Shipping Options & Delivery Times

Macy’s offers multiple shipping options so you can choose the delivery speed and cost that works best for you. Shipping timelines are based on when your order ships, not when it’s placed, and are measured in business days (excluding weekends and holidays).

 

Things to Keep in Mind

  • Delivery timelines begin after your order ships
  • Business days do not include weekends or holidays
  • Shipping availability and timing may vary by item and destination

Express Shipping Next business day (before cutoff)* Next business–day delivery Pricing varies by Star Rewards tier
