Where do you ship?

We currently ship within the United States, to Puerto Rico, APO Military Bases & Canada. At this time we are not shipping to any other international locations.

How long does it take my order to ship?

All orders are shipped within 3 business days via USPS. You will receive a confirmation email with a tracking number. USPS Ground Advantage packages can take up to 3 weeks to arrive (although they are often delivered much sooner.) Priority Mail usually takes 1 – 5 business days (depending on your location.)

Canadian orders are only shipped via USPS Priority Shipping. Please be aware that orders may take at least 10 business days for delivery and additional import taxes may be due at delivery.

What if I didn’t include the correct shipping address for my order?

Please make sure before purchasing that your address is correct as we only ship to the address provided on the order. All orders receive a tracking number. Please contact your local post office to see how they can help. If an order is returned to us due to an incorrect shipping address being provided, it is the buyer’s responsibility to pay for additional postage.

Does my order come with a tracking number?

Yes, you will receive an email with a tracking number once your order is shipped. Please view this tracking number to check on the status of your package. Please allow up to 72 hours for your tracking to be updated.

Why hasn’t USPS updated my tracking?

USPS often does not scan Ground Advantage (and less commonly Priority) packages until they reach their destination city post office. Please allow up to 72 hours for your tracking to be updated and up to 3 weeks for delivery for USPS Ground Advantages Packages.

What do I do if my tracking says my package was delivered but I did not receive it?

Please check your order and make sure the correct shipping address was entered. So that they can meet their quotas, USPS often prematurely scans packages as delivered even though they won’t be delivered until the next day. Please give your package an extra 24 hours for delivery and check to see if your neighbors have received your package. If your item still has not shown up please contact your local post office. Please know that we are not responsible for packages once they are scanned and in the possession of USPS.

What happens if my package is lost in the mail?

Please contact your local post office first. Orders with insurance can file a claim. Please know that we are not responsible for packages once they are in the possession of USPS.

Can I get insurance for my order?

USPS Priority packages come with $100 insurance. USPS First Class Packages do not. If you would like insurance please select the Priority shipping option at checkout. If you would like to purchase additional insurance to cover the total cost of your order, please add the appropriate amount of insurance here.

What happens if my item arrives damaged?

All items are inspected prior to shipment and packed with love. Please know that we are not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged packages. Please contact your local USPS post office.

If an item arrives damaged and you have insurance for your order, please file a claim with USPS as soon as possible. All claims must have a photo of the damaged item included. If you would like insurance please select the Priority shipping option at checkout (which includes $50 worth of insurance.) If you would like to purchase additional insurance to cover the total cost of your order, please add the appropriate amount of insurance here.
