What is a Standing Order?

A standing order is composed of the products you know you will want for every delivery. We strongly recommend using a standing order to protect yourself, should you forget to call in an order. Additional products can be delivered every other week, every third week, or once a month. Remember, order changes can be made up until 10:30am on the day before your delivery.  Monday orders must be received by 10:30am on Friday.

Why do l need an insulated dairy box and how do I obtain one?

We deliver the finest quality products available. Severe changes in temperature will reduce the lifespan of our products. Insulated dairy boxes protect the products, if a cooler is not available we will most likely not be able to deliver to you. We recommend to leave the cooler out at all times.

What should I do with the empty milk bottles?

All glass bottles may be reused. Just rinse out the empties and place them in your dairy box before your next delivery. Your milkman will collect them on your next delivery day, so they may be returned to the dairy to be sanitized.  A bottle deposit charge of 50 cents per bottle will apply if we do not receive your empties. Invoices will reflect bottle credits or bottle deposits if you do not leave the exact number of bottles delivered. Please do not leave our bottles out for recycling! Help the world’s ecology efforts. It would also be greatly appreciated if you could leave your porch light on for the milkman.

What needs to be done if l am going on vacation?

Just call our office and let us know what days you will not require delivery and when you would like to resume delivery. A delivery charge will be assessed if no dairy box is left out, or if a last minute note to skip deliveries is left for the milkman.

What happens when my delivery day is a holiday?

Unless you receive a change of delivery notice prior to the holiday, you will receive your regular order on that holiday. If you are planning to be away on a holiday, follow the vacation procedure.

How am I billed for my orders?

Billing is twice a month. A detailed bill of every product purchased is dropped off, or sent to you at the beginning of the month and between the 15th and 22nd of the month. Balances are due on the date shown on the invoice (approximately two weeks). A late fee of $3.00 will be assessed if the invoice is not paid by the due date. Credit cards are another option and billing is done monthly with no chance of a late fee being assessed.
