Schedule may change due to holidays or unforeseen circumstances, but we offer weekly delivery on an established day to all our customers, and further extend our range with the use of couriers we have approved for animal delivery.

This zone map provides general rate information, but delivery outside of our established routes or courier deliveries may require additional charges. Please contact our office for exact rates.

Our drivers cannot wait more than a short time before they will be instructed to continue on to their next stop and cancel your delivery.
