You will receive an email or phone call if questions come up about your order. This can cause delays in processing. You have 48 hours to respond before an order is canceled.
How long will shipping take?
Standard delivery times are 1- 7 business days, depending on the shipping method and the final destination. Oversized items and large TVs take 5-14 business days. Expected delivery times are quoted from the time the order is placed, not when the order is shipped. We typically allow 48 hours for processing. The delivery quote is base on estimation and not guarantee. Estimated arrival dates falling on a holiday roll forward to the next business day.
What's a business day?
A business day is a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday not including major holidays that fall on those weekdays.
Calculating shipping transit times or making an estimation regarding the arrival of your order, remember to only count Business Days. For example, if a package is shipped via 2-Day Air from Vanns.com™ and the carrier picks it up on a Thursday, the first Business Day in transit would fall on Friday and the second Business Day would fall on Monday. If you have any questions about our Estimated Arrival dates, Business Days, or any other shipping related questions, please contact Vanns.com™ toll-free at 1-800-769-5668.

Our normal Common Carrier Freight delivery is a "curbside" service. It means that the item is simply dropped off at your home and will require your signature.
FOR TELEVISIONS ONLY:We can offer upgrades to Common Carrier Freight, including delivery into your home, unpacking, and carton removal. There is an additional charge for these services, so please call toll free at 1-800-769-5668, and we can supply custom pricing to you for these additional charges.
