How will my order be shipped if I want it shipped to a PO Box / FPO / APO address?

UPS will not ship to a PO Box. Therefore, we will send your order via the US Postal Service. This can take up to 6-14 business days for international orders and standard mailing time for domestic / military orders.

Do you have any overseas distributors?

TrainSignal, Inc. is the sole producer and distributor of our training products. We do not have any overseas retail outlets.

Can I use my Fed Ex or DHL Account instead of shipping with UPS?

You can specify that you would like your order shipped via Fed Ex or DHL if you prefer. Please note this in the comments section when placing your order and provide a valid Fed Ex or DHL account number to which we can bill the shipping charges. Please note this is not standard and must be marked clearly at the time of order placement. Your order will then be credited the shipping cost upon successful shipment.
