Shipping Policies:

Prior to placing your order, please review our Shipping Policies for a more positive purchasing experience.

How are orders shipped?

Our FREE shipping orders are sent via FedEx Express or FedEx Ground to arrive within 2 days within the continental US. For order to Alaska or Hawaii, a $20 Shipping and Handling fee will be added to your order. For free shipping, we only ship Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday to ensure your product arrives prior to the weekend. (Packages sometimes delayed due to unforeseen circumstances – i.e. weather delays, etc.).

What do you need to do?

• You must provide a complete physical address. We are unable to ship to PO Boxes.
• Prior to submitting your order, review all order and shipping information carefully prior to order completion. Schiltz Foods is not responsible for damage or thawed product due to incorrect or incomplete shipping addresses. Customers will be responsible for charges of new order if one is placed.
• Check your delivery date carefully. Orders will be shipped based on the delivery date that is selected during checkout, or will be shipped on the closest next delivery date. If you have questions regarding when your package will be delivered, please contact us at 877-872-4458 or email us.
• FedEx typically makes deliveries between 8:00 AM-8:00 PM (we can’t control the time). Although we don’t require a signature on shipments, we have found that FedEx does not leave packages at apartment buildings, condos, etc. in certain cities if there is not a door person. If this pertains to you, please watch your tracking and ensure someone is there to receive the delivery.

This schedule allows all packages to be delivered by Friday. Saturday* or Monday delivery is not available.

*Saturday delivery can be requested by calling 877-872-4458 (additional shipping will be at customer's expense).

Schiltz Foods reserves the right to delay or expedite shipments due to inclement weather. With volatile weather and shipping frozen product, we prefer to delay shipment versus having products delayed in transit and potentially spoiled.

- Tuesday deliveries are only possible if you pay an extra overnight charge.
- Saturday deliveries are only possible if you pay an extra overnight charge and are only available in some areas.

Advance Orders Schedule
Delivery dates may be selected from the drop-down menu provided in the checkout process. If a date is not in the drop-down menu, you can fill in the required date, keeping in mind our above shipping policies. All orders must be shipped within 30 days of order date.

Order Changes or Cancellations
You may change or cancel an order with advance notice. We will do all that we can to honor your request, but if the order has already begun the shipping process, we cannot change it or cancel it. Order changes or cancellations need to take place prior to 5:00 PM CST the day before it is scheduled to ship.

Orders placed during the holiday season (November 1-January 1) may be changed or canceled up to 12:00 PM CST on the day prior to shipping. Cancellations received after this time cannot be accommodated and the order will ship as scheduled.

Frozen Products:
Our frozen goose products are individually vacuum sealed and placed in a corrugated box lined with foam for extra protection - a package combination that will ensure your products arrive cold and in excellent condition.

Our products are delivered without a signature requirement to prevent the package from going back to the delivery terminal and spoiling.

Other Information:

• There is a $50 minimum product order (does not include gift certificates).
• We offer FREE Shipping for 2-day orders. If you require Overnight or Saturday delivery, you'll incur additional charges.
• 30 lb. Rendered Fat container does not qualify for free shipping, unless we can ship it Ground to arrive in 3 days or less.
• Note: Fed-Ex and UPS do not work certain holidays, so products will not ship on those days.

Goose Eggs for Crafting Delivery Schedule:
All goose eggshell orders have FREE FedEx Ground shipping. You can choose a faster delivery method at checkout if desired. Goose eggshell order processing time is 3-4 business days, however, may vary due to availability. Delivery of egg orders may take 2-4 weeks, depending on availability and seasonality.

• Business days are Monday - Friday.
• Weekends and holidays are not considered business days.

• Whole raw geese may have some slight surface thaw.
• Smaller goose products will thaw more quickly but are packaged to arrive to you cold, no matter what delivery method you choose.
• Depending on where you live, products may still be partially frozen. When they arrive, you can either place them in the freezer for later use or you can finish thawing them for use within the next few days.
