Always Free Delivery

We deliver to your address in Toronto, Oakville or Mississauga. We have a $75 minimum order - otherwise it doesn't make sense to drive to you. The purple area on the map is further from our home base, so we can only come to you if you have a larger order. In the yellow area (Burlington and Hamilton), we will deliver, but have to resolve some logistic timing issues. If you are in the yellow or purple zones, give us a call to discuss your delivery.
