Shipping Policy | Plum Creek Wagyu Beef

SHIPPING POLICY

Here at Plum Creek Wagyu Beef, we guarantee 100% satisfaction on each and every order. In order to ensure that your Fullblood Wagyu Beef order reaches the intended recipient in a timely manner with all product(s) in excellent condition, we have outlined the following guidelines.

PACKAGING

Each individually vacuum sealed, frozen product is carefully packed within a reusable, insulated cooler with dry ice and/or gel packs to make certain the product remains cold throughout the shipping process. For added protection, the cooler is then placed in a corrugated shipping box to minimize any unforeseen effects of the shipping process on your order. It is normal for the dry ice to sublimate and the gel packs and Fullblood Wagyu products to melt and partially thaw (but remain cold) depending on the time in transit, however the insulation will ensure that the product(s) remain cool to the touch.

SHIPPING WAGYU AS A GIFT
