Hospital, senior living, hospice, campus & hotel deliveries in Lewiston

A basket ships by parcel to a street address, so it cannot go to a PO box, a graveside or a service. What it can do is reach a bedside, a resident's door, a campus mailroom or a hotel front desk, as long as the order names the person the way that place expects. Below, the kinds of places in and around Lewiston that boxes get sent to, how each one receives a parcel, and a local example laid out the way the label should read. For a service itself, the same-day flowers on this page go by hand through the local florist.

Hospitals

Parcels go to the hospital's receiving desk or mailroom and are brought up by staff, so pick a delivery day that lands before the expected discharge. Baked goods, fruit and snack boxes suit a room; nothing that needs a fridge. Where a unit does not allow fresh flowers, a basket or a plant is the surer gift.

Ship to Patient's full name, unit and room St Mary's Regional Medical Center Acute care hospital with an emergency department93 Campus Avenue - Po Box 291Lewiston, ME 04243

Also near Lewiston: Central Maine Medical Center.

Senior living and nursing homes

Reception signs for the box and staff bring it through, so a weekday delivery reaches the resident faster than a Saturday one. Soft baked goods, fruit and sugar-free boxes are the usual choice.

Also near Lewiston: Russell Park Rehabilitation & Living Center and St Mary's D'youville Pavilion, and 5 more.

Hospice care

Reception signs. Most senders choose something the relatives keeping vigil can share: coffee, tea, cookies, fruit.

Also near Lewiston: Beacon Hospice, An Amedisys Company.

Colleges and campus mailrooms

Campus mailrooms hold parcels for pickup and notify the student, so a text to say a box is on the way helps. Exam weeks and move-in are the busy times; care packages go out two business days ahead.

Hotels

The front desk matches the box to the reservation and hands it over at check-in. Ship for the day the guest arrives or the day before, never for after checkout.

  2. Your basket is packed to order by one of our gift basket partners.
  3. It ships 2-day to Lewiston; you get a shipping confirmation with tracking when it leaves.
  4. The carrier brings it to the door, the front desk or the mailroom on the day you chose, so it is worth checking that someone will be around.

Next-day delivery is offered for some regions at certain times of the year; the checkout calendar shows what is available for your recipient's address.

Flowers and fruit baskets (hand-delivered the same day)

Order bySame-day delivery
Monday–Friday2:00 PM
Saturday12:45 PM
SundayNot available*

Times are your recipient's local time (Eastern). Flowers and fruit baskets on this page are fulfilled by James Cress Florist (family-run since 1903) through a florist near Lewiston that it has vetted: that shop makes the piece from fresh stock and brings it to the door by hand. *Sundays: the florists in that network deliver only on a few major holidays. In the rare case that no florist near Lewiston can take the order, the full amount is refunded.

If I order a basket today, when can it reach Lewiston?

Baskets ship 2-day, sooner in some regions, and you pick the delivery day on the calendar at checkout. An order placed by 3:45 PM Eastern can arrive as soon as two days later; the calendar shows the exact days open for your recipient's ZIP code (04240, 04241, 04243).

Can a basket be shipped to St Mary's Regional Medical Center?

Yes. St Mary's Regional Medical Center sits 2 miles out from Lewiston, and the box goes to its street address. Address the box to the patient's full name with the unit or room number and use the hospital's street address. Hospitals take parcels at a receiving desk or mailroom and staff bring them up, so pick a delivery day that lands before the expected discharge; a box that arrives after the patient has left sits in the mailroom until someone claims it. Fresh flowers are not allowed on some units, so for intensive care or oncology a basket or a plant is the surer gift.

When to ship what to Lewiston

Baskets travel by parcel and can wait on a step for an afternoon, so the month decides the contents. Thirty-year averages for Lewiston, month by month, with the ones that matter marked.

  1. Jan 28°12° Freezing
  2. Feb 32°14° Freezing
  3. Mar 40°23° Freezing
  4. Apr 53°35° Snow
  5. May 65°46°
  6. Jun 74°56° Wettest
  7. Jul 80°62°
  8. Aug 79°60°
  9. Sep now 70°52°
  10. Oct 58°41° Wettest
  11. Nov 45°31° Freezing
  12. Dec 34°20° Freezing

September in Lewiston: afternoons around 70°F, nights around 52°F. Nothing in the forecast averages argues against a doorstep delivery; any basket in the catalog travels well.

Freezing nights (January, February, March, November and December). The average low reaches 12°F in January. Jams, sauces and fresh fruit should not spend a night outside; offices, senior residences and hospitals all receive indoors.

Snow (January, February, March, April and December). About 65 inches a year on average. Allow one extra business day when the date matters: a birthday box that ships two days out still lands on time if it leaves three days out.

Wettest months (October and June). Around 4.9 and 4.3 inches of rain on average. Boxes are sealed, not waterproof: a covered porch or a workplace address keeps the packaging presentable.

Weather only matters for the shipped box. The same-day flowers on this page are carried in by a local florist and handed over, whatever the month.

Normals: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information, 1991 to 2020, Lewiston station, 2.5 miles from Lewiston. Heat: average high 85°F or more. Freezing: average low 32°F or less. Snow: 2 inches or more in the month. Wettest: the two months with the most rain.
