Shipment Tracking
If you provided us with your email address at time of order, you will receive an email with your UPS tracking information. You may also call us after 2pm on the day of shipment to obtain your tracking number. You can track shipments at www.ups.com or by calling UPS at 1-800-PICK-UPS.

Packaging
All of our live lobsters and seafood is hand picked and packaged in insulated boxes, cushioned with seaweed or wet newspaper, and refrigerated with gel packs. Your package will also contain complimentary cooking instructions, bibs and mats.

Gift Shipments
If you are sending live lobsters as a gift, please be sure to inform the recipient. Trust us when we say that a box of dead lobsters—because the recipient wasn't expecting a package and didn't check their front door—does not make a very nice gift! If you prefer the element of surprise, we recommend sending a New Meadows Lobster Gift Certificate.

Weather Policy
We will do everything in our power to anticipate shipping problems and contact you before your package ships. New Meadows Lobster is not responsible for packages that are delayed due to inclement weather.

Problems or Questions?
Please contact us within 24 hours of receiving your package so that we may help address any problems or questions you may have. You may contact us at 1-800-668-1612 or lobsters@newmeadowslobster.com.
