Holiday Season
CuraScript SD understands the holiday season — though exciting — can be a stressful time in both business and personal settings. To help encourage a smooth transition into one of the busiest times of the year, we would like to offer some helpful information regarding shipping practices. Our insight has been included below to guide you in ensuring the timely and safe delivery of your products.
What to Consider
Every company has their unique policies and guidelines for shipping practices, so it is important to find out as much information as possible before placing orders around the holidays. Most websites have shipping policies and special holiday shipping schedules posted. If you are ordering around the holidays, you may want to communicate with a CuraScript SD Account Manager to confirm any possible holiday delays.
In the month of December, most shipping companies cannot guarantee typical shipping times without extra fees. Due to demand and high volume, shipping delays are almost certain on some items. Items that are guaranteed to arrive should be reviewed to ensure they can be delivered without incidence.
CuraScript SD Shipping
We know that receiving medications you need for patients is important and that delays on packages could have terrible repercussions. During the holiday season, all refrigerated items will still arrive next-business day regardless of shipping volume. With this in mind, all orders should be placed after taking the delivery date into consideration. For example, if a package is ordered on Wednesday and there is a holiday on Thursday, those packages will not arrive until Friday (the following business day). Office closures, early departures, long weekends etc. should be reviewed before placing an order.
Non-refrigerated/non-critical items will ship via standard shipping and should be ordered in advance in order to prevent delays. Please note that delivery schedules can vary based on what day of the week a holiday may fall.
Working Together
CuraScript SD will work closely with all practices who may need strategic planning for deliveries. Please contact us before placing your order so we can help guide you through the best course of action for your needs. We work to eliminate waste and provide efficient and effective solutions for shipping.
