๐ SHIPPING & DELIVERY
Free U.S. shipping on $200+.
Orders ship in 1โ5 business days (MonโFri).
We rest on weekends + holidays to stay human.

โช๏ธ Shipping Return Policy:
Effective May 14, 2026, our return processing fee has changed to a flat rate of $3.50. For any returns processed prior to this date, the previous 5% fee will apply.
We appreciate your patience and support as we grow. If you have any questions, our team is happy to help!
โ๏ธ Risk of Loss (UCC ยง 2-509 โ in human words):
Once we hand your package to USPS/UPS/FedEx and they scan it in, they are responsible for getting it to you.
Weโre a small brand โ we canโt absorb carrier mistakes the way Amazon can.
If you want coverage until final delivery, please add shipping protection at checkout.
Please note that Sundae School will not be liable for any lost/stolen shipments that do not have a shipping protection.
If you purchased package protection with your order and your package is lost, you can file a claim here.
โฐ FTC SHIPPING TIMING (16 CFR ยง 435)
We legally must ship within the time advertised โ or within 30 days if nothing is stated.
If thereโs a delay, weโll notify you + give you the option to cancel for a full refund.
๐ฆ PACKAGE PROTECTION
Your package protection covers shipping mishaps caused by carriers during transit. It is added to all orders by default, but you may remove it on the cart page before checkout. Please note that once it is removed, we're unable to assist with any shipping-related issues.
Your package protection also includes a free return label, meaning the cost of the return shipping is covered if you choose to return or exchange your order. However, it does not cover restocking fees charged by our third-party warehouse, as these are not related to shipping mishaps, nor overrides final-sale eligibility.
If your package is lost and you purchased Package Protection with your order, please file a lost package claim here.
๐ต๏ธ MISSING OR STOLEN PACKAGES
Once a package is marked โDeliveredโ, our delivery obligation is complete under UCC ยง 2-509 & ยง 2-510.
If it says โDeliveredโ but you canโt find it:
-
Check with neighbors/building staff
-
Contact the carrier to file a claim
-
Weโll support with any proof they need
We cannot refund, replace, or reship delivered packages.
Lost Before Delivery:
If tracking stalls or thereโs no delivery scan, please contact the carrier for a โlost packageโ investigation.
Weโll help with documentation.
Undeliverable Packages:
Wrong address / refused / unclaimed โ you cover re-shipping.
Original shipping isnโt refundable.
๐ธ DAMAGED / DEFECTIVE ITEMS
