Ordering from Washington · delivered in Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia
Send gift baskets to Washington DC from Washington
A Washington card, a recipient in the Washington area — the same checkout. Baskets are packed in New Jersey and couriered to the DMV, free from $100 an address.
Entering the addresses
Checkout asks for the recipient's address first and your billing address second; only the delivery address decides the timing and the tax.
Where you are — Washington
The billing address only needs to match your card; nothing from it reaches the recipient.
The recipient's address
Street, unit or suite, city, state and ZIP, plus a phone number the recipient answers — the courier uses it if the door goes unanswered.
Our New Jersey timings, in Pacific time
Everything is packed in one place, our New Jersey warehouse, which works to Eastern time; the line below is given in Pacific time as it stands today, so a Washington sender knows when to press the button. You choose the recipient's delivery date at checkout; the dispatch line and the transit time together decide the earliest one the checker will offer.

When can it arrive?
Enter the recipient's ZIP code — the answer comes from the same delivery service the checkout uses.
Everything travels by courier from our New Jersey warehouse: orders placed by 2 p.m. Eastern leave the same business day, then 1–2 business days in transit to the Washington DC area. Free shipping from $100 per address.
Gifts sent to the DC area most
Too few Washington orders to rank on their own, so this is what senders outside the capital region choose most, since January 2023.
$117 is the median order from Washington: as many below it as above.
Washington's recipients, across the DMV
Of the gifts Washington sends to the capital region since January 2023, this is which side of the river they land on. December is the busiest month for gifts from Washington, at about 3.4× an average month.
The money side
Sales tax
Worked out from the delivery address, so it is the recipient's own jurisdiction that sets it, whatever Washington charges at home; it appears at checkout before payment.
Any US card
Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover; the billing address just has to match the card.
Bottles need ID
Any gift with alcohol goes to a recipient 21+ with photo ID at the door, wherever in the capital region it is delivered.
Personalise it
Free card with your words; add-ons and bottle upgrades on every product page.

At the door

Ordering questions: Washington to the Washington area
Is it made near the recipient?
From our New Jersey warehouse, never from your state. Everything travels by courier into the capital region, one to two business days to a District, Maryland or Virginia address.
When do I need to order?
Our warehouse works to Eastern time and stops packing at 2 p.m., which is 11 a.m. PDT where you are. Transit follows: one to two business days into the capital region. Same-day delivery is not offered by this store, anywhere.
Whose ZIP goes in the checker?
Theirs — the checker and the checkout work from the recipient's ZIP. Your ZIP only matters on the billing form, where it must match your card.
Is a future date possible?
Yes — choose any later date at checkout; the dispatch and transit times only set the earliest day. For a holiday, order early: closures are skipped and busy periods fill.
Do you deliver to workplaces?
Yes. Give the company name, floor or suite and the hours reception is staffed; business deliveries run during working hours and a gift can be left with reception.
Which tax will I be charged?
The tax of the place the gift is delivered — the District, Maryland or Virginia — worked out from the delivery address, not Washington's rate. It shows at checkout before you pay.
