Re: Vex Shipping

Generally speaking most delivery services quote times in business days and will only deliver M-F. If you need something to be delivered on a Saturday it's always best practices to double check transit times and call into a vendor to make sure it's going to get to you in the time expected.

Most services from FedEx and UPS require additional fees and a special shipment to be setup in order for a package to be delivered on Saturday. AndyMark (and looks like Ricky says Vex as well) would require you to call in to get this service added to a shipment.

Just to clarify, AM Advantage Shipping does not automatically include Saturday delivery. AM Advantage quotes a 2-business day (M-F) transit time using FedEx services. Depending on your team's proximity to our AndyMark location and whether you're shipping to a residential or business address this may either be a FedEx Ground (business), FedEx Home Delivery (residential), or FedEx Express 2-day.

The delivery time availability varies from FedEx. FedEx Home Delivery offers Saturday delivery at no extra cost and requires no extra special flags on the package. Only a select group of customers who are within a 2 day ground transit area and shipping to a residential address would get their AM Advantage package delivered on a Saturday without any additional calls into AM.
