Indian Foods Company uses both UPS and USPS to deliver all packages inside the continental U.S, Hawaii, Alaska and all US territories. The day we ship your order from our store is not counted by UPS or USPS. No deliveries are either picked or shipped from our facility to you on weekends (Saturday and Sunday) and holidays.
It is the customer’s responsibility to provide the correct shipping address, phone number and email address. Incorrect information may delay the shipment or may not be deliverable by UPS or USPS. Please verify that you have entered the correct shipping information, including suite and apartment numbers, or you may be charged a penalty imposed by UPS.
Once your order and address is entered the system will calculate your shipping charges based on the information you have entered- (weight and address). You will have a chance to confirm or cancel your order later.
