All products are shipped using UPS. Currently shipping is calculated using a flat rate due to the limitations of the paypal shopping cart. If you would like to pay actual shipping charges please use the special order button and email me your order, your name and address. I will calculate the actual shipping charges and email you the info. Then you may submit payment via paypal using a credit card or checking account. If you would like to pay via money order, please specify this in the email with your order and I will email you our mailing address. Once I receive the money order I will ship your candles.
