Shipping Policy

Antique Store Shipping Policy

Thank you for shopping at Saltmeadows Antiques and Crafts. Selling online instead of in person will be a new experience for me, so I appreciate your patience and understanding regarding our shipping policy. 

Please read through our policy carefully: smaller antique items can be shipped, though larger ones may require delivery. Delivery operates on a first-come, first-served basis and is limited by the capacity of our van. Please bear with me as the reduced summer boat schedule from the steamship Authority makes travel to and from Nantucket Island challenging. Additionally, I can do limited deliveries in the Eastern part of the states of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine. Feel free to inquire about this service. 

 

Shipping Options:

  • Available for Small Antique Items: We offer shipping for small antique items that can be safely packaged and shipped via standard carriers.

  • Large Pieces and Sets: Larger antique pieces or sets may not be available for shipping due to their size, weight, or fragility. Please contact us directly to discuss potential alternatives such as local delivery or pickup.

  • Island Drop-Off Service: For customers residing on Nantucket Island, we offer a drop-off service. I make periodic trips to the island for this purpose. Inquire on prices and availability. 

Shipping Costs:

  • Shipping costs vary based on the size, weight, and destination of the item. We strive to provide accurate shipping estimates before finalizing your purchase.

Packaging and Handling:

  • We take great care in packaging your antique items to ensure safe delivery. Fragile items will be securely wrapped and boxed to prevent damage during transit.

Delivery Timeframes:

  • Once your order is processed, we will provide an estimated delivery timeframe based on the shipping method selected and your location.

International Shipping:

  • At this time, we primarily offer shipping within the United States ONLY.
