Every piece of hardware at Old West Iron is custom forged and carefully packed to ensure it arrives in excellent condition. Whether you’re ordering a few accent screws or outfitting a full project, we’ll ship it using the most efficient method—keeping your timeline and budget in mind
At Old West Iron, we take pride not only in our handcrafted, American-made hardware but also in ensuring it reaches your doorstep as quickly, safely, and affordably as possible. Because our products vary widely in size and weight—from small decorative screws to large pizza oven doors or table bases—we use both USPS and UPS to deliver your order.
Here’s what to expect when it comes to shipping your Old West Iron purchase:
USPS vs. UPS: How We Choose the Carrier
By default, all standard-sized orders are shipped via USPS. However, if your order is particularly large, heavy, or oversized, we’ll automatically upgrade the shipment to UPS to ensure faster and safer delivery.
We always select the most cost-effective option with the fastest delivery time, based on your location and the package dimensions. This allows us to keep shipping prices fair for our customers without compromising delivery quality.
Can’t Receive USPS or UPS? Let Us Know
We understand that some delivery addresses—particularly in rural areas, apartment complexes, or gated communities—may have limitations on which carriers can deliver.
If you cannot receive packages from either USPS or UPS, it’s very important to let us know in the comments section at checkout. This helps us avoid failed delivery attempts, unnecessary delays, or returned shipments. You can also leave gate codes, alternate delivery instructions, or special requests to help your package arrive smoothly.
