Shipping Info

Most items are ready to ship and will ship within 5-10 business days after ordering. We are a small team and appreciate your patience with us as we work to get orders out as quickly as possible. 

We offer free standard shipping on orders over $500 CAD. We always suggest purchasing tracking if you are concerned about shipment times. 

Please be aware that shipping carriers have experienced an increase in parcel mail and to expect delays due to this. We are unable to see more than what the tracking information provides. 

Shelter is not legally responsible for lost or damaged goods. We recommend purchasing tracked shipping when possible and keeping all confirmation details securely, should further investigation be required. 

Priority Shipping

We do not have the capacity to prioritize faster shipping at this time. If you choose priority shipping, please note that your order will still be subject to the 5-10 days of processing time to be shipped out, but it will be shipped with the priority service meaning your shipping timeframe will be much shorter than the other shipping options. Again, shipping timelines cannot be guaranteed by us as once your order is with Canada Post, it is in their hands.

 

 

Sale Items

Please note, that any item purchased at a discount is final sale and therefore not eligible for returns.

ALL sale items, promotional code items and custom ordered items are FINAL sale.

 

Estimated Shipping Times

  • Canada : 5 - 8 business days
  • North America : 5 - 10 business days
  • Europe : 2 - 3 weeks

We do our best to meet these shipping estimates, but cannot guarantee them.

Combining Orders

Orders placed separately will ship separately. Our team is unable to combine orders placed at different times. Requests to so do in your order notes or via email will not be accommodated. Thank you for understanding!

Disclaimer

Shelter is not legally responsible for any lost, damaged, or stolen packages. Once the item is shipped it is no longer our responsibility. 

Should you have questions regarding the whereabouts of your package, please review the tracking information and contact Canada Post as needed.
