Economy Shipping
Free Economy Shipping applies to eligible orders over $75*.
Free Economy Shipping is only available within the contiguous United States.
*Oversized items or exceptionally heavy items may not qualify for free shipping or may require an additional shipping charge for air or priority shipments. Orders containing hazardous materials (e.g. bear repellent spray, lithium batteries, or fuel) also do not qualify for free shipping. You will be contacted prior to shipping these items and will never incur an additional charge without your approval.
Free Economy Shipping may ship using any of the following methods: UPS Ground, UPS SurePost**, USPS Priority Mail or USPS Ground Advantage. Backcountry Gear will choose the service based on order value, weight and package size. If any of these services are not acceptable for your delivery please select another shipping method. Please note that shipping times provided are estimates only and ground shipments may be delayed due to inclement weather or large shipping volumes at carrier hubs.
If some of the items on your order are in stock and others are backordered, we will ship the in-stock items right away with Free Economy Shipping if your order total is over $120. The backordered items will then be shipped separately when they arrive at our warehouse.
US Postal Service Shipping
When you choose the "US Postal Service" shipping option, your order will be sent out with either USPS Priority Mail or USPS Ground Advantage shipping, based on the size, weight, and dollar value of your order.
