Shipping & Delivery

SHIPPING

Metal Merch Nation.com accepts orders 24/7/365. The shipping rates for many items we sell are weight-based. The weight of any such item can be found on its detail page. To reflect the policies of the shipping companies we use, all weights will be rounded up to the next full pound.

Orders are processed in the order they are received known as the FIFO method (First In, First Out). Metal Merch Nation reserves the right to ship your order via the carrier or shipping method of our choice. We would change the shipment method if we deem it necessary to fulfill your order in a more efficient and expeditious manner.

Orders placed in normal "non-peak" periods are usually processed and shipped within 2-3 business days from the time the order is placed. The day an order ships does not count as a day in transit. Orders placed from Friday to Sunday during normal "non-peak" periods will be processed the following Monday and shipped within 2-3 days. 

**Due to the high volume of orders during holiday "peak" season you may experience extended processing times up to 4 business days.**
