Shipping & Returns
Shipping Terms
Bandages Plus ships Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.
All shipping timeframes referenced exclude the initial day of shipment, weekends and holidays.
Orders may not be shipped immediately, but rather will be shipped so that they are received within the stated delivery time frame as specified by the selected shipping method (see below). You should select the appropriate shipping method so that your order is received within the time frame in which it is needed. If you need your order by a particular time or date and are unsure as to when it will arrive, please contact us for clarification.
While we manage shipments to be received within the stated delivery time frames, we do not guarantee delivery within the stated time frames, with the exception of the Federal Express / UPS express shipping methods as follows:
- Standard overnight (Next Business Day)
- 2 Day (Second Business Day)
- Express Saver (Third Business Day)
Due to shipping cut-off deadlines, orders requiring the above express shipping methods must be received prior to 1 pm Eastern Standard Time in order to be shipped that day. We do not guarantee that any express shipping requests received after the 1 pm Eastern Standard Time deadline will be shipped on the same business day.
For orders to be shipped via an express method which are placed on non-business days, please take into consideration that the order will not ship until the next working business day.
Bandages Plus may elect to ship certain products directly from the manufacturer to ensure timely receipt of ordered products. Therefore, customers may expect to receive their order in separate packages.
Available Shipping Methods
United States Postal Service - Priority and 1st Class Mail
- U.S. Postal Mail Service is generally the least reliable shipping method in regards to delivery time frames. While oftentimes it provides quick and timely service of approximately 2 - 6 days, we cannot guarantee this timeframe and this service should only be selected if receipt of your order by a specific date is not required.
- Both U.S. Postal Priority and 1st Class Mail generally take the same amount of time for delivery.
