Because we are a very small business handling a large volume of sales, please expect shipment within 3-4 weeks of placing the order.  We hope to surprise you with an earlier delivery.  Credit cards are charged upon purchase.   The shipping rate is 15% of your total order for the contiguous United States.  The shipping rate for orders from Alaska, Hawaii, and Canada is 25% of your total order.  For these previously mentioned locations, orders that exceed $1000 receive free shipping.  For all other locations, please contact us with your desired order at wasecabiomes@gmail.com or 866-546-8833 for a shipping quote. Thank you.
