UPS Ground from our Semmes, AL warehouse takes 1-5 business days depending on destination zone. Use the ZIP estimator above to see your transit time. 3-Day, 2-Day, and Next Day Air services hit those numbers regardless of where you are in the lower 48.
Qualifying orders placed before our same-day cutoff ship the same business day. Orders placed after the cutoff ship the next business day. Most orders ship same day, and nearly all ship within one business day.
Smaller items ship via UPS Ground (standard parcel service). Powerheads over 150 lbs, 8-cylinder shortblocks, 4-stroke longblocks, and larger gear cases ship via freight line: palletized truck delivery at a flat $210.
