Shipping Fulfillment and Updates: Weather, Holidays, and Carrier ImpactsUpdated a day ago
At Small Pet Select, we’re committed to ensuring your orders arrive as smoothly and quickly as possible—even when weather, holidays, or other disruptions impact delivery. Here’s the latest on how these events may affect shipping.
Warehouse Operations
Weekend Closures
Most of our warehouses take a little weekend break, so orders placed during that time start processing on Monday. Our KY warehouse, though, works a half-day schedule on both Saturdays and Sundays, and our WA warehouse runs a half-day on Sundays. This helps a few orders hop into processing a bit earlier and keeps things moving along smoothly.Flexible Fulfillment
Your order may be split and shipped from a different warehouse depending on stock availability. This helps minimize delays and get your pet supplies to you faster.
