Peak-Season Reliability

The holiday season is our busiest time of year, and we take extra steps to ensure your gifts arrive safely and on time. With nearly 30 years of experience shipping across Canada, we prepare early, increase staff, and follow all carrier cut-off dates to help avoid seasonal delays. Orders placed by 12 p.m. EST continue to ship the same business day, and every gift is packed securely to withstand winter travel conditions.
While carriers may experience higher volume or weather-related delays during November and December, we monitor shipments closely and provide tracking updates so you can follow your gift’s journey. We always recommend ordering early for Christmas and other major holidays to ensure the best possible arrival window.

Eco-Friendly Packaging

We’re committed to reducing unnecessary packaging waste. For example, our Tower Gift Baskets arrive without cello-wrap, which helps eliminate single-use plastic while still delivering a beautiful presentation. The boxes in our tower designs are crafted for reuse—ideal for storing keepsakes, organizing craft supplies, or serving as stylish décor long after the treats are enjoyed.

Delivery-FEDEX

A majority of our shipping is done via FEDEX. Deliveries are made between 9 and 6 EST Monday to Friday. FEDEX does not allow time specific deliveries for any shipments (eg. by 12pm). FEDEX does not phone to arrange deliveries for any shipments. Delivery times (eg. 1 day) are estimates and are not guaranteed, unless Overnight or 3 day shipping is chosen. Overnight or 3 day service is not guaranteed between December 19 and January 6. Shipment times reflect business days. Shipping to remote locations in Canada or the USA, may require more time and an increase in shipping costs. We will not be held responsible for delays due to weather or other acts of God.

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) has issued Boodles of Baskets a license to deliver beer, liquor, wine, and champagne. All of drivers are licensed to deliver alcohol. Only persons of legal drinking age can order alcohol from our website and receive delivery of baskets containing alcohol. Alcohol purchased should be for the personal consumption of the gift recipient and not for resale. If a gift recipient looks less than 25 years of age, we will require proof of age. Boodles of Baskets will comply with the rules and regulations as set out by the AGCO relating to this Liquor Delivery Service License. All wine, champagne, beer and liquor baskets sold by Boodles of Baskets includes a $15 delivery charge. So for example, if the total price paid by a customer for a gift basket containing alcohol before tax is $125, the price is $110 + $15 for deliver for a total of $125.00 plus taxes. The AGCO requires us to charge a minimum delivery charge on all liquor orders. We cannot ship Alcohol to the USA.

If a signature is not requested, the courier may leave the package at the door, in the lobby, or in another accessible area if no one is home.

If the courier is unable to deliver, the package will be held at their designated pick-up location for 5 days. If it is not picked up within that timeframe, the gift will be returned to us.

If an address change request is made or needed while the package is on route, a re-direct fee of $17.60 will apply. It is the customer’s responsibility to provide us with a complete and correct address (including buzzer #). Please check your addresses carefully! (Including a daytime phone number where the recipient can be reached is highly recommended.)
