When will I receive my package from US Boatworks?

UPS is committed to providing on-time delivery services with guaranteed schedules for eligible shipments.
However, certain restrictions, exclusions, and conditions apply to this guarantee, which are outlined below.
UPS Guaranteed On-Schedule Delivery
UPS guarantees on-time delivery for shipments using UPS services that are classified as “guaranteed.” If a guaranteed shipment does not arrive on schedule, UPS will refund the transportation charges.
Important Notes:
- Not all UPS services come with a delivery guarantee.
- The guarantee applies only to shipments using services that explicitly offer on-time delivery assurance.

Shipments containing:
- Packages with Additional Handling surcharges
- Large Packages subject to surcharges
Other Exceptions:
- Deliveries to remote locations may take additional time.
- Shipping schedules may change during peak seasons, such as holidays.
- Any unexpected disruptions in distribution and volume may affect scheduled delivery timelines.
For the most current service limitations and exclusions, refer to the UPS Rate and Service Guide.
Service Availability & Delivery Schedules
Delivery schedules may be adjusted periodically based on:
Changes in package distribution
Variations in shipping volume
Seasonal fluctuations, especially during holiday periods
Customers should always verify the latest transit time details before shipping by checking ups.com/ctc.
Additional Considerations for High-Value Shipments
Certain high-value goods and specialized shipments may require additional processing time for customs clearance. This could lead to longer transit times.
If you are shipping commodities that require special handling, consult UPS customer service or review the UPS Rate and Service Guide for detailed guidance.
