Where we ship

United States only at launch. That includes all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Alaska and Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and military APO and FPO addresses.

Carrier and handling

We ship USPS Ground Advantage by default. In-stock orders ship within 2 to 5 business days. Pre-order kits ship as the production batch lands, and we email a heads-up before they go out.

Tracking

A tracking link is sent to your email once the kit ships.

Free shipping

Shipping is always free. Never a coupon, never a tier.

Address changes

Email hello@thefamilyword.com within 24 hours of placing the order to change the shipping address. After that the kit may already be in production or in transit.

Undeliverable or returned

If a kit comes back to us as undeliverable, we re-ship after confirming the correct address with you. No extra charge.

Lost packages

If a package is not delivered, we file a USPS trace and ship a replacement if the package is not located within 10 business days.

Expedited shipping

Expedited shipping is not offered at launch. We will add it if demand warrants.

International

International shipping is not yet available. Sign up via contact to be notified when we add a country.
