About Flat Rate Shipping Fees & Shipping Quotes

Natural branches sometimes run larger and heavier due to frequent changes in harvest areas. In turn, the cost to ship will increase due to the increase in box size and the weight. If the actual FedEx shipping fee exceeds your flat rate shipping fee, we will send you a quote for the shipping fee for your confirmation.

If your shipping quote exceeded your flat rate shipping fee, this is because your natural branches are larger and/or heavier due to frequent changes in harvest areas. In turn, the cost to ship has increased due to the increase in the box size and the weight.
