How will my order ship?

We ship all US orders out of our Seattle, WA warehouse using FedEx or USPS. Canadian orders ship out of our Kamloops, BC warehouse using best method ground shipping. As soon as your order leaves our location, an email confirmation will be sent to you with a link to your tracking number.


Washington locals:

Within Washington state, paying for 2-day shipping may not be necessary. Ground Shipping typically takes 1-2 days business days, and Fed Ex Ground Economy typically takes 2-4 business days, but neither are guaranteed to arrive that quickly.

Orders can be placed online and picked up at our Seattle, WA Flagship store or at our Des Moines, WA Outlet store. Pickup orders may take up to 48 hours to process and will be held for 10 days. Retail store hours can be found here.
