Our shipping prices are very competitive and are based on product weight.  We ship via United States Postal Service. 
 
To calculate the cost of shipping, make a selection from the drop down menu in your cart (Domestic, Canada or International) and hit RECALCULATE. 
 
Most orders are processed and shipped within 7 business days (Monday-Friday), however, many of our products are handmade by work-at-home moms and require additional time. Please see individual listing for manufacturing time.
 
Please see our insurance options here: http://www.babycottagegifts.com/item_593/Shipping-Insurance-Options.htm We are not responsible for lost or damaged products when insurance has not been purchased!
 
DOMESTIC: We will ship your items via USPS with tracking. Orders 13 oz. and under will be shipped First Class. Orders over this weight will be shipped either Parcel Post or Priority. If you need Priority shipping, let us know and we will send you a revised invoice with the shipping difference.

INTERNATIONAL: For our international customers, we also ship with USPS First Class mail when parcels weigh less than 4 lbs. We will fill out the required custom form. Unfortunately, we cannot track your package with First Class shipping. We will do everything in our part to make sure it is packaged and labeled correctly, but we are not responsible for lost packages when they are shipped internationally. If your parcel weighs more than 4 lbs., we are required to ship it Priority and it will come with a tracking number. If your order is under 4 lbs. and you would like tracking, please contact us for Priority shipping rates.

We declare the exact value of the item purchased (not shipping charges, of course) on the custom's label. We will not mark it as a gift and we will not mark it as a lesser value. This is mail fraud and punishable by federal law.
