About Quick Ship
Quick Ship meal delivery helps you shop food in SendaMeal's Quick Ship shipping group. Compare meals, package contents and preparation instructions, then check the current delivery schedule and available checkout methods. Quick Ship does not mean same-day meal delivery, and processing time is separate from time in transit.
Plan your Quick Ship meal delivery
- Check the current schedule: QS identifies products in the Quick Ship shipping group. Review the current Ground QS, Expedited QS and Overnight QS information on our delivery schedule. Only the methods available for your specific order are shown at checkout.
- Allow for processing and transit: Timing depends on the products, destination and shipping method. Weather, carrier delays and order volume can affect delivery. Products from different shipping groups may have different timing and shipping charges.
- Choose food that fits the household: Compare servings, package contents, ingredients and preparation requirements. Some items need cooking and others need reheating. Confirm that the recipient can receive and store perishable food, and follow the product-specific handling instructions.
Before you order
Physical meal orders ship to the 48 contiguous United States via FedEx or UPS. Frozen meals are packed with dry ice in insulated packaging. If arrival before a particular occasion is essential, review the current schedule and contact us before ordering. Do not assume same-day dispatch, a universal one-to-three-day transit time or guaranteed arrival on an exact date.

Common questions about quick ship meal delivery
How fast can Quick Ship meals arrive?
There is no single arrival time for every Quick Ship order. Review the current Delivery Dates & Shipping Schedule and the methods offered at checkout for your products and destination. Processing and transit are separate, and weather, carrier delays or order volume can affect timing.
What does QS mean in the shipping options?
QS identifies products in the Quick Ship shipping group. The delivery schedule lists Ground QS, Expedited QS and Overnight QS information. Availability and charges depend on the order; a Quick Ship label does not guarantee same-day dispatch or same-day physical delivery.
Can I send Quick Ship meals as a last-minute gift?
Yes, if the available shipping timing works for the occasion. Review the current schedule and checkout methods, confirm the recipient's address and ability to receive perishable food, and add a personal gift message. Contact us before ordering if you need help with a particular deadline.
How is Quick Ship different from Delivered Today?
Quick Ship is for physical food shipments in the Quick Ship shipping group. Delivered Today is for eligible digital gifts sent by email, including gift cards and meal gift vouchers. Emailing a gift today does not mean the physical meal arrives today; food fulfillment follows the applicable order or redemption process.
