivery standards. An exception might be certain remote locations in Alaska and Hawaii. UPS 3-Day and UPS Ground are not available to Alaska or Hawaii.
USPS shipments are sent at the Priority Rate, which generally means delivery in 2 to 3 days. Priority shipments to most of Northern California, and a few surprise major cities, might actually arrive in one day.
Now, on to the UPS Ground delivery expectations in your state:
