$100 Minimum Order per product line. A product line is any of the four canneries, Rainy Day, Richmoor, Alpine Aire or Mountain House, or the Super Spectrim vitamin company. You are not required to order from all lines, but if you order from any line, there must be $100 in products from that line. See FAQ for more information.
$100 Minimum Order Totals. You must have a minimum order total of $100.
Be careful with companies that charge you $5 shipping, but in turn, are charging you QUADRIPLE (or more) what the food products normal costs are. An example of this we recently found, is 50 lbs bag of Hard
Red Wheat selling for $32.49 (our price is $8.87, 4 times cheaper) or Bakers Flour selling for $30.58 (our price is only $10.62) or Quick Rolled Oats $35.58 (our price $18.71). Are you really
saving any money by paying 3 or even 4 times the higher price? Probably not. Check out our price comparisms! More question on shipping answered here in our FAQ!

Freight Shipments for large orders (exceeding at least 1000 lbs. minimum) - call for a current quote. Freight quotes will be given and are good for about one week at a time now (the freight companies are constantly changing their shipping rates).
C) Food Buckets: UPS has raised their "non-standard" special handling fee to $6 per item (anything not boxed up). We can lower this cost by boxing up the buckets and bags (see boxing bulk items below for bags) in a cardboard box for $2 per bucket, saving you $4 per bucket on the UPS handling fee.
Empty buckets can be shipped 8 per "stack" (we tape them together) for the $6 handling fee at the new UPS demanded 45 lb rate.
D) Boxing Bulk Items - UPS is now also charging the special handling fee for bags, which we avoid by boxing up bags (up to 50 lbs per box) in a cardboard box. Each box required is $1. We can put two 25 lbs bags per box, or one 50 lbs bag per box. Items such as water drums cannot be boxed up are are subject to the $6 UPS handling fee.
E) $3 Handling Charge - Charged for all orders.
F) Shipping Times - Please read the current shipping times page. We keep this page current (popup window, popups MUST be enabled).
