We have minimum order requirements based on your location to help ensure your food ships safely and stays at a proper temperature during transit.
Order minimums by shipping zone:
- Light blue states: $50 minimum
- Dark blue states: $90 minimum
- Alaska & Hawaii: $250 minimum
Why do we have order minimums?
Shipping perishable food requires:
- Insulated packaging
- Ice packs and/or dry ice
- Enough product mass to maintain a safe temperature during transit
Smaller orders often do not hold temperature as well, which is why minimums vary by region. Shipping prices have also drastically increased over the years, and shipping small amounts of items at once is often not financially feasible.
Simple takeaway:
Your minimum order is based on where you live and the shipping method required to get your food to you safely and the most cost effectively.
