Shipping Policy

GENERAL SHIPPING
We provide the following delivery options in the U.S.A.:
5 – 8 Business Days: Shipped via UPS Ground.
3 – 4 Business Days: Shipped via UPS 2 Day or USPS Priority Mail. If shipping to military locations (APO or FPO addresses), Puerto Rico, or US Territories, then the 3 – 4 Business Days option will be via USPS Priority Mail and in certain cases may take up to 4 weeks for delivery. This is ONLY option available for orders shipping to Canada.
Please note, USPS cannot provide specific tracking information (such as with UPS or FedEx). Should any issues arise with your shipment, you will need to contact the U.S. Postal Service. Although we will do our best to provide shipping information, we cannot take responsibility, issue credits, or provide refunds for damaged or lost products during transport when shipping via USPS Priority Mail.
2 Business Days: Shipped via UPS Overnight.
Customer Pick-Up: If you live in Southwestern Idaho or will be in the neighborhood, please feel free to visit us, pick up your order, munch on some free samples, and skip the shipping costs! Before stopping by, please wait until we contact you that your order is ready for pick up.
NOTE: You will need to present valid photo identification (matching the name listed under the "Billing" section of your order confirmation receipt) when you pick up your order. If you plan to have someone else pick up your order, that person will need a copy of your photo ID (a clear image of your ID sent via a smartphone is sufficient).
Please keep in mind the following: *No matter which shipping method is selected, we require up to 2 business days to process your order (if you select UPS Overnight, you may not receive your product the day after you place the order). An order must be received by 12:00 p.m. (PST) for the day the order was placed to qualify as a "business day". On the rare occasion in-house processing will take longer than 2 business days, we will contact you.
*UPS does not deliver on Sunday and will only deliver on Saturday for an additional fee. If you require a Saturday delivery, please call us.
*Our factory in Boise, ID sends shipments daily Monday through Friday (United States holidays excepted).
*Placing an order does not guarantee shipment. We reserve the right to cancel or modify orders depending on availability. Because we keep a limited inventory, so as to keep our inventory as fresh as possible, we may at times not have certain items in stock.
SHIPPING COST:
Shipping charges are calculated using UPS, and USPS shipping tables and are based on package weight and size, delivery distance and shipping method. Shipping costs approximately double for every upgrade (e.g., UPS Overnight will cost roughly twice that of UPS 2 Day). Unfortunately, weight plays a significant factor in determining shipping costs and bulk candy has a high shipping-to-product-cost ratio. For example:
If you purchase a diamond for $1,000, shipping is likely going to be approximately $20, (2% of the diamond price). On the other hand, if you purchase $1,000 worth of candy, your shipping cost will likely be $200 (20% of the cost of the candy). Products such as jewelry, CDs, electronics, clothing, and flowers are light; therefore, their shipping costs will not represent a large percentage of their total order cost. Sweets, for better or for worse, outweigh the competition
ADDRESS CORRECTIONS AND DELIVERY INTERCEPTS:
The UPS charge for an address correction is $12.00 per package. If you enter your address incorrectly when placing an order and UPS bills us for address correction costs, we will in turn charge your credit card for all associated UPS fees. If you change your mind about an order after it has already shipped from our warehouse and you would like to re-route the package(s) back to Idaho Candy, the UPS charge for a delivery intercept is $12.00 per package. We will automatically bill all associated UPS fees to your credit card.
SERVICE AREAS – DOMESTIC & INTERNATIONAL:
United States & Canada. Please note our website only accepts online orders placed within the U.S. or Canada (e.g., you are traveling in London and want to place an online order to be shipped to your home in New York, our system will not accept this order).
However, we do service countries outside the U.S. and Canada. If you would like to place an order and you are not located in the U.S. or Canada please call Customer Care at (208) 342-5505 and speak to a customer care representative who can help you with our international processing.
TIMELY DELIVERY:
We cannot issue credits or refunds for orders not delivered on specific dates unless (1) you notified us that you needed the order by a certain date AND (2) the order is shipped via UPS Overnight or UPS 2 Day. Because delivery times for orders shipped by ground delivery methods vary from state to state, no guarantees regarding delivery dates can be made. If you absolutely need your products on a certain day, please let us know and we will do our best to advise you regarding the most appropriate delivery option.
Idaho Candy Company is not responsible and cannot provide refunds for delays outside our control including inclement weather, natural disasters, accidents or third party carrier delays.
WARM WEATHER/SUMMER SHIPPING (NO REFUNDS FOR MELTED PRODUCTS):
Chocolate may melt during warmer months. While we pack orders with insulation and cold packs, shipping conditions and transit temperatures are outside our control.
During warm weather (typically April–October or when temperatures exceed 72°F), we strongly recommend selecting 2-Day or Overnight shipping to help ensure your order arrives in good condition. Orders shipped via slower methods may be at greater risk of melting.
Please note: Idaho Candy Company does not offer refunds or replacements for melted products, regardless of shipping method selected.
To help prevent melting, we recommend shipping to a business address or a location where someone can receive the package promptly. Once delivered, please bring the package indoors as soon as possible.
In periods of extreme heat, we may delay shipment or contact you to adjust the shipping method to better protect your order.
