Shipping and Returns

Fast shipping and Easy Returns

Farmer's Hobby will handle your shipping from the minute you place your order until you receive it, we are committed to sending your order as fast as we can. 

Before Placing an order:

• When placing the order please make sure you have easy access to an 18-wheeler truck (no narrow roads or hanging wires).
• The 18-wheeler truck is driven by one person, we ask that you are present to provide help. The truck usually comes with a lift gate and the delivery guy will do most of the work, however, we ask that you have a couple of people there to help unload and sign off on the delivery. 
• The delivery company provides curbside delivery. The delivery person cannot lift the greenhouse to a garage or another location.  For large greenhouses, we recommend renting a forklift to help carry the greenhouse to the specific location of your choice. 
• Once the greenhouse is shipped, the freight company will call you to provide a timeframe for the delivery. Please make sure you or an authorized person is present during the delivery.

Shipping:

• ✔   We offer free Standard Shipping in the Continental USA.*
• ✔   After placing the order, you will be receiving a confirmation email. If the item is in stock, the manufacturer will ship the item within 5 business days. You will also be receiving a tracking number once the item ships (24 hours from the shipping date).  if the item is not in stock, the supplier will let us know about the availability time frame necessary for the shipment to take place and we will update you.
• ✔   If you haven't heard from us 5 business days from placing the order, please contact us.
• ✔  If you live in a rural area that has narrow roads, please understand that the greenhouses are not delivered in the regular UPS/FedEx delivery trucks, they are actually delivered in regular PUP or 18-wheelers (with 9-feet high boxes on their trailers) – these trucks are about 13 feet high – which is much higher and wider than a regular delivery truck. We will need to find a better way to get the greenhouse to you, however, please inform us if you live in an area with difficult roads so we can find a better solution for the delivery.

We ship everything for free* in the continental United States! However, in the rare occasion where your delivery location has limited access (narrow roads, islands, low-hanging wires, major metropolitan areas, etc...) the freight could be more expensive and might incur additional fees. In that case, we will contact you to confirm the extra cost before we process your order.

✔  Due to COVID-19, some items might need to be pre-ordered due to high demand. We will also inform you if there are any unforeseen changes to the date of delivery. 

Upon receiving your delivery:

 ✔   We advise that you inspect the boxes upon receipt of your shipment. Please check for any missing boxes or packages. Also, inspect for any damages of the packages and notate on the bill of lading before signing for your shipment. If you notice a discrepancy between what you ordered and what was delivered, please notate the number of missing boxes on your copy and the drivers in case of damage. Also, make sure the driver signs both copies. In case of damage, please take pictures of the unopened boxes in order for us to determine the next step. Make sure you write the word "DAMAGED" on both your receipt and the driver's and get him to sign both copies. We ask that you let us know about any possible damage no more than 4 days after the date it was delivered. If you are not responsible for the damage, the shipper will be charged to fix the delivered product.

• ✔ If the order is damaged, we will do everything we can to send replacement parts from the manufacturer or redeliver if necessary. 
• ✔  For EXACO products (Riga, Janssens) The Large Greenhouses are delivered by a common carrier (truck with liftgate) but curbside only.  This means that if you require delivery of the large greenhouse to the door, this will cost extra. This is the standard for the industry and is a requirement from the manufacturer. All online merchants are required to abide by these rules (even if they don't disclose it which most won't).   Also, a customer or a representative is asked to be present to receive the delivery and to provide help unloading it (especially large greenhouses).
