An important note about shipping and glass coverage: In order to keep shipping fees to a minimum, we use US Mail Flat rate boxes with most orders. They are normally the cheapest way to ship. However, occasionally, some glass does break, since there is minimal room for padding with these boxes. This broken glass is still usable (unless it is crushed). If you wish to keep shipping fees to a minimum and don’t mind occasional minor breakage, this is a great shipping method. This shipping method we refer to as “Economy” in your shopping cart. The shopping cart will use this as the default shipping method. All "Economy" packages are covered if they are lost. However, in order to keep glass prices as low as possible, we will no longer be covering glass that is broken in these flat rate boxes, unless it is crushed beyond use. In order to cover your glass for breakage, we would need to ship in larger boxes with much more padding. This will cost you more to ship. If you wish us to ship your glass in larger boxes, and cover you for possible breakage, please choose that option when you check out in the shopping cart. This option to cover breakage is called “Priority” in the shopping cart. Economy and Priority take equal lengths of shipping time to reach you. |

Here is a general calculation for "Economy" shipping our glass and other supplies. Shipping rates may vary depending on the items purchased. If you have any questions, be sure to contact us. Domestic Shipping Fees & Quantity Discounts (within the USA) For the best per pound rate to ship glass is in 18 lb. increments. Each 18 lbs will come in a flat rate box and will be insured. All packages will be shipped via US mail, and will be insured. We may use a third party insurer, such as Stamps.com. So your shipping label may not reflect that the parcel is insured. But we do insure them. Glass will be covered in accordance with the explanation above. To find your shipping rate, please put your zip code in the shopping cart and click the "calculate" button. Sometimes we can ship for less than what the shopping cart calculates. If that is the case, we will refund you the overages. We do charge a dollar or two per package to cover our packing material. Larger packages, we may charge a bit more. Insurance is also added to the shipping fees depending on the amount of your order. International Shipping Fees & Quantity Discounts For All Countries Outside the USA, Except Canada. (For Canada see below.)Customs taxes may be charged for orders as they arrive in your country. We do not include these fees, and we have no way of knowing what they will be or if there are any. Please check with your local post office to find out if your country charges these fees. The best amount to ship internationally for the best per pound (lb) rate is in 18 lb. (8.2kg) increments. Each 18 lbs will come in a flat rate box and will be insured. 1 - 2.5 lbs (454g to 1.14kg) is $28. Packages less than 1lb, will cost less and we will refund you the difference.
