WELCOME TO THE CREW! 100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEED

Shipping & Return Policy

Plant orders are shipped within 2-3 business days via USPS. We ship our plants Monday through Friday, all twelve months of the year! If you need your order urgently, please email us at customercare@thornandraised.com so we can upgrade your shipping (additional cost applied).  

ORDER PROCESSING

Shipping will be via United States Postal Service within the United States and its outlying territories ONLY. 

We pack our products by hand and take great care to ensure that they arrive at their final destination safely. Your plant will be meticulously wrapped in tissue paper and shipped in a sturdy box. Plants are shipped in their original plastic pot with soil to ensure their safety. Houseplants ship in their original nursery pots and are individually wrapped for safe arrival.

When opening your package, some soil may be loose in the box. Upon receiving your plants, make sure to remove them from their packaging immediately, and follow the care instructions provided.  

SHIPPING COST:

Orders under $75 --> shipping is calculated at checkout
Orders $75 and over --> free shipping

CHOOSING A SHIPPING OPTION:

If you are ordering houseplants or rosette shaped succulents, priority shipping will be the only option provided. Hardier succulents will have the option to ship USPS First Class Mail however, keep in mind your order will take between 2-5 business days for arrival. Priority shipping is definitely recommended to maintain the health of your plant purchase. 

SHIPPING IN SUMMER

It is the responsibility of customers residing in areas subject to extreme heat waves to plan the shipments until the weather is safe for shipping. Please message us at customercare@thornandraised.com to postpone or reschedule your shipments. Extremely high temperatures can cause the plants to rot and die. Make sure to retrieve the packages as soon as they are delivered. Don't let the packages sit under direct sunlight for more than an hour.

⚠️Thorn & Raised is not responsible for damage done to plants by extreme weather. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk. 

SHIPPING IN WINTER

It is the responsibility of customers residing in areas subject to freezing weather to purchase a heat pack.  While heat packs do not guarantee protection from frost, they will help prevent damage from occurring. Make sure to retrieve the packages as soon as they are delivered. Don't let the packages sit under direct sunlight for more than an hour. 

RETURNS

We only ship plants that are disease free and of good quality.  That being said, we cannot control what happens to your order during transit. We cannot accept returns on plant orders because the plants cannot survive two way shipping. However, we gladly offer refunds or replacements if your order arrives damaged. Please email us at customercare@thornandraised.com if you have any an issue with your plant order. Please provide your order number and photos of the damage, both to the packaging and the plants.  Do not dispose of the plants or packaging as the carrier may request their return.   

For accessories and pots orders, full refunds will be issued for any reason if your order is returned undamaged within 14 days of delivery. The customer is responsible for return shipping fees and any damage that occurs during transit.

  2. Proper Packaging: We take great care in packaging our live plants for shipping or delivery. Our packaging is designed to protect the plants during transit and ensure they arrive in the best possible condition. If, despite our efforts, your plant arrives damaged, please reach out to us immediately.

  3. Arrival Condition: We guarantee that your plant will arrive alive and ready to thrive. However, please keep in mind that some plants may experience minor stress or leaf shedding during transit due to environmental changes. This is a natural response and should not cause concern. In case of any major issues, please contact us within 48 hours of receiving your plant.

  4. Plant Care Support: We are committed to helping you succeed in caring for your plants. We provide detailed care instructions for each plant, including watering, light requirements, and any specific needs.

Please note that certain conditions may apply, and we may require photos or additional information to assess the situation.

Please note that plants are living organisms, and their growth and survival depend on various factors, including proper care, environmental conditions, and individual plant characteristics. While we guarantee the quality of our plants, we cannot guarantee their long-term survival or growth once they are in your care.

We are committed to your satisfaction and want to ensure you have a positive experience with our live plants. If you have any concerns or issues with your order, please don't hesitate to contact us, and we will do our best to resolve the situation promptly and to your satisfaction.
