Shipping Information


Same-Day Shipping

We strive to ship most UPS orders the same business day if we receive your order by 12:00pm Central Time.*

If your order absolutely, positively needs to ship the same business day, give us a call at (812) 429-1634 so we can expedite the order processing. Select orders may require additional processing time based on their size, cutting method, and quantity. Keep reading to learn more about our order processing and shipping policies.


Order Processing:

*Most UPS orders are processed and shipped within 1 business day. However, if your order absolutely, positively needs to ship the same business day, give us a call at (812) 429-1634 so we can expedite the order processing. Select orders may require additional processing time based on their size, cutting method, and quantity. Unlike typical online orders that are pre-boxed and ready to go, custom-cut metals are processed from mill sizes and custom-packaged per order. Cut2Size may divide the shipment into separate packages to ensure each item is properly secured and protected. We take exceptional care to ensure every order meets our customers' expectations for accuracy, quality, and secure packaging to arrive undamaged.

Shipping Options:

At this time Cut2Size Metals only ships to the United States.  Please keep in mind the following considerations:

  1. Shipping charges and methods are determined by the final packed size, weight, and destination of an order (not by the metal piece itself).
  2. Package lengths 6ft and over include an Extreme Length Fee by UPS. You can avoid this fee by selecting shorter lengths.
  3. Package lengths over 9ft, finished box sizes over 48in x 48in and weights over 150lbs exceed UPS size limitations and must ship via LTL Truck Freight.

Save on Shipping with the "Cut in 1/2 to Ship" Option:

What Does "Cut in 1/2 to Ship" mean? Some of our customers like the ability to order full lengths of bar, angle, tube, or other extrusions, but are using smaller pieces and want them cut in half so that they will ship UPS (instead of freight). This can save money on shipping, as long as you can use smaller pieces. You will be able to select this option before adding your item to the shopping cart. If you check this box, please keep the following things in mind:

  • We will cut the piece(s) ROUGHLY in half but do not guarantee the sizes when you choose this option.
  • If you need exact sizes, use the "custom cut" option on each page.
  • If none of this makes sense to you, give us a call at (812) 429-1634 and we can help!
