Shipping policy
At My Loveable Little Monster, every order is printed, packed, and shipped on demand by our fulfillment partner, Printful. Because items are made specifically for you, please review the timelines below before ordering.
Order Processing (Fulfillment) Time
Once you place an order, it goes straight to our fulfillment center. Production/fulfillment typically takes 2–5 business days before your order ships. During high-demand periods (holidays, promotions) this may take slightly longer — we'll note any delays on our homepage or in your order confirmation email.
Note: embroidered items and certain specialty products may require additional production time.
Shipping Times (After Fulfillment)
Once your order ships, transit time depends on your location:
| Destination | Standard Transit Time | Total Estimated Delivery (Fulfillment + Transit) |
|---|---|---|
| United States | 3–8 business days | 5–13 business days |
| International | 5–20 business days (varies by region) | 8–25 business days |
Express shipping (US only): Reduces transit to 1–3 business days after fulfillment. Note that fulfillment time (2–5 days) still applies — express speeds up the shipping leg, not production. Express requires a valid US residential/commercial address; PO boxes and APO/FPO addresses are not eligible.
These are estimates, not guarantees. Actual delivery times can vary due to carrier delays, customs processing, weather, or high order volume.
Shipping Rates
Shipping is calculated at checkout based on product type, quantity, and destination. Rates are generally flat within a shipping region and include a lower per-item rate for additional items in the same order.
Multiple Items in One Order
If your order contains items fulfilled at different facilities or with different production times, they may ship separately and arrive on different days. You'll receive a separate tracking number for each shipment — no extra shipping charge applies for split shipments caused by our fulfillment process.
International Orders, Customs & Duties
International shipments may be subject to import taxes, customs duties, and fees imposed by the destination country. These are the responsibility of the customer and are not included in the item price or shipping cost. Customs policies vary widely — please check with your local customs office for more information before ordering.
Tracking
You'll receive a shipping confirmation email with tracking information as soon as your order ships. Please allow up to 24–48 hours for tracking data to update after you receive this email.
