We ship out on Monday, Wednesday and Friday by Air Priority USPS. During the hotter months we will ship on MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, and THURSDAY; not Fridays (unless you request it.) We do this to ensure your product stays fresh as long as possible. This service is offered to PO Boxes, APO addresses, into Guam, Virgin Islands Alaska and Hawaii at no additional cost.

The Air Priority USPS is very fast and exposes the Almonds to the minimum of warm conditions during transportation. Usually it is 2-3 Day anywhere in the USA. All postal sorting facilities are air conditioned, and the leg in the airplane is also reasonably cool. The only part of the transport with USPS that is in question is the time that the delivery is in the postal van out to deliver at your destination location. During summer the temps may be higher than is desirable, but this time duration is usually relatively short.

We also offer UPS Ground, which may be less expensive if you are near our ZIP code. However, consider carefully the extra time of delivery and warm summer season conditions of your package before you choose the UPS system. UPS does not deliver to Postal Boxes
