How and where do you ship?
Deliveries to the 48 contiguous states will be made via FedEx Ground or by common carrier depending on the overall weight of your order. The shipping costs are calculated for you during your online purchase. Please contact customer service for a rate quote if you would like to ship outside the 48 contiguous states, or require expedited shipping.

What is common carrier?
A common carrier is a freight company (we use Yellow Freight) that provides curbside delivery. You may need to assist the delivery driver in unloading larger items. Customers will be contacted via telephone 1-2 days prior to delivery to schedule a delivery appointment. You will need to be present to sign for the item. Inside delivery can be arranged at an additional cost by contacting us at 612.782.1844.

What if something arrives damaged?
Please inspect your purchase immediately upon receipt. We do our best to design and package products so that they arrive in good shape, but sometimes damage does occur. If there is any damage or if any product is defective, contact us within 7 days to arrange for a replacement to be sent to you. If you are present at time of delivery please note any damage when signing for your item. Keep all of the original packing material.

We want you to love your new Blu Dot piece and we are ready to do what it takes to make it right. If you are missing parts we will replace them, if you need instructions or moral support we are here for you.

If you would like to return your purchase you must contact us within 10 day of receiving the item. If the product is damaged or defective we will issue a full refund for the order once we have received the item at our warehouse. The product must be unassembled and in its original packaging. If the return is not due to damage or defect the customer is responsible for the initial shipping charge as well as the shipping cost back to us.
