How to Have Jewelry Delivered for Valentine's Day
While having jewelry sent directly to your Valentine is appealing, you should only do this if you can assure a smooth delivery. However, if the recipient has a set schedule and you can pinpoint the delivery time correctly, by all means arrange a wonderful surprise delivered to her workplace or other location.

Gather the specific details of your darling's whereabouts for the time of the delivery. If Valentine's Day falls during the week, you might want to call her assistant or supervisor at work to find out what time she will be going to lunch or if she has meetings scheduled. With such an expensive parcel, you don't want it falling into the wrong hands or getting lost in a busy mailroom.

Have jewelry delivered to your Valentine's home. A package of jewelry sent to a private residence has a better chance of a straightforward delivery. If you know that a typical routine for your girlfriend or spouse is to read the paper over her morning coffee, see if a mail company can guarantee an early delivery.

Send flowers--you can have a little gift of jewelry tucked inside a box of roses or nestled in the middle of a mixed bouquet. Meet with a florist you can trust to work out the details for dropping off the jewelry, the specific instructions for the time of the delivery and what packaging you would like.

Tips & Warnings
To get expensive jewelry delivered, you will most likely need a signature confirmation. Expedite your gift delivery by having it sent to a local FedEx or UPS facility. You will be able to pick up the item at your convenience, rather than trying to coordinate a home delivery with a courier service.
If sending jewelry through the United States Postal Service, have the item insured and pay extra for a delivery confirmation. The USPS provides coverage for loss or damages up to several thousand dollars for most mail services.
