Need Your Order Fast?
Everything Locks now offers an Expedited shipping using USPS Priority Mail Express®, providing the fastest delivery option available for most orders.
How It Works
When you select Expedited Shipping during checkout, your order will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail Express, which typically provides next-business-day delivery to eligible destinations within the United States (Terms Apply).
Important Order Processing Information
While Priority Mail Express offers one-day transit service, please note that order fulfillment and carrier pickup schedules still apply.
Most orders are processed and fulfilled after 5:00 PM Eastern Time.
USPS typically performs our daily mail pickup before 10:00 AM Eastern Time.
Orders placed after our daily USPS pickup may not be handed off to the carrier until the next business day.
Example
Order placed Monday at 1:00 PM
Processed after 5:00 PM Monday
Shipped Tuesday morning
Expected delivery Wednesday
Delivery Estimates
Priority Mail Express delivery estimates begin after the package has been shipped and accepted by USPS, not at the time the order is placed.
Delivery times are estimates provided by USPS and may be affected by:
Weather conditions
Carrier delays
Holidays
Remote delivery locations
Tracking Information
Once your order ships, you will receive a tracking number by email so you can monitor the status of your shipment.
Why Does Expedited Shipping Cost So Much?
"Why in the world does expedited shipping cost so much?"
This is a totally valid and fair question.
The expedited shipping fee is not just paying for USPS Priority Mail Express postage. When an expedited order is placed, our team must prioritize this particular order above all others and move it through the fulfillment process as quickly as possible.
In many cases, that means we have to interrupt our normal workflow, ready the order immediately, process the order ahead of the normal queue, package it, and make sure it's ready for the next available carrier pickup.
The fee helps cover:
Premium USPS Priority Mail Express shipping costs
Priority order handling and processing
Labor required to interrupt normal workflow
The additional resources needed to ensure your order is prepared and shipped as quickly as possible
While we understand that this option is expensive, expedited shipping is designed for situations where receiving your order quickly is more important than the additional cost.
If your order is not time-sensitive, we recommend selecting one of our standard shipping options for the best overall value.
Additionally, please see our FAQs article to understand expedited shipping terms on fulfillment of larger orders.
