At Kitchen Forge, we want you to receive your order promptly and in perfect condition. This policy outlines our shipping charges, processing timelines, delivery expectations, and how we handle the occasional issue that may arise in transit.
Shipping Charges & Delivery Estimates
We offer free standard shipping on all orders over $45.00. For orders below that threshold, a flat standard shipping rate of $8.00 applies.
Standard Shipping (Orders under $45): $8.00 flat rate
Standard Shipping (Orders $45 and over): Free
All orders are processed and shipped from our warehouse within 1–3 business days after order confirmation. Once your order leaves our facility, standard delivery typically takes 5–7 business days within the contiguous United States. Delivery times may vary depending on your location and carrier capacity.
Please note that delivery estimates are calculated from the ship date, not the order date, and do not include weekends or holidays. During peak seasons or promotional events, you may experience slightly longer processing times — we’ll keep you informed if that occurs.
Order Confirmation & Address Accuracy
When you place an order, you’ll receive an order confirmation email at the address you provided. This email contains your order number, a summary of the items purchased, and your shipping details.
It’s important to review your delivery address carefully at checkout. We rely on the exact information you enter to ensure your package arrives at the right place. If you notice an error in your address after placing the order, contact our shipping support team as soon as possible at shipping@kitchenforge.us. If your order hasn’t shipped yet, we can coordinate an address correction with our warehouse. Once a package is in transit, we may be able to submit a correction request to the carrier, but we cannot guarantee the change will take effect.
Tracking Your Order
As soon as your order ships, we’ll send you a shipping confirmation email with a tracking number and a link to the carrier’s tracking portal. You can follow your package’s journey through every scan event — from pickup to final delivery.
If you don’t receive a shipping confirmation within 4 business days of placing your order, please check your spam folder first, then reach out to our main support team at support@kitchenforge.us for assistance.
Split Shipments
Orders containing multiple items may, in some cases, be split into two or more packages. If that happens, each shipment is assigned its own tracking number, and we’ll notify you via email. Split shipments occur when items are stored in different warehouse zones or when certain products require separate handling. You will never be charged additional shipping fees for split shipments.
Carrier Events & Delivery Delays
Once your package is with the carrier, its progress is subject to conditions beyond our control. Weather events, natural disasters, carrier volume spikes, or logistical disruptions may delay delivery. We monitor carrier updates closely, and if we become aware of a significant delay affecting your area, we’ll inform you as soon as possible.
If you notice a carrier scan that suggests an issue — such as “delayed,” “exception,” or no scan for several days — contact our shipping support team. We’ll investigate on your behalf and contact the carrier directly.
Failed Delivery, Missing, or Damaged Packages
If a carrier attempts delivery and cannot complete it, they typically leave a notice. Failed delivery can occur for several reasons: the address was incorrect, no one was available to receive the package, or access to the delivery location was restricted. If you miss a delivery attempt, follow the carrier’s instructions on the notice to reschedule or arrange pickup.
For missing packages:
Missing package that shows delivered: Check with household members, neighbors, or your building’s mailroom before contacting us. If you still can’t locate it, contact our shipping support within 10 days so we can start a carrier investigation.
Missing package that never arrives: If your tracking shows no movement for 5 or more business days, or if the carrier reports the package as lost, contact us right away.
For damaged packages:
Take photos of the package and its contents before removing items.
Contact our shipping support team at shipping@kitchenforge.us with your order number and photos.
We’ll file a claim with the carrier and, once verified, initiate a replacement or refund according to this shipping policy.
Restrictions & Special Address Types
We ship to physical addresses within the United States, including PO boxes and APO/FPO/DPO addresses via USPS where applicable. Some carriers may impose specific restrictions on certain address types; we’ll verify compatibility at the time of fulfillment and notify you if any issue arises.
How to Get Shipping Support
For any shipping-related questions — tracking inquiries, address changes, delivery issues, damage claims, or shipment exceptions — our dedicated shipping support team is ready to help.
When contacting us about a shipping issue, please include:
Your order number and shipping confirmation number

Our Handling Process
Our shipping specialists verify the order’s tracking details and carrier, then take the appropriate next step. Depending on the issue, they may:
Contact the carrier on your behalf to file a claim
Coordinate an address correction with our warehouse if the order hasn’t shipped yet
Keep you informed of progress and expected resolution timelines
Initiate a replacement or refund if a package is lost or damaged beyond recovery
You can expect a first response from our shipping team within 1 business day. If a shipping issue cannot be resolved with the carrier, the warehouse manager becomes involved, and we provide a final resolution within 2 business days.
