We have a number of customers in Alaska and Hawaii, and it's a fact that high shipping costs are a big factor for these folks when making an online purchasing decision. For that reason, we're very pleased that we can offer free shipping to these states on our Bio-Clean and MegaMicrobes powder products purchased in the two pound size in quantities of 1-6 units. We're able to do this thanks to the US Postal Service, which provides standardized pricing on its Priority Post packaging to all 50 states, US territories like Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, and APO destinations. This method includes a tracking number and has generally proven to be very reliable and fairly quick - about a week to deliver. A two or three-pack of powder is a great way to save on the product price and take advantage of free shipping to all U.S. states and territories.
For bulk quantities and liquids outside the contiguous US, and international sales on all goods, we do need to factor in additional delivery charges, but we strive to get the best available options by working with Fedex, UPS, USPS and other shippers. Rather than adding a "set" shipping cost to these destinations, we can often obtain very favorable rates based on volume and using specific days of the week for sending product.
