how much is the shipping charge?

We use flat rate shipping, so your cost is the same no matter how many items you order. You know exactly what it will be - there are no shipping cost surprises at Slumber Sounds. 

Simply choose one of these three ship methods when you checkout . . .

    1. U. S. Post Office First class Mail     (5-7 business days)       $4.95   

    2. U. S. Post Office Priority Mail         (2-3 business days)       $6.95 

    3. United Parcel Service Ground         (2-7 business  days)    $12.00 

U. S. Post Office options apply only to U. S. addresses.

UPS ground option applies only to continental US addresses. If you live in Alaska, Hawaii, or Puerto Rico, we will send you a UPS 2nd day air shipping estimate for your approval before we ship your order or charge your credit card.

We also ship internationally; if you're outside the U. S., see your shipping information at the bottom of this page.

In our experience, USPS Priority Mail is your speediest, "best value" shipping option.

when will my order be shipped?

If you order by 3 PM Pacific Time on a weekday, we'll ship to you that same day. Otherwise, we aim to ship all items on the next business day. 

95% or more of the time, we meet these deadlines.

when will my merchandise be delivered?

The Post Office estimates 5-7 business day delivery time anywhere in the United States for First Class Mail, and 2-3 business days for Priority Mail. So, if you need the products ASAP, choose Priority Mail.

As to UPS, We ship from central Washington. So your UPS package should arrive within 2-7 days, depending on your distance from the Pacific Northwest.

how do I order online?

For each product you like, click the "Add to Cart" button. This keeps your choices in a special place (called a Shopping Cart) while you're shopping. 

Placing items in the cart isn't the same as purchasing; NOTHING IS BILLED TO YOUR ACCOUNT when you add or remove items from the cart.

To see your choices, click "View Cart" button at top of any page. You can add or remove items from your cart at any time. 

When you're done shopping, click "View Cart" button, then click the "Check Out" button at bottom. Fill out your information, including any gift wrapping instructions. The whole process takes only a few minutes.

what is your return policy?

Purchases may be returned within 14 days of the date you received your order. All returned items must be in unused condition in the original unopened packaging (excluding gift packaging) for a complete refund, excluding shipping charges.

Merchandise must be returned within 14 days of your delivery date. Beyond that point, we cannot accept returns. Slumber Sounds is not responsible for shipping charges on returned items - such shipping charges are your responsibility.

is it really safe to order over the internet?

We share your concern about security: if ordering systems aren't secure then Slumber Sounds (or any internet business) simply can't function. We protect you with industry standard 128-bit SSL encryption, using the secure servers at Yahoo!

Encryption is used whenever you send us your information. Look at the bottom of your screen as you type - you'll see an unbroken key symbol (or a lock symbol, depending on your browser). This means your data is being automatically encrypted as it's sent. The technology works - we've never had a case of stolen information. Not one.

We do not charge your card until your order is shipped. All credit card orders are subject to approval and verification by the issuing bank.

do I have to pay sales tax?

We charge 8% sales tax on all orders that originate in the state of Washington. Otherwise, you pay no sales tax.

how do I order products?

We have two ways to order.

1.  For fastest service, order by telephone. Have your Visa or Master Card card handy, then call us toll-free at 1-866-575-BABY. We're around from 9 AM to 4 PM, west coast time.

2.  You also can order using our Yahoo store. Look for the "Add to Cart" button on a product page; click it to send your order via secure servers.

is gift wrapping available?

Yes, and it's completely free.

If you're going to a baby shower, or want a nifty present for your new grandchild, here's the hassle-free way to personalize your gift.

As you type your information on the order screens, you'll be able to enter a personalized message. We'll handwrite the message on a nice card, enclose it with your order, and gift wrap everything with a baby-themed paper. Of course, there will be no receipt in the package; just the products and your card.
