SHIPPING
Our shipping options are designed to be easy, reasonable, and free with minimum purchase. We currently offer UPS or FedEx shipping as preferred carriers, and restrict delivery to outside of United States. Let us know if additional shipping options are important to you, and we'll add services as demand warrants
Orders over $100 ship free via standard UPS or FedEx ground!
(Some products cannot be expedited, where noted on product information page)
SERVICE GUIDELINES
Deliveries do not occur on Saturdays, Sundays or Holidays. Although a package may be ready for delivery in the morning, orders do not enter 'shipped' status until preferred carrier physically picks the package(s) up from our warehouse.
ORDER CHANGES
Changes to orders cannot be made after 1:00pm PST on business days, as packages may already be en route to their destination(s).
CANCELLING AN ORDER
At Modern Baby Care we take pride in processing your orders quickly. Therefore, it may not always be possible to cancel your order once it has been placed. Orders that ship directly from the Modern Baby Care warehouse must be cancelled by 1:00pm PST on their scheduled ship date. Furniture and other items that require additional lead times may take us up to 72 hours to determine if we are able to grant your request. If we are unable to cancel the order prior to it entering the shipping process, you would need to return the item subject to our return policies below.
EXPEDITED SHIPPING OPTIONS
Overnight and second day shipping options are subject to preferred carrier pickup cycles and business day limitations. For example, if you place an order on Wednesday evening and specify second day shipping, it will not arrive at its destination until the following Monday. In this example, the next available preferred carrier departure is on Thursday evening, and the second day falls on a weekend. The following Monday is the second day in preferred carrier service terms.
ALASKA, HAWAII, AND PO BOXES
Non-oversized shipments with Alaska, Hawaii, and P.O. Box destinations incur the standard preferred carrier ground shipping charge but ship via U.S. Postal Service.
RETURNS
We want you to be delighted with your ModernBabyCare.com purchase. Most purchases can be returned within 15 days for a refund. Just contact us for an RMA number prior to return shipping. Modern Baby Care will cover the cost of return shipping for defective items, and will refund 100% of the purchase price.
Returned items not meeting these criteria are subject to a 20% restocking fee. You will be responsible for shipping costs (each way) on unwanted items. Certain products such as eating utensils, bottle feeding items / accessories, breast pumps, blankets, mattresses, diapers, potty seats, bath and fabric items and personal care items cannot be resold for hygienic reasons and are therefore non-refundable. Items that are returned with missing pieces and/or parts will not be refunded and will be shipped back to the customer at customer's expense.
You must notify us of damaged / defective products within 5 business days from the date of delivery. In the event that a product is defective or damaged in shipping, ModernBabyCare.com will provide an equivalent replacement item. In some cases, the manufacturer may opt to replace a defective part rather than replacing an entire item. If a replacement is not available, ModernBabyCare.com will issue a full refund including inbound and outbound shipping charges.
The current flat rate shipping charge will be withheld from a return credit if the original order met the free shipping threshold, but exclusion of the returned item would have caused the order total to fall below the free shipping threshold.
Please send us an e-mail at reachus@modernbabycare.com requesting an RMA number in the event of a return or if you have any questions about our return policy.
FURNITURE AND SPECIAL ORDER POLICY
At Modern Baby Care, we know building the perfect nursery is important. We've put the following policies in effect to ensure continued good relations with our trusted manufacturers who supply us with one-of-a-kind specialty items.
Most furniture and other special order items are shipped via Fed Ex, UPS small package or Curbside Freight.
RETURNS; FURNITURE AND SPECIAL ORDER ITEMS
In the event that you need to return furniture or special order items, you will be responsible for all shipping costs. This includes the cost to return the item to us, as well as the cost of shipping the item to you.
Once the furniture item has been shipped from the manufacturer, even if you have not received it, you will be responsible for round-trip freight costs, should you decide to refuse delivery.
We do our best to provide accurate lead times for furniture and special order items. Shipping time frames reflected in product descriptions are based on estimates from our suppliers. In the event of a shipping delay, Modern Baby Care will notify you promptly. However, we cannot be held responsible for shipping delays beyond estimated delivery times.
Happy shopping :)
