Why are the Shipping Charges so much?
Beginning in 2020, whether the box weighs 1 lb or 9 lbs. the shipping cost is the same. That can be anywhere from $23 – $37 depending on your zip code.
In other words, shipping carriers cannot deliver a box for less than $23 – $37 which is the cost to ship 9 lbs. so the more you order, the less the shipping cost will be per item.
For example, let’s say the cost to ship 1 gallon to your zip code is $27, 2 gallons is $33.50, and 3 gallons is $39.50. Ordering 2 gallons brings the shipping cost down to $16.75 per gallon and down to $13.16 per gallon if you order 3 gallons.
Does 1 Gallon meet the 9 lb minimum?
YES, it does! However, you can add 2 quarts or 1 quart & 2 pints to the order without increasing the shipping cost more than $2.50 – $7.50.
