* A note on calculators based on weights: For these shipping calculators to work correctly, you must have a weight associated with each product in your cart. If we can obtain accurate weights from our manufacturers, we include them in the master database, but at this time only a portion of our manufacturer’s have been able to supply accurate weights.
