Shipping policy
How Does Shipping Work?
Why don't you offer free expedited shipping?
We don’t offer free expedited shipping because slower consolidated shipping practices can help significantly reduce carbon emissions by putting less trucks on the road. By keeping to non-rushed shipping, we’re able to have less of a carbon footprint than many brick and mortar stores! Check out this video from Vox about the environmental cost of free 2-day shipping.
My shipping seems expensive. How can I reduce it?
- For context, many of our Impact Partners don't bake the cost of shipping into the pricing of our products like many other retailers.
- If you buy multiple products from Simple Switch, you’ll be receiving a few different packages, and you may pay additional shipping costs per partner accordingly.
- We don’t warehouse our products, to keep your costs down and reduce the time your products spend on the road, so each product will come directly from our partners to you!
Pro Tip #1: Any purchase over $200 qualifies you for FREE shipping, so bundling your toilet paper, new outfit and a snack can save you a bunch.
Pro Tip #2: If you buy all your products from one partner, you’ll save on shipping and only receive one package!
How long does shipping take?
Our partners generally stick to shipping times between 5-7 days. If you have any questions about your shipping time, email orders@simpleswitch.org
