WHEN WILL MY GIFT ARRIVE?
GIFT SHIP SPEED DEPENDS ON PROCESSING TIME & SHIPPING SPEED YOU’VE SELECTED AT CHECKOUT (VARIOUS).
For example, if you’ve selected two day shipping, that is transit time, not processing time included.
Processing time includes handwriting your card (if applicable) and hand packing your box in our warehouse. You will receive a tracking number via email once your order has been processed and shipped. We are currently processing all orders within 2-4 business days and we ship boxes out on Mondays- Fridays. During high seasonal moments, processing time can take up to 5 business days.
Please note that currently PO and APO addresses must ship via Standard Shipping (with UPS Surepost). What is SurePost Shipping? SurePost is a service provided by UPS in which packages are transported to the destination city and handed off to USPS for final delivery. Once the package is transferred to USPS, we cannot provide updates or make changes to the package delivery.
All estimated shipping mentions on site and via email are for the mainland US; all island and international shipping options and pricing will come up in checkout when you put in your shipping address as they will vary depending on location. Timing is longer for those areas.
How do I track my package?
For UPS shipments, you may track your package at this website or call the UPS customer service phone number at 1-800-742-5877, and provide the tracking number sent to you via email.
I need to change my order's shipping address, and it hasn't shipped yet.
For address changes, please contact orders@happyboxstore.com immediately with your order number (HB-XXXXXX) and the changes needed. If it is something we can do and the order is not yet processed or shipped, we will accommodate as best we can. If not, we may not be able to accommodate this change.
I need to change my order's shipping address, and it has already shipped.
If your order has already shipped, we may be able to work with UPS to intercept your package while in transit, and change the shipping address for a fee of $25. Note: this is not always possible and is dependent on UPS to say if it is or is not possible, but we will try our best! For address changes, please reach out to orders@happyboxstore.com. Once confirmed with UPS that this change is possible, we will invoice you for the fee ($25) and will make necessary updates and/or changes after the invoice is successfully paid.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, but prices and timeline of arrival greatly vary based on location. Please look up and be aware of of the laws and tariffs within each country you are shipping to. We recommend you track your order and provide all information to the recipient as they may need to pick up the package and pay tariffs on the goods (again, deemed by each country and unable to be paid for in advance from the USA).
Please make sure to include your recipient's phone number and email address at checkout to ensure UPS will be able to contact the recipient directly for any shipping related questions or issues.
Do you ship orders to the UK & EU? If so, how will orders be shipped?
Yes, we ship to the UK & EU. To get your order to you, we've partnered with Passport Shipping and they will be the Seller for all orders to the UK for orders under £135 and orders to the EU for orders €150 and Under.
How do I ship multiple gifts to different addresses in one checkout?
Step 1: Add as many boxes to your cart that you like (curated or build your own!)
Step 2: In your side cart, select the “shipping to multiple locations” button
Step 3: Specify how many unique addresses you are shipping to for each box in your cart (you can even update quantities here if you need to!)
Step 4: Add the individual addresses that you would like to ship to for each box
Step 5: Press the “proceed to checkout” button
Step 6: You will be taken to the checkout screen, and your boxes will all ship to the respective addresses via UPS Ground
Buying in very high quantities (20+)? We can help! Email corporate@happyboxstore.com to place larger bulk orders.
What is Hold for Christmas shipping and when will my order ship if I select this shipping service?
If you select "Hold for Christmas" as your shipping option, your order will ship from our NJ warehouse via UPS Ground between on 12/14/22-12/16/22, so that your recipient will receive their Happy Box estimated prior to Christmas Day. To make adjustments to your shipping service, email orders@happyboxstore.com.
ORDER FULFILLMENT
Does shipping time include processing time?
Shipping time does not include processing time. Each order is 100% unique and requires some time to pack and put it together. Processing time is the time in which our team is fulfilling your order and preparing it to be shipped. Once shipped, you will receive a confirmation with tracking information. All processing, shipping, and arrival times are estimates and are subject to change. Orders are processed and shipped on business days, Mon-Fri from 9am-5pm EST, on non-bank holidays. All orders are processed within 1-4 business days.
Can I have a gift arrive on an exact date?
Not at this time! Please note, all shipping times are ranges, estimates, and are approximate and NOT guaranteed. Note: We do not ship on weekends or bank holidays.
ORDER ISSUES
What happens if my box gets returned to you due to wrong address input?
Once we receive the box back at our warehouse, we will reach out to you to provide two options:
- We will refund the box upon receipt minus a $10 restocking fee for labor and to discard the custom made card and the box as well as any perishable items.
- We will reship the box to a NEW address for a $15 reshipping fee.
My package shows as “delivered” but I can’t find it. What should I do?
We recommend that you check all exterior doors and any locations where the package could be placed, including the porch, back patio, garage, and any area out of potential weather hazards. You should also check with anyone who might have retrieved the package.
Please confirm that the shipping address provided is a correct and valid address.
If you’re still unable to locate the package, contact us at orders@happyboxstore.com for further assistance. Please have your order number ready.

I have a question/issue with my order.

How will my recipient know they got a gift?
Recipients of Gift of Choice gifts will be notified via email 4 times over 30 days, at which point their gift will expire.
My recipient is not getting the gift notifications, what can I do?
Double check your order confirmation to ensure the email address you’ve input is correct, and email orders@happyboxstore.com if it is not. If it is correct, please ask your recipient to check their promotions and spam filters as the notifications may be stuck there. Note: we cannot control this as every mail service is different.

The gift purchaser has 60 days from expiration date of the gift to convert the Gift of Choice credit to happyboxstore.com store credit. To do so, email orders@happyboxstore.com with your order number. After that 60 days, the gift credit will be considered abandoned and no longer able to be redeemed.
