2026 Holiday Order Cutoff Dates
Our products will continue to be produced and shipped in our normal service times throughout the holiday season.
To help you plan, and set expectations for your clients, we have put together some dates that will help ensure packages arrive in time for your holiday and Christmas deadlines. H&H service time does not include carrier transit time, so it is important to allow for possible irregular and slower deliveries from shipping carriers during the holiday season.
Order received-by dates
These dates are when we need to receive your orders to allow for normal H&H in-house service time plus the carrier’s published Holiday scheduled transit time. In some cases, you may want to consider upgrading your shipping.
Acrylic Album Covers
Framed Prints – any type
Blankets
Banners / Wall Clings
Schools & Sports (Ship to Home – USPS)
We encourage you to order early, even before our deadline dates, to ensure delivery by the holidays. And don’t hesitate to reach out to us with any concerns, questions, or suggestions.
Album design service
If you are using our design service for albums, the following dates apply for design approval:
- November 30 — Design form and images must be submitted if you are ordering any type of Album or Photographic Pano Book.
- December 7 — Designs must be approved for all album and book collections.
Upgraded shipping
Upgraded shipping can be checked in hhstudio at the time you place your order. FedEx Standard Overnight is a next-day shipping service that is scheduled to arrive by 3:00 pm, the next afternoon.
H&H does not automatically upgrade default shipping services to expedite orders for Christmas. So be sure to request Standard Overnight for those orders you must have before Christmas when ground or 2-day shipping services will not assure delivery in the time you need.
Charges for upgraded shipping are calculated by weight, box dimensions, and zone, and will appear on your invoice. Acrylic prints and blocks, blankets, and lenticulars are excluded.
Carrier holiday deadlines
To decide whether you should request overnight shipping, review the 2026 holiday shipping guidelines from FedEx, USPS, and UPS. The full carrier tables, upgrade details, and a December calendar are on our Holiday Ordering Information page.
