When shopping for gifts:

• Make sure the fragile item is cushioned well before gift-wrapping.
• Avoid giving perfume or cologne; it may be considered flammable and hazardous material and require extra handling fees.
• Don’t ship liquor and wine. It cannot be legally shipped portal to portal, only from a licensed liquor distributor.
• Avoid giving chocolates; they may melt in transit.
• Ship perishables, such as baked goods, meat or fruit, on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday during the holiday season.
• If you’re on a tight budget, select non-fragile, lighter weight gifts. It can help save on shipping costs.
• Ship holiday packages early, at least 2 weeks ahead if possible. At Christmas time, carriers typically encounter such a large volume of packages that they lift delivery guarantees for a short time.
