Shop Policies

This page outlines how orders are processed, shipped, and handled so you know exactly what to expect when ordering from Gleaux Shop. If you have additional questions, our FAQ page may be helpful.


Order Processing Time

All orders are processed within 1–2 business days. Business days do not include weekends or holidays.

Once your order ships, you will receive a confirmation email with tracking information. Please note that processing time is separate from shipping transit time.


Shipping

All orders are shipped from Kennewick, Washington (99336) using USPS, UPS, or FedEx.

U.S. Shipping Rates

Shipping rates are based on order total and package weight:

  • Free standard or ground shipping on U.S. orders over $75
  • Flat rate $7.99 for orders $75 and under with a total package weight of 1 lb or less
  • Flat rate $9.99 for orders $75 and under with a total package weight over 1 lb

Shipping eligibility and rates are automatically calculated at checkout.

Shipping transit times vary by carrier and destination. Gleaux Shop is not responsible for shipping delays once a package has been transferred to the carrier.

We package orders using eco-conscious materials whenever possible, including biodegradable packing peanuts, recyclable paper, and recycled void fill. Packaging choices may vary based on product size, protective needs, and seasonal shipping conditions.

Heat & Seasonal Shipping

Candles and wax-based products may be sensitive to high temperatures during transit. During warmer months, we make every effort to ship orders at the beginning of the week to help minimize prolonged transit times and reduce the risk of heat exposure during delivery.

Despite these precautions, Gleaux Shop is not responsible for melting or heat-related issues once an order has been delivered, including packages left unattended after delivery, and cannot guarantee carrier handling conditions during transit.

Address Accuracy

Customers are responsible for providing an accurate shipping address at checkout. Orders returned due to an incorrect or incomplete address may require an additional shipping fee to be resent.

At this time, we ship within the contiguous United States only.


Local Delivery

Local delivery is available to customers located within 10 miles of Kennewick, Washington (99336).
