Boston Baskets · Israel → Massachusetts
Send Gift Baskets to Massachusetts from Israel
A gift ordered from Israel lands in Massachusetts as a local delivery, not an import. Everything in the basket is packed on this side of the Atlantic and taken to the address you give, on the date you set.
What you fill in from Israel, and what happens here
Keep the two addresses straight and the rest is ordinary: the Massachusetts address is where the basket goes, and your Israeli address is simply what your card is registered to.
Your side of the order
- Your billing address Enter it as your bank in Israel holds it — street address, city and seven-digit postal code (mikud). The checkout form accepts the mikud (postal code) in its usual shape.
- Your telephone number Give the number you actually answer, with your country code. It is used if something about the order needs a quick word, not for marketing.
- Your email Order confirmation and any delivery update go here, so it can be an address you read at your own hours rather than one you check occasionally.
The recipient's side
- Recipient's address Street and ZIP code inside Massachusetts. Everything about the delivery follows from it.
- Delivery date Picked before you add the basket to the cart, from the days open to that address.
- Recipient's phone Used at the door if needed, and for no other purpose.
Check the address before you order
One box, one answer. A Massachusetts ZIP code is inside the delivery area; anything else is not, and it is quicker to know that now than after you have chosen a gift.
Deliveries are planned in advance, so this is not a same-day service — no order goes out on the day it is placed. The delivery date is chosen on the product page and the window is confirmed at checkout. Free on orders of $100 and over.
What a Israeli sender should know
What a Israeli card sees
The message on the card
A personalised greeting message goes with every basket. The card is set in Latin characters. A Hebrew script message will not print, but the same words in Latin letters will.
Keep it shorter than a letter. A card that fits on the card reads better than one that runs off it.
Gifts sent from abroad, in order
Ranked by how often they have been sent by senders outside the United States since January 2023. A different selection from that ranking appears on each country's page, so you are not looking at the same shelf twice. Too few baskets have gone to Massachusetts from Israel for a ranking of its own to mean anything, so the order here is the overseas one rather than a Israeli one.

Before you order from abroad
Which delivery dates can I choose?
Whatever the product page shows for that address. Those are the days actually open to it, and the window is confirmed at checkout. Ordering from overseas neither adds nor removes a day.
Is delivery really free over $100?
Yes, on orders of $100 and over, and it applies to your order exactly as it would to one placed in Boston. Smaller orders show their delivery charge at checkout.
What should I put in the billing address?
Exactly what your bank has: street address, city and seven-digit postal code (mikud). The mikud (postal code) goes in its normal form. Getting it right is what makes the card authorisation go through first time.
Does the recipient have to pay anything?
No. The basket, any add-on and the delivery are all settled when you order. Nobody is asked for money at the door and no invoice follows.
Is the message translated?
No. It is printed exactly as you enter it — nothing is corrected, re-worded or translated. The card prints in Latin characters, so Hebrew should be written in Latin letters.
Can I send a basket with wine or spirits in it?
Yes, and it is handed only to someone 21+ who can show photo ID. If nobody at the address can, the basket cannot be left — so it is worth telling the recipient it is coming.
