There is a wide range of methods of transportation services from surface transportation to overnight air shipments. We commonly use UPS, FedEx, and U.S. Parcel Post, depending on how you wish your order shipped and taking into account how the shipment can be tracked. Savana Engineering does not charge handling fees for smaller items, so you pay only actual shipping costs as charged by the carrier. Due to the variety of product weights and shipping methods, the exact shipping charges are determined at the time of packaging your order. Foreign orders are shipped typically DHL or airfreight. We specialize in international shipping. Please call 1-888-266-3181 for foreign shipping information and assistance.
If needed, you may request an estimate of the shipping costs prior to fulfilling your order. To provide us with your preferred shipping method, or a request for shipping cost estimate, or to advise us of a time constraint, you may use the 'Additional Comments' block found within the Order Form, or you can email, fax, or telephone your request.
Savana attempts to stock all items for immediate shipment. If a portion of your order is temporarily out of stock, it is Savanas' policy to immediately ship as much of your order as soon as possible, backorder the out of stock items and ship the back ordered items as soon as available. However, should you wish to avoid the additional shipping charges involved in subsequent shipment of back ordered items, please indicate on your order that you wish the order to be held and shipped in one shipment.
