Why or Will a Signature Required be place on my package?

In most cases a signature will not be required on delivery of your order. However, in certain circumstances the shipper will require a signature based on the monetary value of the merchandise and/or the potential for loss in a delivery area. Once a signature required is placed on the package, Birthday Direct is unable to remove it and the shipper may place a signature required at any point during transit.
