Holiday Shipping

All of our shipments normally ship ground. UPS and FedEx stop guaranteeing their Ground shipments December 11 - 24. This means that any shipment that normally takes them 2 business days to deliver can take 3 days or longer through no fault of the carrier nor cincy2u.com.

Both UPS and FedEx have extended their delivery times for air shipments by 90 minutes December 18 – 24. The shipment is still guaranteed to be delivered, but not by 3PM. They will not leave a package at a closed business.

Cincy2U.com only ships frozen orders on Monday and Tuesday. We recommend shipping frozen orders by December 14 to ensure delivery before Christmas. We will still ship frozen orders on December 21, but keep in mind there is no guarantee that your order will be delivered by Christmas.

*****************************************************************************************************

All orders are normally processed within 7-10 days.

All orders ship GROUND (1 - 5 days) and will incur an $8.99 handling charge to each shipping address.

Certain states (AK, AZ, CA, CO, FL, HI, ID, KS, ME, MT, ND, NE, NH, NM,  NV, OK, OR, SD, TX,  UT, VT,  WY, & WA) that require AIR for frozen items will incur a $21 shipping fee. Two or more frozen items will incur an additional $19 shipping fee. 

For expedited orders there is a handling fee of $41.00.  Expedited orders normally arrive in 3 to 4 business days. Contact us for details.

Shipments to Alaska or Hawaii will incur a $40.00 non-continental US handling fee.

To minimize the chance of a shipment sitting over the weekend in transit, our normal shipping days for frozen items are Monday through Wednesday. At the current time we cannot ship frozen items to P.O. Boxes, APO/FPO addresses, or to foreign countries, including Mexico and Canada. 

The only product currently shipped to PO Boxes is Cincinnati Recipe Chili Mix. If you have to have your order shipped to a PO Box please send us an email.

It is not required; however we recommend shipping frozen items to a business address when possible. Delivery is guaranteed before closing time of the business day. With a residential delivery, it is by the end of the driver’s day (this could be as late as 8:00 PM in some cases!). Please remember, the delivery commitment does not start when the order is placed. It begins when we hand your package to the carrier.

Frozen items start their shipment solidly frozen. Some thawing is normal and should be expected during shipping. It is safe to refreeze a cold item when you receive your order. Please note that neither the shipping company nor cincy2u.com can accept responsibility for delays due to weather or other reasons that cause the carrier not to honor their delivery guarantee. If you are sending our products as a gift, please inform the recipient to be on the lookout for a package. Unfortunately neither cincy2u.com, nor the carriers can take responsibility for a package that was delivered as requested and left outside.

Incorrect Addresses - Unfortunately neither cincy2u.com, nor the carriers can take responsibility for shipping delays caused by incorrect addresses. Address corrections will be done when possible for a $15 fee. So please be precise and accurate when typing in addresses.
