Delivery Option within The City of Calgary

We offer next day delivery service within The City of Calgary limits, Monday through Friday. Orders received on the weekend will be packaged and delivered on the following Tuesday. Deliveries can only be made to a street address location. If no one answers the doorbell or our phone call, we will leave the package by your front door and it will be considered delivered at this point. Any loss or damage that occurs to the package will be at the purchaser’s risk. We will also send you an email, including a picture, so you know the package has been delivered and where it was left so you can easily find it when you get home.
