Shipping & Returns

Calgary delivery is available for a flat rate fee of $10.00/order.

Qualifying orders of over $200 (before taxes and/or deposit) are delivered for free†

Location of delivery must be within Calgary city limits.

Delivery date and time window can be selected during the checkout process.

For all deliveries someone of Legal Drinking Age must be present at the time of delivery.

In the event nobody is available at the time of delivery, orders will be dropped off at the closest Highlander location.

For areas outside of Calgary, we ship our products via Canada Post Expedited and ATS Healthcare. If you would like your order shipped via ATS, please let us know in the comments section of the checkout.

Shipping cost is dependent on shipping location and weight of product ordered. Shipping cost is generated directly by Canada Post during the checkout process. If the cost of shipping via ATS is the cheaper option, you will receive a refund for the difference.

Orders shipped via Canada Post typically take between 7 to 21 days from time of order. Tracking numbers will be provided once the order has been shipped

Highlander will always do everything in our power to ensure your order is safely packaged. We use highly durable pulp shippers, however once your order is handed over to the courier Highlander is no longer liable for it§

§ Shipping during the winter and summer months is inherently risky. Please be aware that we will delay shipping if we feel that there is a chance your package may be affected by extreme weather conditions. If we delay the shipping of your package, we will inform you with as much notice as possible. If you would like to go ahead with the shipping regardless of the weather, Highlander Wine & Spirits is not liable for any damage to your order from extreme weather conditions.

† Free Calgary delivery only applies to orders with a pre-tax total of $200 or more. Some exclusions apply, and this offer may end, or the qualifying total may change without notice. Not applicable to cancelled orders or orders delayed due to out-of-stock merchandise.

Downtown Corporate Delivery orders are completed in Calgary every Tuesday and Edmonton every Monday. Orders placed within three days of delivery will not be delivered until the next cycle.

Delivery and pickup times may be affected by weather, order volumes or other factors.
