Warm Weather Shipping – Fast Ship & Cool Ship

Shipping heat sensitive products, isn't easy. You've probably seen some e-tailers eliminate these products from their online stores during the summer months or add unreasonably high surcharges to orders containing heat sensitive products.

At World Pantry we've spent the last 24 years perfecting the shipment of heat sensitive products. We've tested a myriad of insulators, cold packs and shipping speeds to guarantee you receive your products in the condition you'd expect from your favorite brand. We even store all heat sensitive products in 24/7 temperature-controlled rooms at all of our fulfillment centers.

Our algorithm-driven packaging and delivery Shipping Selector analyzes the current temperature in your geographic region and pairs that with your distance from one of our temperature controlled warehouses to recommend the best combination of Fast Ship & Cool Ship options. Our logistics team then uses that data driven directive to pick, pack and ship your favorite products. And that's the driver behind our No Melt Guarantee!

Fast Ship & Cool Ship Details

April 1 - on or about mid October: During this time period, all orders containing heat sensitive items, such as chocolate, and with transit route or destination temperatures over 74 degrees F will go through our Warm Weather Shipping protocol to ensure safe delivery. All Cake orders will incur a $2.99 Dry Ice fee to ensure secure and optimal delivery.

• To minimize time in the heat, these orders will be expedited and will ship via our proprietary express delivery network where most orders will be in transit for only 1 to 2 days.
• Each order will be evaluated as to the proper combination of insulation or cold packs, if any, that are necessary for "No Melt" delivery.
• Depending on your location and travel time, we may only ship these orders on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday so your order will not be in transit or held at a shipping hub over the weekend. This ensures you receive the freshest product possible.
• Due to significant cost of shipping chocolate orders during this time period, a $2.99 "warm weather shipping surcharge" will be added to ALL orders with chocolate or other heat sensitive items that are shipping to destinations with temperatures above 74 degrees F. This surcharge is in addition to the Standard Delivery charges and any Alaska and Hawaii surcharges (see table above). Please understand that this surcharge is only a portion of the increment cost of getting orders to you safely.
• These orders are always covered by our No Melt Guarantee.
