Shipping policy

<p><strong>Shipping Policy</strong></p>
<p><em>Last updated: September 26, 2026</em></p>
<p><strong>The short version:</strong> most orders leave our warehouse within 2 business days and arrive 3–5 business days later — so figure about a week from click to climbing. These are good-faith estimates, not guarantees; the full details are below.</p>
<p><strong>Where we ship</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Continental US (including Washington, DC):</strong> shipping is included in the price.</li>
<li><strong>Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Guam:</strong> shipping costs extra. Email info@brainrichkids.com before ordering and we'll quote it for you.</li>
<li><strong>APO and DPO addresses:</strong> shipping may cost extra, because rates change. Email us and we'll confirm the cost before you order.</li>
<li><strong>Canada:</strong> shipping is charged separately, because rates vary a lot by area. Email us for a quote.</li>
<li><strong>Other countries:</strong> we can ship almost anywhere. Email info@brainrichkids.com and we'll put together a quote by hand. Customs duties or import taxes may apply outside the US.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>How your order ships</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Processing:</strong> orders typically ship within 2 business days of purchase (business days are Monday–Friday, excluding holidays).</li>
<li><strong>Delivery:</strong> once shipped, delivery typically takes 3–5 business days, depending on your distance from the shipping warehouse.</li>
<li><strong>Tracking:</strong> you'll receive tracking by email the moment your order ships — for every box.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Your gym arrives in multiple boxes</strong></p>
<p>Play gyms ship as several labeled boxes, and carriers sometimes deliver them a day or two apart. A partial delivery is normal — check your tracking before worrying, and give the rest of the boxes a day to catch up. Every box is labeled so you'll know when the set is complete.</p>
<p><strong>Two warehouses — US and Canada</strong></p>
<p>We fulfill orders from warehouses in the United States and Canada. To get your order to you as quickly as possible, it may ship from either location — and occasionally part of an order ships from one warehouse and part from the other. When an item crosses the border to reach you, it can add a few days for carrier and customs processing. If any part of your order is taking meaningfully longer, we'll be watching the tracking too — and you're always welcome to email us for a status check.</p>
<p><strong>Holidays and things beyond our control</strong></p>
<p>During holiday season, carrier volumes spike and transit times stretch — if your order is a gift with a hard date, order early and tell us; we'll do what we can to help it along. Once a shipment is with FedEx, UPS, or another carrier, delivery timing is subject to their networks — weather, peak-season backlogs, labor disruptions, and the other realities of moving heavy boxes across a continent. We'll always help you chase a shipment, but we can't control the truck.</p>
<p><strong>Damaged or missing boxes</strong></p>
<p>If a box arrives visibly damaged or your shipment seems incomplete after all tracking numbers show delivered, email info@brainrichkids.com with your order number and photos. Missing or damaged parts are replaced quickly at no cost to you — this is exactly the kind of problem our support exists for.</p>
<p><strong>Wrong address?</strong></p>
<p>If you notice an address error after ordering, email us as soon as possible — we can usually fix it before the order ships. Once it's with the carrier, changes get harder, so please double-check at checkout.</p>
