Shipping Options

Our sales staff will strive their best to ship your music in the most effective and cost-efficient manner.

The charge is calculated at the time your order is packaged and shipped. Actual shipping charges will vary based on size of package, weight and distance traveled.

In addition, residential shipments, particularly to rural areas, are typically calculated at higher rates than deliveries made to commercial locations.

We also offer International and Express Shipping. See below for details. 

Our preferred carriers in the US are the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) and UPS.   You can indicate in the comment section on your order form your preferred method.  Below are estimates of the most common domestic shipping costs. Arrival times are based on business days.

Express shipping is available, but cost will vary.  Please call the store for more details.

International shipping prices vary greatly depending on weight and location.  If you need a more precise amount, please let us know in the comment section when you place your order. We typically ship International orders by DHL, which tends to be cheaper and faster than most of our available domestic dervices like UPS and USPS. If we find that anotehr service would be significantly cheaper than DHL, we will contact you first with your options.


A handling fee of $3.00 will be added for each parcel to cover packaging costs. This is typically already included in your shipping charge (noted above), or charged separately if we are billing your businesses' collect shipping account. 

Customers requesting delivery directly from a publisher (drop shipment) will also be charged the publisher's drop shipment fee.  The fee normally ranges between $5.00- $10.00.  Please contact our store for details.
