Walgreens Free Shipping June 2021

Q: What is standard shipping?
Hide Answer
A: Standard shipping takes 1 to 2 business days after processing on most orders inside the 48 contiguous states. Shipping to some more remote areas of the 48 contiguous states, and to areas outside of the 48 contiguous states, may take additional time.
Orders are handled by a variety of carriers. We select the carrier offering the best service at that time for that destination. Product shipping times may vary based on fulfillment center.
Actual shipping time may differ from the 1 to 2 day standard shipping estimate if an item isn't in stock at the time of order. There may be occasional discrepancies between the inventory levels shown on Walgreens.com, and what is actually held in inventory. A delay may also be experienced if the order includes a shipping-restricted item, or if it's shipping to a PO Box.
Items that ship directly from vendors arrive 3 to 7 business days after processing.
Q: What is expedited shipping?
Hide Answer
A: Orders placed by the 3 p.m. ET are shipped overnight and normally arrive to customers in 1 business day. Orders received after 3 p.m. will be processed the next business day and shipped overnight. Certain items ship directly from vendors and will arrive 1-2 business days after processing. Orders cannot be shipped via Expedited outside the 48 contiguous states. They also cannot be shipped to P.O. Boxes, APO, FPO and DPO addresses.
Q: What is overnight shipping?
Hide Answer
A: Overnight shipping is guaranteed to take 1 business day.
Orders are handled by a variety of carriers. We select the carrier offering the best service at that time for that destination. Product shipping times may vary based on fulfillment center.
An order must be placed by 3 p.m. EST for guaranteed 1-day shipping. Orders placed after 3 p.m. EST are processed the following business day instead.
Orders shipping to PO Boxes, APO, FPO, DPO addresses, or outside the 48 contiguous states, are ineligible for overnight shipping.
Q: What is Shipping-Restricted?
Hide Answer
A: The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) prohibits certain items from shipping via air, and the United States Postal Service (USPS) further prohibits certain quantities of these items from shipping via USPS ground services. These items are denoted as "Shipping-Restricted," and are classified as ORM-D (Other Regulated Materials for Domestic Transport Only) or Lithium Ion or Lithium Metal Batteries. Shipping-Restricted items include:
Aerosol-type products in pressurized spray cans, such as hairspray, shaving cream, and spray sunscreen.
Products that contain flammable, volatile or corrosive chemicals, such as: fragrances, nail polish and nail polish remover.
Products that are, contain, or are packed with Lithium Metal or Lithium Ion batteries, such as rechargeable appliances or devices.
We're committed to getting your order to you and your return from you as quickly as possible, but we also want to do it safely and responsibly, in compliance with DOT and USPS rules. That's why we require ground-only delivery, at our Standard Shipping rate, for orders that contain Shipping-Restricted products.
We're unable to ship shipping-restricted items to Hawaii, Alaska, US territories, PO Boxes, and APO, FPO and, DPO military addresses.
Q: What is a flat shipping fee?
Hide Answer
A: A flat shipping fee is a shipping charge that applies only to certain products, and it applies regardless of additional shipping costs. Flat shipping fees are charged in addition to standard shipping fees when these products are shipped to the 48 contiguous states.
If a flat shipping fee applies, you'll find it listed on a product's details page (for example, Flat shipping fee: $45). Shipping for other products in the same order will be calculated according to standard rates.
Q: Can I specify different shipping options in the same order?
Hide Answer
A: Yes, you can. Orders containing prescriptions, contact lenses, and/or retail products will ship separately. If you want your order to ship via expedited or overnight service, you will be charged the retail product, contact lens, and prescription shipping rates separately. Processing and shipping times for each will vary. However, some products are not eligible for expedited shiping options.
Q: What are the general expected dates for deliveries within the contiguous U.S.?
Hide Answer
A: Your expected delivery date is an estimate based on processing time, your shipping destination, and the time you are placing your order. It is not guaranteed, and the actual delivery date may be different.

Q: What is the difference between processing time and delivery time?
