1. Overview
We ship from our facility in metro Detroit, Michigan to all 50 U.S. states and Puerto Rico. We do not ship internationally at this time.
Every order ships with tracking. Most packages will ship via UPS, but it is at our discretion to use an alternative shipper to best service the address.
We do not ship to PO Boxes unless pre-arranged with our support team.
2. Order Processing & Same-Day Cutoff
Orders received by 3:00 pm ET on a business day (Monday through Friday) ship the same day, provided payment has cleared and the order does not require additional verification. On Saturdays we ship orders received by 12:00 pm ET.
Orders placed after the cutoff, on Sundays, or on U.S. federal holidays ship the next business day.
Orders paid by Zelle or other manual-confirmation methods may require additional processing time while we verify payment.
Carrier delivery dates are estimates, not guarantees. Weather, missed scans, and access issues can push them.
3. Shipping Methods & Rates
All shipping rates are calculated at checkout based on destination.
| Method | Lead Time | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Free Expedited Shipping (contiguous 48 only) | Arrives in 2-3 business days | Free on orders $199+ subtotal (after coupons) through Mon Aug 31, 2026; $299+ thereafter |
| Expedited Shipping (contiguous 48 only) | Arrives in 2-3 business days | $12.95 |
| Overnight Shipping (contiguous 48 only) | 1-2 business days | $39.95 |
| Alaska & Hawaii | 2-4 business days | $29.95 flat |
| Puerto Rico (USPS Priority) | 3-5 business days | $24.95 flat |
Lead times begin once the order ships, not from when the order is placed. ezShip Package Protection covers late deliveries on expedited services (see Section 15).
4. Free Shipping Threshold
Orders with a subtotal of $199 or more (calculated after any coupon discounts and excluding shipping, tax, and the ezShip fee) qualify for free shipping through Monday, August 31, 2026. The threshold returns to $299 on September 1, 2026. In the contiguous 48 U.S. states, free shipping is our Expedited service and arrives in 2-3 business days. When eligible, free shipping is selected by default at checkout. You can still switch to a different shipping method (for example, Overnight) and pay the difference if you prefer.
Through Monday, August 31, 2026, qualifying orders to Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico also ship free. Those orders travel at the same service times as the standard paid method for those destinations, which is not an expedited or guaranteed service. After the promotion ends, free shipping applies to the contiguous 48 U.S. states only. Free shipping is never available on Overnight Shipping.
5. Tracking & Delivery Estimates
Tracking is sent in a separate email at the time of fulfillment (when the shipping label is printed), not in the order confirmation. Tracking is also available from your ezPeps account once the label has been generated.
If your order arrives more than 3 business days past the carrier’s estimated delivery date and you have added ezShip Package Protection, see Section 14 for the remedies available to you.
6. Signature-Required Orders
Orders with a subtotal of $500 or more, and any order we flag for additional security, ship with adult signature required at delivery.
If you will not be available to sign, redirect the package to a UPS Access Point, FedEx Hold at Location, or equivalent secured pickup point through the carrier’s tracking page.
If you tell the carrier to leave the package without a signature (UPS My Choice, FedEx Delivery Manager, an InfoNotice slip, etc.), ezShip Package Protection coverage on that shipment is void.
7. Marked Delivered, Not Received
If carrier tracking shows the package as delivered but you have not received it:
- Check the porch, side door, garage, mailbox, and with anyone else at the address, including neighbors or building staff
- Contact the local carrier facility directly, not the 1-800 line. They can often pull GPS scan detail showing where the package was actually dropped
- If the package is still not located, contact us at ezpeps.com/support
| Scenario | With ezShip | Without ezShip |
|---|---|---|
| Marked delivered, not received | Reship or refund after a 24-hour wait and submission of a customer attestation (you searched the property, checked with household, contacted the carrier). Refund remedy requires a police report. | Reviewed case-by-case after carrier investigation. A police report is required for any reship or refund consideration when the order subtotal exceeds $100. |
| Porch theft (confirmed delivered then taken) | Reship or refund following submission of a signed affidavit, available evidence (surveillance footage if any), and a police report. | Not covered. You may pursue a carrier claim and report the theft to local law enforcement directly. |
Whether or not your order includes ezShip Package Protection, claims for a package marked delivered but not received must be filed within 14 days of the carrier’s delivery scan. Claims filed after this window will be denied.
8. Damaged or Tampered Packages
If your order arrives damaged or shows evidence of tampering during shipping, contact us within 7 days of delivery.
Required evidence (at minimum):
- Photo of the damaged item(s)
- Photo of the shipping label and the exterior of the package showing damage
- Photo of the interior packing materials
Retain the original shipping packaging and damaged contents until the claim is fully resolved. Carriers and we may require physical inspection. Discarding packaging may result in claim denial.
| Scenario | With ezShip | Without ezShip |
|---|---|---|
| Damaged in transit | Reship of the damaged items once evidence is accepted. Refund remedy is available after internal investigation. No carrier-claim dependency. | Resolution depends on the outcome of the carrier’s investigation and carrier claim payment, which typically takes 7-14 business days. |
9. Lost in Transit
A package is considered “lost in transit” when it has received a carrier acceptance scan but has not been marked delivered, and tracking has shown no movement for the period specified below.
| Scenario | With ezShip | Without ezShip |
|---|---|---|
| Lost in transit (no scan progress) | Reship at no additional cost after 5 business days with no movement. Refund available at the customer’s choice as an alternative to reship. | Reship after 10 business days of no tracking movement, or when the carrier officially declares the package lost, whichever comes first. Refund is not available without ezShip except where required by law. |
| Never scanned in (label created, no carrier acceptance scan) | Reship at no additional cost after 3 business days. | Reship at no additional cost after 5 business days. |
If your order is reshipped under either coverage and the original package later arrives, you must notify us within 7 days and either return the late-arriving package using a prepaid label we provide, or pay for the duplicate items at the original order price. See the ezShip Terms for the full duplicate-package policy.
10. Returned to Sender
Packages returned to us by the carrier due to invalid address, refused delivery, unclaimed at a pickup point, or any other “undeliverable” status:
| Scenario | With ezShip | Without ezShip |
|---|---|---|
| Returned to sender | One free reship per rolling 12-month period, provided you supply a corrected verifiable address. If the item is out of stock or won’t survive another trip, we refund instead of reshipping. | Not covered. You pay the cost of reship, or receive a refund of the order subtotal minus original shipping and any applicable fees. |
11. Wrong Address Entered by Customer
An address-entry mistake is your responsibility and is not covered by ezShip.
Before the order has shipped: use the Shipping Issue → Wrong Address / Redirect option in our support flow at ezpeps.com/support to self-correct the address. Pre-ship address corrections are free.
After the order has shipped: use the same support option to request intervention. We may attempt to intercept and reroute the package using the carrier’s package-intercept service for a $25 non-refundable fee. The carrier’s success with the intercept is not guaranteed; the $25 fee is charged whether or not the intercept succeeds. If the intercept fails and the package is returned to us, see Section 10.
12. Refused Delivery
If you refuse delivery for what amounts to buyer’s remorse (rather than a damaged box, a carrier-side fault, or similar), the order is treated as a return under our Return and Refund Policy. Restocking fees and shipping deductions may apply.
13. International Shipping
We do not currently ship internationally. We ship only to addresses within the United States (50 states + Puerto Rico).
Some customers use third-party freight-forwarding services to relay their orders to international addresses. We have no recommendations or partnerships with any forwarder; using one is entirely your responsibility. Once we have delivered to the shipping address you provided (typically a U.S. forwarder address), our responsibility for the package ends.
14. ezShip Package Protection
ezShip Package Protection is an optional add-on offered at checkout. It is priced at checkout based on your order subtotal. It gets you:
- Faster reships for lost or no-scan-progress packages
- Refund eligibility for theft, marked-delivered-not-received, and damaged orders
- A late-delivery shipping refund on expedited services more than 3 business days past the carrier’s estimated delivery date
- Coverage up to $2,000 per claim
Without ezShip, our standard customer-service handling still applies, but on slower timelines and with narrower remedies.
For the full terms, claim windows, documentation requirements, and exclusions, see the ezShip Package Protection Terms & Conditions.
