You can expect to receive your SARDINE shades within a week of ordering on average, but it may be faster depending on your location. Orders leave our warehouse within 1-2 business days, and will be shipped via USPS First Class Mail which takes approximately 1-3 business days to arrive. If you’re ordering more than three frames, or are based in Canada, we will use the most economical and efficient method of shipping to you.
At times, carriers may experience delays based on things like weather, holidays, etc. and we’ll do our best to communicate these to you as soon as we’re aware of them -
