SHIPPING POLICY

Please Note Due to Covid-19 Shipping may take longer than normal. We appreciate your patience.

Items are shipped out via USPS Priority Mail on business days. Priority Mail normally takes about 3 business days to arrive. Currently, we only ship domestically within USA.

If applicable, you may track your package at USPS Post website, or log into your account to review your order. All orders are processed by our team. We prepare and ship orders as quickly as possible when they are placed, but we ask that you allow 3 business days for your order to be fulfilled. Any order placed after 05:00 pm EST may not be processed until the next business day (so, if you place an order on Friday after 05:00pm EST or later, it may not be processed until Monday morning). Weekends and some holidays do not count as business days.

Some orders can take longer if there are credit card authorization or security issues or high holiday season volume. To ensure the quickest processing time, especially during the busy holiday seasons, please make sure to add a contact number such as a cell phone or work number when you are checking out. While most orders arrive in a very timely manner, shipping times cannot be guaranteed. Delivery delays can occur due to weather,  postal errors or other factors beyond our control.

Following these procedures help ensure your orders are processed quickly and smoothly:

       1. Include a contact number at checkout
       2. Double-check the address and all information before submitting your order.
       3. Add [email protected]  to your email allow list to be sure that you'll receive email notifications if there are any questions or issues with your order.
       4. If you receive a notice or call asking you to contact us, please respond. It often means that we will not be able to proceed without additional information from you.
       5. If you are emailing about an order, please include the name the order was placed in and the order number, if known. This will help us locate your order information and respond more quickly.

Oversized Packages:

Orders consisting of physically large items may be classified as oversized by the US Post. This can cause the shipping cost to differ from what was calculated at checkout. In this event, we will contact you with an exact shipping cost for your approval before proceeding with the order. Please understand that oversized status and any additional costs are determined by the shipping services and are not under our control.

If the shipping address for your order does not match the billing address on your credit card, we may require you to list the alternate address with your credit card company. This extra step in the ordering process helps prevent fraudulent use of your credit card. We may need to contact you via either the phone number or email address that you provided with your order to inform you of this requirement.

Free Shipping:

Free shipping is available when the order total is $99USD or more (before taxes and not including shipping). This discount will be added automatically to your order.

Curbside Pick-up:

If you choose curbside pick-up at checkout, please call us when you arrive at 443-604-3578. Please let us know the make and model of your car, and have your receipt handy. We recommend parking in front of the West Parking lot entrance. Please note our shop hours, as we will be unable to deliver outside of that time.
