2025 Holiday Shipping Deadlines

Plan ahead to receive inventory ahead of peak weekends and Christmas Eve.

Heads up: Deadlines assume worst-case (East Coast) UPS Ground transit from our Rancho Cordova, CA warehouse. If you’re closer to California, you may have extra buffer. See the UPS transit map below.

Expedited UPS services (e.g., 2nd Day Air, Next Day Air) are available by request only and are not selectable at checkout. If you need a faster service, please contact us for a quote and confirmation.

  • Request a quote: customerservice@spswholesale.com or 1-916-851-1005.
  • Quotes include carrier options, estimated transit, and costs (dimensional weight may apply).
  • Same-day ship eligibility depends on quote approval, payment, inventory readiness, and our daily cutoff.
  • Carrier delivery dates are estimates and may be affected by peak volume or weather.

Tip: Reach out early—by late morning Pacific Time—for the best chance of same-day processing on approved expedited shipments.
