How To Send Flowers This Mother's Day

If you can’t give flowers for Mom on mothers day flowers in person, sending her a flower bouquet for Mother’s Day is the next best thing. Despite the closure of many small businesses and shipping challenges due to COVID-19, it’s absolutely still possible to ensure that she receives an arrangement in time for the holiday. Various retailers are taking precautions to package their flowers safely, in addition to partnering with delivery services that are still able to send Mother's Day flowers to most residential addresses in the country.

In preparation for Mother's Day, several carriers have taken steps to allow for an influx of floral shipments. UPS tells Woman’s Day that they’ve added flights from flower fields to the U.S., and plan to make use of their special refrigerated warehouses to stage arrangements. UPS also wrote in a statement that the majority of their services "continue with the same expected delivery timeframes our customers have come to expect.” Despite this, it’s probably a good idea to ship your flowers on the early side, since both UPS and FedEx have suspended their money-back guarantees due to COVID-19 uncertainties.

After placing an order in advance, there’s no reason to worry about the potential health implications of shipping flowers to Mom. For starters, the World Health Organization has written that the likelihood of contracting COVID-19 from a package that has traveled and been exposed to different conditions is low. Additionally, UPS, FedEx and the USPS have all taken steps to ensure drivers use masks, gloves and sanitizing products. Another precaution in place by UPS and FedEx is to temporarily suspend the requirement to sign for packages, so delivery can take place without contact. So you can test assured knowing you can safely send flowers to your mom.

With so many beautiful arrangements available this year, and measures in place to delivery them safely, there’s no reason you can’t brighten Mom’s day with a bouquet. We’ve gathered a list of our favorite retailers offering Mother's Day flower deliveries, so you can make her feel special even from miles away.
