Order Processing, Shipping & Handling Policies

BluebirdLanding.com ships within the United States of America with limited shipping to Canada addresses. Canada customers have the option of having us ship your order directly to the shipping address provided via International Priority Mail, or using Bongo International package forwarding service. Shipments to Canada locations will incur actual shipping and handling rates, in addition to customs fees and surcharges.

Most orders are processed immediately and shipped within 2-5 business days from BluebirdLanding.com warehouse located in Missouri. Some items are shipped directly from the distributor or manufacturer and may require up to 14 business days or longer to ship. Orders that have backordered items may require more time to ship. Also, orders for some handcrafted made to order items may require additional time to ship (up to 2 weeks or longer depending on the item). International orders are processed immediately and require up to 14 days to ship. Note: Due to the Covid-19 pandemic order shipments may be delayed.

Orders received before 12:00 pm CST are processed the same day. Orders received after 12:00 pm CST are processed the next business day. We do not ship on Saturday, Sunday or holidays. If any items are on backorder, the order will be shipped when backordered items are available.

Please note that all items ordered may not necessarily be shipped together. Some orders may arrive as split shipments from more than one warehouse location. Packages may be shipped and arrive on different days. We will notify you by e-mail, so that you are aware of any split shipments, if they occur.

Ground shipments to Alaska, Hawaii and Canada - The exact cost of shipping based on package size, weight and destination zone will be determined before it is added to your order. After we receive your order, we will calculate the additional shipping costs, and contact you by e-mail to confirm these costs prior to shipment. If you have questions regarding shipping to your area, please contact usNote: Live Insects/Worms and some organic based products cannot be shipped to Hawaii or Canada due to agricultural restrictions.

Oversized Shipments/Additional Shipping Required - Extra shipping charges will be added to the invoice after checkout if any of the following apply: 1) items and/or packages are dimensionally oversized, this includes weight and measurement of items and/or packages; 2) when order shipment requires multiple packages; 3) shipping to Alaska, Hawaii or International locations; 4) Live Insects/Worms - additional shipping charges will apply when ordering multiple insect/worm boxes or packs, or when combining other items from our store on the same order. Shipping charges will also be added to invoice if customer selects incorrect shipping method at checkout; for example, selecting 'Ground Service' when live product item ordered requires 'Overnight Service' shipping method. Customer will be notified by email when additional shipping charges are required or added to their invoice. If additional shipping charges cannot be added to the invoice because of customer's credit card declining the transaction, or, if customer does not submit payment requests through PayPal, we reserve the right to cancel the order and issue a refund less cancellation and transaction processing.

Items Temporarily Out of Stock - Items temporarily out of stock will be placed on backorder, if they are expected to arrive in our warehouse up to sixteen weeks from the time the order is submitted (see order cancellation and backorder policy details below). Customers may be notified if an item is temporarily out of stock. If customer does not respond back to email notifications requiring reply, we reserve the right to substitute a similar item in our store, issue a store credit, or cancel the order and issue a refund.

Discontinued Items and Product Changes If a manufacturer discontinues a product SKU or model number, replaces it with a new item that is the same or closely similar, changes the product packaging, makes slight changes to product content, or improvements to product design, we reserve the right to use our discretion and make a substitution on the order.  If a similar or like item is not available to substitute, the order may be cancelled and refunded in full. If customer is not satisfied with the item received, they may request return authorization within 10 days of delivery (See store Return Policy). Restocking fee may apply and customer is responsible for return shipping cost.  

Order Cancellation – All orders submitted in our online store are immediately processed for shipment. Any customer wanting to cancel or make changes to an order must contact us immediately.

No cash refunds can be issued after 6 months of original order date. Customers requesting cancellation of orders or backordered items after 6 months of order date will be issued a store credit coupon for the full value of the order total or item. The store credit coupon is used at checkout on a new order, and may be applied to any merchandise offered in our online store. When using the store credit coupon, the merchandise total must be equal to or greater than the coupon value. Actual shipping and handling rates are determined after an order is processed for shipment.

Backorders - If an item is temporarily out of stock and expected to arrive at our warehouse within a specified timeframe, we reserve the right to place the item on backorder and ship as soon as the item arrives. Customers may also request to substitute another item offered in our online store, if available. Customers may be notified by email of their order status when backorders are necessary, or they are welcome to inquire as to the status of their order by email. Backorders may occur at any time especially during busy seasonal times of the year, if an item is temporarily sold out or new, or if there is a supply chain disruption causing a delay. When an item is placed on backorder, customers are given the choice to continue waiting for the item, substitute another item offered in our store, or cancel the order and be refunded less transaction processing. 

If an item is both out of stock and discontinued by the manufacturer, we reserve the right to substitute a similar or like item in our store. If no such item is available customers may be notified of the availability status by email and given the choice to cancel the order, or substitute another item offered in our store. If a customer does not respond back to email notifications regarding their order, we may substitute a similar item in our store, or cancel the order and issue a store credit or refund.
