Where we ship

  • We currently ship wine to eligible U.S. states where permitted by law. An adult (21+) signature is required on delivery.  Due to ever changing direct-shipping laws and regulations, the states that we ship to are subject to change at any time. Title to, and ownership of, all wine passes from Daily Bottle Drop (The Liquor Cabinet) to the purchaser in the State of New York and the purchaser takes all responsibility for shipping it from New York to his/her home state. By arranging for transport of the wine, Daily Bottle Drop is providing a service to, and acting on behalf of the purchaser. By utilizing this service from Daily Bottle Drop, the purchaser is representing that he/she is acting in a fashion compliant with his/her local and state laws regarding the purchase, transportation and delivery of wine. The purchaser represents that he/she has obtained any required permission, paid any required fees, is working through properly licensed intermediaries where required, is legally entitled to take possession of wine, is legally entitled to take quantities ordered, and authorizes that he/she is 21 years of age. If a buyer lives in a state where the direct shipment of wine may violate the law, we will contact the buyer to discuss shipping options, which may include provision of an alternative shipping address in a state where the direct shipment of wine to consumers is permitted.
  • We cannot ship to P.O. boxes. For questions about your state, please contact us before ordering.
  • We currently do not ship to the following states: Maine, Alaska and Hawaii

Shipping Costs

Simple, flat‑rate shipping (Ground) We keep shipping predictable—and we subsidize most carrier costs so your bottles arrive safe and fast.

Why the Mixed Case rate is a great deal

  • A typical 12‑bottle shipment costs ~$45+ with adult‑signature, protective packaging, and residential delivery. We take care of most of that so your case ships for Free—no surprises at checkout.

Order sizes over 12 bottles ships for FREE.

Packaging and protection

  • Breakage‑proof shippers: All bottles are  packed in industry‑standard, protective cartons designed for safe transit.
  • Adult signature: Carriers require a 21+ signature; consider shipping to a business address to ensure first‑attempt delivery.

Weather policy (hot/cold months)

  • Your wine matters. In extreme heat or cold, we may recommend a complimentary weather hold until conditions improve. If you need immediate delivery, we offer a cold‑pack upgrade at checkout (additional fee) to help protect your bottles in transit.

Address changes, re‑delivery, and missed deliveries

  • Once in transit, address changes or re‑routes may incur carrier fees. Missed deliveries may trigger a second attempt or a pickup at a local carrier facility (adult ID required).

Damages and issues

  • In the rare event of damage, photograph the box and bottles within 48 hours and email support with your order number. We’ll make it right with a replacement or refund as appropriate.

Taxes and fees

  • Applicable state/local taxes are calculated at checkout. Adult‑signature fees are included in our flat rates—no surprise add‑ons.

Carrier partners

  • We ship via licensed carriers (e.g., UPS/FedEx) experienced with adult‑signature alcohol deliveries.

Pre‑order and backorder items

  • If your order includes pre‑order items, we’ll ship once the full order is ready. Need split shipping? Contact support and we’ll do our best to accommodate (additional shipping may apply).

Why we use flat rates

  • Predictable pricing reduces checkout surprises and helps us subsidize the majority of real shipping costs—while still delivering fast, protected, adult‑signature service.
