This comprehensive Gift Baskets Delivery Guide includes all the information you need to know about delivery and shipping information when ordering your gift baskets for this upcoming holiday season. All delivery and courier services continue to be affected by the ongoing situation brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic, impacting delivery timelines for Christmas and holiday orders. Major courier services including UPS and Purolator have suspended guaranteed delivery dates, currently experiencing delays of up to 1-3 business days. The anticipated delay for deliveries during Christmas is 7-10 business days. Because of this information, MyBaskets has the following delivery timelines: 

For corporate business orders which include bulk holiday gift baskets and employee appreciation gifts, the deadline to submit your corporate order is November 25th. This year has presented many challenges, and we expect these challenges only to grow as we enter the holiday season. Because of the anticipated shipping delays, we cannot deliver corporate baskets after December 18th. Major courier services have warned us of the anticipated delivery delays, and even though they are preparing themselves as best they can by hiring 1000+ employees for the holiday season, the volume of orders that are already pouring in prove the expected delays will be unlike those of any holidays prior. Courier services are expecting delays of up to 5+ business days additional to their normal delivery timelines. 

For residential orders, MyBaskets will only be delivering baskets up to December 21st. Again, with the sheer volume of orders already coming in for this holiday season in which so many people are anticipating not being able to be face to face with their dearest family members and friends like past years, many people are sending Christmas and holiday gift baskets instead. In order to get your holiday baskets delivered in a timely manner to your dearest family and friends, we will not be doing deliveries after December 21st.

We have personally received official letters from all courier services including UPS, Purolator, Fedex, Canpar, etc. notifying us that distribution centres are extremely behind due to the Covid-19 pandemic. They have declared no guarantee delivery dates moving forward. This means that even though MyBaskets covers shipping fees on the majority of baskets as these couriers have always had reliable next business day delivery times, these same deliveries can now take 2-4 business days depending on the delivery address. 

This is a reality all delivery services are experiencing and have no control over and are all trying our very best to ensure timely and safe delivery of your parcels. This is all the reasoning behind why we are asking for everyone to please order as far in advance as possible, to ensure we can get your delivery out early with the knowledge of these delays, and the order will hopefully arrive on your preferred delivery date if you have one set. This is also the reason we have set these strict order and delivery deadlines in place. 

We truly ask for everyone's patience and understanding this holiday season with the ongoing situation. MyBaskets is doing our best to prepare for what is most likely to be the busiest and craziest holiday season yet. We appreciate your support, and want to make sure this Christmas time is special for all of the people close to you in your life, whether that be your employees, coworkers, family members, friends, significant others, the list goes on. The 2020 holiday season will still be unforgettable, and MyBaskets wants to help ensure that for you. 

All of our holiday gift baskets include classic holiday favourites, from items such as hot cocoa, shortbread cookies, holiday chocolates like Lindor truffles, and for those extra special moments, we have a line of holiday baskets that include bottles of premium wine or French champagne, perfect for celebrating. 

To order Christmas baskets in advance for 2020, you're probably wondering when the best time to order Christmas baskets in 2020 to make sure they arrive on time? In this post, we've laid out all of the information you need to know about how safe delivery is during Covid-19 and what shipping costs are for ordering gift baskets in Canada for Christmas 2020.  

When should I order Christmas baskets in 2020 to arrive on time? 

Only orders placed before the 1st of December are assured to arrive on time for Christmas, but anything after is not guaranteed to arrive on a specific date on or around Christmas. It is best to order well in advance to ensure your basket arrives to your loved ones on time. Covid-19 will add more strain on delivery services this Christmas 2020, and it is in yours, and our, best interest to ensure your orders are placed in a timely manner so that we may best organize our operations to suit your needs this Christmas. We will deliver any any order placed to be delivered anywhere in Canada, but orders outside of Ontario are out of our control and therefore not guaranteed to arrive on a specific date.

What is the shipping cost for ordering gift baskets in Canada 2020?

MyBaskets offers free delivery anywhere in Canada on orders over $100. This means that if you're sending a basket across the country, we can get it to your loved ones without any outrageous shipping costs if you're basket is over $100. There is a shipping charge of $15-$25 for baskets under $100. Please note that same day delivery within the GTA and surrounding areas is not guaranteed during the month of December due to high order volumes and delivery service delays, so it is best to order in advance. 

How safe is delivery during Covid-19?

Our Covid-19 safe delivery protocols includes contactless delivery to ensure there is no contact between drivers, staff and recipients to comply with Covid-19 social distancing measures. To make delivery a comfortable experience for both your recipients and our drivers, we are no longer asking for signatures upon delivery to limit physical contact due to Covid-19, so you can rest easy knowing we are keeping your loved ones safe this holiday season. 

Order Christmas baskets in advance in 2020 because if you're a last minute shopper, 2020 is definitely not the year to leave Christmas shopping to the last minute! With social distancing measures in effect due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic that has forced both restricted social gatherings and seemingly never-ending travel bans, Christmas 2020 is going to look a bit different this year. We can help you get your Christmas baskets delivered on time with advanced ordering because knowing with the impending dark cloud of a second wave that has already hit many parts of the world, MyBaskets wants to make sure that you are able to send the warmest of wishes to your friends, family, and the ones you care about most this holiday season - and all from the comfort (and safety) of your own home! 

Online Christmas shopping has been on the rise for the last few years, and for good reason. Not having to wait in lines at overcrowded malls or circle the parking lot just to find a spot has quite the appeal. Being able to browse through websites in your PJs while sipping a cup of coffee (or glass of wine), filling your virtual cart and having the items delivered right to your door - sometimes even gift wrapped - makes that appeal even more logical. The problem is, once the package arrives, it's up to you to deliver it to your recipient. And in previous years, this probably didn't pose much of a problem. You knew you'd see that person at the next work party or on Christmas Eve at Grandma's house. So what about 2020? What happens next?

MyBaskets has a huge selection of holiday gift baskets, with gourmet holiday baskets or simpler options, that get delivered right to your recipient's door complete with a personalized greeting card and topped with a handmade bow. With delivery all over Canada and free shipping on orders over $100.00, spreading Christmas joy to your loved ones won't be difficult this year, even if seeing people in person is not an option. However, with the undeniable storm of delays that is bound to make shipping schedules even more unreliable than usual this holiday season, it is best to get your Christmas gift basket orders in as soon as possible. Ordering well in advance of dates around and on Christmas is the best way to assure your gift baskets arrive on time. There will undoubtedly be a huge strain on delivery services come Christmas 2020, and it is in yours, and our, best interest to ensure your orders are placed in a timely manner so that we may best organize our operations to suit your needs this Christmas. 

Everyone deserves to feel loved and thought of during the holidays, and 2020 more than ever is the year we need to send these thoughts to our friends and loved ones. Our holiday gift baskets have a taste for everyone, with festive twists on our classic gourmet sweet and savoury gift baskets, Kosher gift baskets, gluten-free gift basket options, gift baskets for children, and literally so much more! The perfect holiday gift is a click away. Just make sure to get your orders in on time so we can make sure your loved ones don't feel forgotten because of delivery delays. While we can't replace the feeling of being together this season, MyBaskets holiday gift collection is sure to let your recipient know you're thinking of them during these trying times. 

A savoury gift basket is the perfect sentiment for your dearest friends, relatives and coworkers for any occasion. Whether you're looking for a housewarming gift, a sympathy gift to send your condolences, or to say thank you with a gesture they'll never forget, our gift baskets are filled with premium quality products that will get even your sincerest of messages across. 

MyBaskets new line of gourmet gift baskets are filled with savoury food items that are great for party hosting or to enjoy after a long day. There is nothing quite like a spread of fine brie cheese, artisan bread snacks and a selection of sweet and salty accompaniments like Spanish olives or fruit compote to satisfy even the most sophisticated foodie cravings. Well, our savoury gourmet baskets include all of these gourmet products already mentioned, and many, many more! 

Without a doubt, a food gift basket such as one of our savoury baskets is sure to impress any recipient. Looking for a birthday gift but not sure where to start or what to buy?
