Orders are shipped using standard ground transportation, which typically takes between 7 to 10 business days, excluding the processing time of approximately 1 to 2 business days for items that are in stock. Please be aware that the business days for shipping and processing are Monday through Friday, not including holidays, and at present, express shipping options are not available online.
