Shipping policy

Last updated: July 18, 2026

At HarmonyChime, we believe that receiving a thoughtfully chosen object should feel calm, clear, and uncomplicated. Our wind chimes, hanging bells, suncatchers, garden ornaments, wind spinners, and meditation-inspired decorations are selected to bring gentle sound, natural movement, and quiet character into everyday spaces.

This Shipping Policy explains how orders placed through HarmonyChime.store are processed, shipped, tracked, delivered, delayed, and handled when a delivery issue occurs.

By placing an order through our website, you acknowledge that you have reviewed and accepted this Shipping Policy, together with our Terms of Service and Return & Refund Policy.

1. Store Information

1380 Rue de l'Everest

For shipping assistance, please include your full name, order number, delivery address, and a brief description of your concern.

2. Shipping Coverage

HarmonyChime offers shipping to customers in Canada and many international destinations.

We aim to provide worldwide delivery wherever reliable carrier service is available. However, shipping may be unavailable or temporarily restricted in certain countries, territories, remote regions, military zones, conflict areas, or locations affected by customs limitations, carrier suspensions, trade restrictions, or legal requirements.

Available destinations are normally shown during checkout. If the website accepts your shipping address and allows the order to be completed, this generally means that delivery is currently available to that destination.

We reserve the right to cancel an order when we discover that the destination cannot be served safely, legally, or reliably. If this occurs after payment, the affected order will be refunded to the original payment method.

3. Free Worldwide Shipping

HarmonyChime offers free standard shipping worldwide on eligible orders placed through HarmonyChime.store.

Free shipping applies to the standard delivery method selected by HarmonyChime. It does not necessarily include:

Expedited shipping

Express courier service

Priority customs processing

Special handling requests

Remote-area carrier surcharges

Import duties or customs taxes

Redelivery charges caused by an incorrect address

Fees imposed by local authorities or third-party carriers

When an upgraded shipping option is available, the additional cost will be displayed during checkout before the order is completed.

Free shipping promotions may be modified, suspended, or restricted in the future. However, the shipping terms displayed and accepted at checkout will apply to the relevant order.

4. Order Processing Time

Most orders are prepared for shipment within one to three business days after payment is successfully authorized.

Business days generally mean Monday through Friday, excluding public holidays observed in Québec, Canada, and holidays affecting our fulfilment or delivery partners.

Order processing may include:

Payment confirmation

Fraud-prevention review

Address verification

Inventory confirmation

Product inspection

Protective packaging

Shipping label preparation

Transfer to the delivery carrier

Orders placed on weekends or public holidays will generally begin processing on the next available business day.

During high-demand periods, promotional events, seasonal peaks, severe weather, or major holidays, processing may take longer than usual.

Processing time is separate from delivery time.

5. Estimated Delivery Time

Our typical standard delivery estimate is:

Seven to ten business days after shipment

This estimate begins when the order has been processed and handed to the shipping carrier. It does not begin on the date the order is placed.

For example, an order may require one to three business days for processing, followed by approximately seven to ten business days in transit.

Delivery estimates are provided in good faith but are not absolute guarantees. Actual delivery time may vary depending on:

Destination country

Distance from the fulfilment location

Local carrier performance

Customs inspection

Weather conditions

Seasonal shipping volume

Public holidays

Remote-area service

Incorrect or incomplete address information

Security screening

Transportation disruptions

Events beyond our reasonable control

Some international, rural, island, or remote deliveries may require additional transit time.

6. Order Confirmation

After completing checkout, you should receive an order confirmation at the email address provided during purchase.

The confirmation normally includes:

Order number

Products ordered

Billing information

Delivery information

Purchase total

Applicable taxes

Shipping method

If you do not receive an order confirmation, please check your spam, junk, promotions, or filtered email folders.

You may also contact support@HarmonyChime.store to confirm whether your order was successfully received.

An order confirmation acknowledges that the order was submitted. It does not necessarily mean that the order has completed processing or entered shipment.

7. Shipping Confirmation

When your order has been prepared and transferred for delivery, we will normally send a shipping confirmation email.

The shipping confirmation may include:

Carrier name

Tracking number

Tracking link

Shipment date

Estimated delivery information

Items included in the shipment

Some orders may be divided into multiple parcels. If this happens, you may receive more than one tracking number and the parcels may arrive on different dates.

Please allow up to several business days for tracking information to become fully visible after the shipping confirmation is sent. A tracking number may be created before the carrier performs its first physical scan.

8. Tracking Your Order

Customers are encouraged to monitor tracking regularly after shipment.

Tracking updates may include:

Label created

Shipment accepted

In transit

Arrived at sorting facility

Customs processing

Out for delivery

Delivery attempted

Delivered

Tracking information is supplied by third-party carriers. HarmonyChime does not control how frequently a carrier scans or updates a parcel.

It is common for tracking to remain unchanged for several days while a parcel moves between major facilities or crosses an international border.

A temporary pause in tracking does not necessarily mean that the parcel has been lost.

Contact us when tracking has shown no meaningful movement for an unusually long period or when the estimated delivery window has passed.

9. International Shipping

International orders may pass through multiple carriers, transfer centres, and customs authorities before reaching the final destination.

International delivery may require:

Export documentation

Customs inspection

Import clearance

Transfer to a local postal or courier service

Identity or address verification

Payment of applicable duties or taxes

Customs processing time is not included in our normal delivery estimate because it is controlled by government authorities.

HarmonyChime cannot guarantee how quickly customs will inspect, release, or assess a parcel.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that ordered products may legally be imported into their destination country.

10. Customs Duties and Import Taxes

Free shipping does not automatically mean that customs duties, import taxes, brokerage charges, or local handling fees are included.

Unless expressly stated at checkout, international customers may be responsible for charges imposed by:

Customs authorities

Local governments

Postal services

Courier companies

Import brokers

Tax agencies

These charges are not determined or collected by HarmonyChime and may vary based on the product, declared value, destination, and local regulations.

We recommend checking local import requirements before placing an international order.

Refusing a parcel because of customs fees may cause the package to be delayed, abandoned, destroyed, or returned. Refund eligibility for refused international parcels will be assessed after the package is safely returned and inspected.

Any non-refundable customs, return, carrier, or handling charges may be deducted where legally permitted.

11. Shipping Addresses

Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address at checkout.

Please review the following information carefully:

Recipient’s full name

Street number and street name

Apartment, unit, or suite number

City

Province, state, or region

Postal or ZIP code

Country

Telephone number

Email address

HarmonyChime is not responsible for delays or failed deliveries caused by information entered incorrectly by the customer.

If you notice an address error, contact us immediately at support@HarmonyChime.store.

We will make a reasonable effort to update the address before shipment. However, changes cannot be guaranteed after processing begins or after the parcel has been transferred to the carrier.

12. Address Changes After Shipment

Once a parcel is in transit, HarmonyChime may be unable to change its destination.

Some carriers may permit address correction, redirection, or pickup at a local facility. These options depend on the carrier and destination.

Additional carrier fees may apply to customer-requested changes after shipment.

Do not submit an address change directly to a carrier unless instructed or permitted by the carrier. Unauthorized changes may create delays or interfere with delivery verification.

13. Incorrect or Undeliverable Addresses

A parcel may be returned to the sender when the delivery address is:

Incomplete

Incorrect

Invalid

Missing a unit number

Outside the carrier’s service area

Not recognized by local postal systems

Associated with an unavailable recipient

If an order is returned because of customer-provided address information, we may offer:

Reshipment to a corrected address

Refund after the parcel is returned and inspected

Store credit

Another reasonable resolution

Additional shipping costs may apply to reshipment caused by a customer address error.

14. Delivery Locations

Orders may be delivered to:

Residential addresses

Business addresses

Apartments

Approved postal addresses

Carrier pickup points

Other locations supported by the destination carrier

We do not guarantee delivery to all post office boxes, parcel lockers, freight-forwarding centres, hotels, temporary accommodations, or military addresses.

Customers using a hotel, office, shared residence, forwarding company, or commercial receiving service are responsible for ensuring that the location accepts parcels and properly transfers them to the intended recipient.

Delivery to the address provided may be considered completed even when the parcel is accepted by a receptionist, doorman, mailroom employee, household member, colleague, or authorized receiving agent.

15. Delivery Attempts

Depending on the carrier and destination, a parcel may:

Be left in a safe location

Be placed in a mailbox

Be delivered to a front desk

Require a signature

Be redirected to a pickup location

Be scheduled for another attempt

Customers are responsible for reviewing carrier notices and collecting parcels within the stated pickup period.

If a parcel is returned because it was not collected or because repeated delivery attempts were unsuccessful, contact us for assistance.

Reshipment may require payment of additional delivery costs unless the failed delivery was caused by our error or the carrier’s confirmed fault.

16. Safe-Place Delivery

Some carriers may leave a parcel at a location they consider reasonably safe.

This may include:

Front door

Side entrance

Porch

Mailbox area

Building lobby

Reception desk

Covered entryway

Parcel locker

Once tracking confirms delivery, customers should check all likely delivery locations and ask household members, neighbours, reception staff, and building management before reporting the parcel as missing.

Customers may request signature delivery when available, but additional fees may apply.

17. Split Shipments

An order containing multiple products may be shipped in separate parcels due to:

Different fulfilment locations

Product size

Packaging requirements

Inventory availability

Carrier restrictions

Processing times

Split shipments may arrive on different days.

You will not be charged additional standard shipping fees when we divide an eligible free-shipping order into multiple parcels.

Please review all tracking numbers before reporting part of an order as missing.

18. Packaging

HarmonyChime products may include delicate hanging components, decorative bells, cords, metal pieces, resin ornaments, reflective elements, glass-like pieces, bamboo, or wooden details.

We use packaging intended to reduce movement and protect the product during ordinary transportation.

Packaging may include:

Protective wrapping

Inner cartons

Cushioning materials

Dividers

Sealed bags

Reinforced outer boxes

Some products may require gentle adjustment, unfolding, untangling, or assembly after delivery.

Please open the package carefully and avoid using sharp tools near cords, painted surfaces, hanging lines, or decorative components.

Keep all packaging until you have inspected the order.

19. Damaged Parcels

If the outer package appears severely damaged, crushed, punctured, opened, or wet, photograph it before opening whenever possible.

After opening, inspect the product and all components.

Contact us promptly when an item arrives damaged and include:

Order number

Photographs of the outer package

Photographs of the shipping label

Photographs of the internal packaging

Photographs of the full product

Close-up images of the damage

A video when the problem concerns movement, sound, or functionality

Do not discard the packaging before we complete our review, as the carrier may require supporting evidence.

Damaged-product claims are handled under our Return & Refund Policy.

20. Missing Items

If a product or component appears to be missing:

Check all packaging carefully

Look inside protective wrapping

Review whether the order was divided into multiple shipments

Check each tracking number

Compare the contents with the product page and packing information

Contact us if the item remains missing.

Please include photographs showing the full contents of the parcel and all packaging received.

When a missing item is confirmed, we may offer a replacement, replacement component, refund, or other appropriate resolution.

21. Delayed Shipments

A delivery is not automatically considered lost simply because it arrives later than the estimated window.

Delays may occur because of:

Customs inspections

Carrier backlogs

Weather emergencies

Natural disasters

Transportation strikes

Peak shopping seasons

Address verification

Remote delivery routes

Flight cancellations

Port congestion

Security events

Government restrictions

Infrastructure interruptions

We will assist with tracking and carrier inquiries when a shipment is significantly delayed.

Please allow a reasonable investigation period before a replacement or refund is issued.

22. Lost Shipments

Contact HarmonyChime if tracking has not updated for an extended period or if the carrier confirms that the parcel cannot be located.

We may ask you to:

Confirm the delivery address

Wait for the carrier’s standard delivery window

Contact the local post office

Complete a non-receipt statement

Provide identification or address confirmation

Allow time for a carrier investigation

When a parcel is officially confirmed lost in transit, HarmonyChime may provide:

A replacement shipment

A full refund

Store credit

Another agreed resolution

The available resolution may depend on product availability, destination, carrier findings, and applicable consumer law.

23. Orders Marked as Delivered but Not Received

When tracking shows “delivered” but the parcel cannot be found, please:

Check all entrances and safe locations

Check your mailbox or parcel locker

Ask household members

Ask neighbours

Contact reception or building management

Wait until the end of the delivery day

Contact the local carrier office

Occasionally, a parcel may be marked delivered shortly before it physically arrives.

If the parcel remains missing, contact us with your order number and confirmation of the steps completed.

We will review the available tracking evidence and assist with a carrier investigation where possible.

A delivered status does not automatically resolve every claim, but we may require supporting evidence before providing a replacement or refund.

24. Stolen Packages

HarmonyChime cannot control theft occurring after confirmed delivery.

However, we will review reports of stolen packages in good faith.

Customers may be asked to provide:

A carrier inquiry number

A police or building security report

Camera footage when available

Written confirmation from building management

A completed non-receipt declaration

Available remedies will depend on the circumstances, carrier findings, and applicable law.

We encourage customers to use a secure delivery address whenever possible.

25. Refused Deliveries

Please do not refuse delivery unless HarmonyChime has instructed you to do so.

Refused packages may:

Take several weeks to return

Be charged return shipping fees

Accumulate customs charges

Be destroyed or abandoned by the carrier

Fail to return to the correct facility

A refund cannot normally be completed until the refused parcel is received and inspected.

Non-recoverable delivery, customs, brokerage, and return charges may be deducted where permitted.

26. Order Cancellations

Contact us as soon as possible to request cancellation.

We may be able to cancel an order before it enters fulfilment.

Cancellation cannot be guaranteed once:

Inventory has been allocated

The order has been packed

A shipping label has been created

The parcel has been transferred to a carrier

The order is in transit

If cancellation is no longer possible, the customer may request a return after delivery in accordance with our Return & Refund Policy.

27. Product Availability

Although we aim to maintain accurate inventory records, a product may become unavailable after an order is submitted.

This may occur due to:

Simultaneous purchases

Inventory errors

Damaged stock

Supplier interruption

Quality-control rejection

Technical synchronization issues

When an ordered product is unavailable, we may:

Offer a reasonable alternative

Provide a revised shipping estimate

Ship available items separately

Cancel the unavailable product

Issue a refund

We will not substitute a materially different product without the customer’s agreement.

28. Seasonal and Holiday Delays

Shipping networks often experience increased demand during:

Christmas and New Year

Black Friday and Cyber Monday

National holidays

Major promotional events

Severe winter weather

International shopping festivals

Orders placed during these periods may require additional processing and transit time.

Customers purchasing gifts are encouraged to order early.

Delivery by a particular holiday or event date is not guaranteed unless an express written delivery commitment is provided.

29. Severe Weather and Natural Events

Outdoor decoration orders may be affected by storms, snow, wildfire, flooding, hurricanes, earthquakes, extreme temperatures, or other natural events.

These conditions may temporarily interrupt:

Carrier collection

Air transportation

Road transportation

Sorting facilities

Severe weather

We will continue to act in good faith and provide remedies required under applicable law.

31. Freight Forwarders and Reshipping Services

Customers may choose to use a freight forwarder or reshipping service.

HarmonyChime’s delivery responsibility may be considered completed when the parcel is successfully delivered to the forwarding address provided at checkout.

We are not responsible for damage, loss, delay, repackaging, customs issues, or incorrect onward delivery occurring after the freight forwarder accepts the parcel.

Customers using forwarding services should inspect the service’s terms, prohibited items, insurance coverage, and delivery procedures before ordering.

32. Changes to Shipping Methods

HarmonyChime may select or change the carrier used for an order as long as the replacement method provides reasonably comparable service.

Carrier selection may depend on:

Destination

Parcel dimensions

Product type

Service availability

Delivery reliability

Seasonal conditions

Operational requirements

The carrier displayed initially may differ from the final local carrier used to complete delivery.

33. Shipping Restrictions

Some products may be subject to destination-specific restrictions due to materials, size, customs classification, carrier rules, or local regulations.

We may cancel or modify a shipment if:

The destination prohibits the product

Required documentation is unavailable

The carrier refuses the parcel

Shipping presents a safety risk

Trade restrictions apply

Legal compliance cannot reasonably be assured

When an order is cancelled for these reasons, the affected amount will be refunded.

34. Responsibility After Delivery

Customers should inspect products soon after delivery and store or install them appropriately.

Wind chimes and hanging décor should not be left unsecured in severe weather.

HarmonyChime is not responsible for product damage occurring after delivery due to:

Improper installation

Weak mounting points

Storm exposure

Excessive wind

Falling branches

Moisture damage

Carrier services

Delivery destinations

Processing practices

Shipping costs

Legal obligations

Customs requirements

Business operations

The policy published at the time of purchase will generally apply to that order unless a later version provides more favourable terms or a change is required by law.

The latest revision date appears at the beginning of this policy.

Nothing in this Shipping Policy is intended to exclude or limit a mandatory consumer right.

Depending on the customer’s location, legal rights may apply concerning:

Delivery deadlines

Undelivered purchases

Order cancellation

Refund timing

Product loss

Incorrect deliveries

Distance contracts

Where this policy conflicts with a mandatory consumer law, the applicable law will prevail.
