PLEASE NOTE: Items weighing less than 10 lbs., but measuring

more than 84 inches in length and girth combined take 10-lb. rate.

Merchandise shipped direct to your home from the factory: If the merchandise

you order will be shipped direct to your home from the factory, there will be a

statement to this effect in the item description. (Otherwise, all merchandise is

shipped from Atlanta.) Items that are shipped from the factory direct to your

home may be ordered with other goods; however, they will be shipped sepa–

rately with individual shipping charges. Parcel Post charges are included in the

price of mailable factory-shipped merchandise. Not-mailable factory-shipped

merchandise will be shipped by the best method, considering factors of economy,

speed, and service. You can estimate shipping charges by using

the~ chart

on this

page. Actual charges will vary, depending upon how merchandise is shipped.

2 ways to ship not-mailable orders

If

your order cannot be mailed, it will be sent to you by TRUCK

or REA-Express. We will ship by whichever method provides the

fastest delivery consistent with economical shipping costs. We

will decide which method is better, unless you specify your own

preference on the order blank.

If

your shipment arrives by REA–

Express instead of TRUCK, it will be because the cost is actually

lower by this method.

Not-mailable cash orders are shipped "Collect." (The shipping

charges are collected upon delivery.) Do not send payment for

shipping charges with your order. Charges are based on weight,

distance, and classification of merchandise. There is a minimum

charge for each shipment, which will be the actual charge on most

shipments.

In

most instances you may ship up to about 125 lbs. at

the minimum charge. You can build up your order to this weight

without paying additional transportation charges.

REA-Express is recommended for shipping certain merchandise

which cannot be sent via Parcel Post due to postal restrictions on

size, weight, or type of merchandise. Shipments are handled by

one company from origin to destination. Charges are determined

by the weight of the shipment and the distance to your home.

If you wish to estimate shipping charges

The chart below shows the shipping charge per pound according

to the distance between your home and Atlanta. Since these

charges are for

all kinds of merchandise,

it will be necessary for

you to determine only the total weight of your order and the

approximate distance of your home from Atlanta.

Example:

Suppose you order some fully assembled furniture; it

weighs about 125 lbs. and you live about 575 miles from Atlanta.

The rate table shows that the approximate charge per pound is

41'. To determine the shipping charge, multiply $.04 by 125. The

charge would be about $5.00.

Direct-to-home freight delivery. Not all trucking companies make

deliveries to a home address.

If

you specify TRUCK, and do not

have a street address, be sure to give your highway route number

and some identifying landmark-so the truck driver can find your

home. Post office, rural route, and box number locations alone

are not enough. Where direct-to-home delivery is not available,

and you wish your order delivered to your home, there is an addi–

tional charge. The total charge for a not-mailable shipment will

never be Jess than $3.68.
