Shipping Policy

New Low $6.95 Shipping on any size order including multiple smartPaks!

Too Good to Be True Flat Rate Shipping™:

Our shipping rates are "Too Good to Be True". Order an unlimited number of items, including multiple SmartPaks, for just $6.95 in shipping. And we don’t ever add surcharges for heavy items!

It's simple and it's fair. Order a little or order a lot. We won't penalize you for placing that really big order.

As long as all of your horses' SmartPaks ship to the same address on the same day, you'll never pay more than $6.95 for shipping. And you can throw in a few saddles, bridles or bags of dog food too!

Rates this good only apply within the continental United States on ground shipments.

Barn Buddies Shipping:

Have a single horse shipping to a barn full of your SmartPak Buddies? Call us and we will set him up with other Barn Buddies in the same barn. We'll charge just $3.95 a shipment to ship his SmartPak and whatever added items you want to ship to the barn on that same day as the other horses.

Do you own/board more than one horse at that barn? The $6.95 flat rate cap still applies. Get 20 or more horses in your Barn Buddy and the shipping is FREE!

Rates this good only apply within the continental United States on ground shipments.

Expedited Shipping:

Expedited shipping is available for all in stock items. Expedited shipping may be available for items that are on backorder when they are received by us. For more information on this, please call us. Your expedited order may be shipped by UPS. Prices are figured using the current UPS rate based on the weight of the order. Orders placed by 2 pm EST Monday - Friday will be shipped out the same day, pending credit card authorization. Any order placed after 2 pm EST Monday - Friday will be shipped the next business day. Orders placed over a weekend will be shipped the following business day. Delivery times do not include weekend days or holidays. Saturday deliveries are available in some areas for an increased shipping charge with Next Day Air shipping only. If interested in a Saturday delivery, please contact us at 1-800-461-8898. All other expedited shipping methods can be selected on our website.

For all expedited deliveries UPS is responsible for delivering the package on time. Certain circumstances can arise where UPS is unable to deliver expedites on time due to weather, remoteness of location, etc. All efforts will be made by SmartPak to ensure that packages arrive on time as ordered, but we cannot guarantee that UPS will always act accordingly. In particular, orders indicated for Saturday delivery cannot be guaranteed.

We strongly recommend that if the order is for a particular health emergency, customers should seek immediate assistance from their vet. If a UPS expedited delivery fails to arrive on time as ordered, SmartPak will refund the additional shipping charges incurred.

Order Delivery

All new orders placed during the week are shipped within one business day (no orders are shipped on Saturday or Sunday so any orders placed after 2 pm EST on Friday will go out on Monday). Your shipping time will depend on what state you live in and what shipping method has been selected. To determine the number of business days it takes to ship to your state, please refer to the shipping schedule below. All ground orders are shipped via UPS. Expedites will be shipped with either UPS. We are unable to ship to P.O. Boxes at this time. For information on how to track an existing order, refer to the "Reviewing and Tracking Your Orders" section of the FAQ's.

Shipping Schedule:

We produce and ship your first order of custom SmartPaks within one business day of receiving your completed order. Your second delivery of SmartPaks arrives exactly 21 days after your first order to establish a one week overlap, ensuring that you won't run out of supplements. After your second delivery, your order arrives every 28 days. Each order of SmartPaks that you receive contains 28 days of supplements; 28 individual SmartPaks.

SmartPak Order Billing and Shipment Schedule

We produce and ship your first order of custom SmartPaks within one business day of receiving your completed order. Your second delivery of SmartPaks arrives exactly 21 days after your first order to establish a one week overlap, ensuring that you won't run out of supplements. After your second delivery, your order arrives every 28 days. Each order of SmartPaks that you receive contains 28 days of supplements; 28 individual SmartPaks.

Our goal is to make sure you never worry about running out of supplements. One way we do that is by shipping your second order out 21 days after your first order to create the one week overlap. The second way we ensure you never run out is to produce your subsequent orders up to one week before they ship. Because each set of SmartPaks is a custom order, we process the credit card before we create the SmartPaks. So your card is charged 7 days before the second order ships, and so forth. Likewise, between the first time your card is charged and the second, there is usually only about 14 days, and from then on out it is a 28 day cycle.

Sales Tax: Massachusetts residents will pay applicable sales tax for all purchases.
