We don't require a signature for delivery on most of our packages. We recommend opening your package soon after delivery to properly store items that require refrigeration. We are not responsible for packages reported damaged due to a delay in opening and/or not properly storing the package’s contents upon delivery.
- The decision to leave an unattended package at your front door is solely up to the discretion of the driver. We are not responsible for missed deliveries, sometimes resulting in a damaged product, because no one was home and the driver felt it was unsafe to leave it.
