Shipping policy

Last updated: May 23, 2026

At Smokeforges, our goal is to keep the ordering and delivery process clear, predictable, and transparent. This Shipping Policy explains how orders are processed, shipped, and delivered.


Shipping Costs & Sales Tax

Free standard shipping is available for eligible orders within the contiguous United States.

Sales tax is collected where required under applicable law. Applicable tax amounts are calculated and displayed during checkout before order confirmation.


Shipping Locations

Smokeforges currently ships to addresses within the lower 48 United States only.

We do not currently ship internationally, to Alaska, Hawaii, U.S. territories, APO/FPO addresses, or P.O. Boxes.

Orders placed with unsupported address types may be delayed or canceled if an alternative address cannot be provided.

Custom finishes, specialty materials, and non-standard configurations may require additional production time.

Other Brands

Lead times for other brands are listed on individual product pages. If you have questions about a specific product, contact us before placing your order.

Delivery estimates are provided for reference and may vary depending on inventory availability, carrier operations, weather conditions, freight scheduling, and manufacturer production timelines.

Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding major U.S. holidays.


Order Cutoff & Handling Time

Orders placed before 1:00 PM PST on business days are typically submitted for processing the same business day.

Orders placed after cutoff time, on weekends, or on holidays are processed on the next business day.

Standard handling time is 1–3 business days unless otherwise stated on the product page.

Order Modification Window

Address changes, item changes, or cancellation requests should be submitted as soon as possible after placing an order. Once an order enters fulfillment or shipment processing, modifications may no longer be possible.


Order Confirmation

After placing your order, you will receive an order confirmation email confirming that your order has been received and payment authorization has been completed.

If inventory issues or backorders affect your order, we will contact you with updated information and available options.


Order Shipment

If your item is in stock and payment is approved, orders typically ship within 1–3 business days unless a different lead time is listed on the product page.

Tracking information is sent by email after shipment.

Smokeforges ships using carriers including:

  • UPS Ground
  • FedEx Ground
  • Freight (LTL) carriers for large items

Carrier Delays

Carrier transit times may occasionally be affected by weather conditions, carrier service interruptions, high shipping volume periods, or other operational factors outside our control.

If your shipment experiences a significant delay, contact us at info@smokeforges.com and our team will assist where possible.


Freight (LTL) Deliveries

Large or heavy items may ship via freight delivery service.

When your shipment reaches the local delivery terminal, the freight carrier will contact you to schedule a delivery appointment.

  • Appointments are generally scheduled Monday–Friday
  • Delivery windows are typically morning or afternoon time blocks
  • Specific delivery times may not be available

Freight deliveries are generally curbside or driveway delivery only.

A valid phone number is required at checkout. An adult must be available during the scheduled delivery appointment.

Carrier fees related to missed appointments, re-delivery attempts, storage, or address corrections may be the responsibility of the customer.


Backorders

If an item becomes unavailable after your order is placed, we will notify you by email with updated availability information and available options.

You may choose to:

  • Keep the order active
  • Select an alternative product
  • Cancel the order before shipment

Tracking Your Order

Tracking information is sent by email once your order ships.


Lost or Stolen Packages

If tracking information shows your order as delivered but you cannot locate the package:

  1. Check around the delivery location and with household members or neighbors
  2. Allow additional time in case the carrier marked the package delivered early
  3. Contact the shipping carrier directly using your tracking number
  4. Contact Smokeforges at info@smokeforges.com if assistance is needed

Claims for missing packages should be submitted promptly after delivery confirmation.


Damages

Please inspect your shipment upon delivery.

If visible damage is present:

  • Note the damage with the delivery carrier before signing
  • Take clear photos of the packaging and product
  • Contact info@smokeforges.com within 48 hours of delivery

Retain all packaging materials until the issue has been reviewed.


Delivery Exceptions & Refused Shipments

If severe shipping damage is visible during delivery, you may refuse the shipment.

Please photograph the shipment and notify Smokeforges promptly with your order number and supporting photos.


Returned to Sender

If a shipment is returned due to an incorrect address, failed delivery attempts, or refusal of delivery unrelated to shipping damage, additional shipping charges or restocking fees may apply.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate shipping information during checkout.


Cancellations & Refunds

  • Orders canceled within 48 hours and before shipment are generally eligible for a full refund
  • Orders canceled after processing may be subject to administrative or restocking fees
  • Orders canceled after shipment are subject to the terms outlined in our Return & Refund Policy
