VAPE MAIL SHIPPING RATE INCREASE Effective 3/27/2021: All packages will be Adult Signature Required parcels (21+) and MUST be signed for. Drop-off not available! |
PACT ACT Vape Mail Announcement USPS, FedEx, and UPS no longer accepts the shipment of electric cigarettes and vape-related products. Moving forward, all orders will be shipped out with Local Regionals Carriers and X Delivery. If you are located in the Western half of the continental U.S., estimated shipping time frame is 1 to 3 business days. For the rest of the country, it can take up to 5 business days longer than the usual delivery times. When it is shipped by local carriers, the delivery is a 2-Step Shipping process. First, it goes on commercial LTL Truck across the country to a regional carrier near you. Then, the regional carrier will make final deliveries. In some cases, tracking will be available only after your package is scanned at the carrier's destination hub so we appreciate your patience. Coverage will be limited in the initial rollout and we may not be able to serve our entire customer base due to logistical constraint or lack of regional carrier service. However, as the carriers' coverage expands, we will make sure shipping services are made available as soon as possible. Shipping options, costs, and coverage area will be made available during the checkout process.
We’ll continue to provide tracking for your packages so you know when to expect your mail. |
