Shipping policy
Seattle Coffee Gear strives to provide excellent service and makes its best effort to meet the timing commitments detailed in this policy. Please thoroughly review this so that you know what to expect regarding receipt of your order with us.
Please Note: All shipping carriers are experiencing unprecedented volume that may cause tracking update and final delivery delays. We process orders at our distribution centers around the clock to get your order in transit as fast as possible! However, delivery dates during check out are estimations provided by the shipping carrier and some packages may experience delays while in transit. It may take up to 24 hours for the first tracking scan to appear online though the package has departed our facilities. Once the package has been scanned by the carrier, the estimated delivery will update on the carriers tracking site.
General Terms
We ship to all 50 United States. We are able to ship some items to APO/military addresses but weight restrictions may apply and orders must be placed over the phone and not online. We do not ship outside of the United States.

Once a tracking code has been generated, we will not cancel or make changes to your order.
