Shipping Policy
Last updated: July 15th, 2026
We want you to know exactly what to expect when you order from Spillman Speaks — from the moment you check out to the moment your package arrives. Here's how our shipping works.
1. Order Processing (Production Time)
All Spillman Speaks apparel is made to order through our print-on-demand production partners. Nothing is pre-made or sitting on a shelf — production begins after your order is placed.
- Standard production time is 2–7 business days before an order ships
- Production time does not include weekends or holidays
- During high-volume periods — holidays, product launches, or seasonal promotions — production may take longer than the standard window
- Production time cannot be expedited, even with faster shipping selected. Choosing a faster shipping method speeds up transit after the item ships — it does not shorten production
2. Shipping
- At this time, we ship within the United States only (including U.S. territories)
- After production is complete, standard shipping typically takes an additional 2–8 business days, depending on your location and the carrier
- Total estimated time from order to delivery is approximately 4–15 business days, combining production and transit
- Shipping rates are calculated at checkout based on your order and delivery address
- These are estimates, not guarantees — see Shipping Delays below
3. Separate Shipments
Because our products are produced through a network of fulfillment partners:
- If your order contains multiple items, they may be produced by different partners and arrive in separate packages, on different days
- Each package will have its own tracking information
- You will not be charged extra for split shipments
4. Tracking Information
- Once your order ships, you'll receive an email with tracking information
- Please allow up to 48 hours for tracking to activate after you receive your shipping confirmation — this is normal and does not mean your order hasn't shipped
- If tracking hasn't updated after 48 hours, feel free to reach out and we'll look into it
5. Address Accuracy
Please review your shipping address carefully before completing checkout.
- Spillman Speaks is not responsible for delays, extra shipping costs, or lost packages resulting from an incorrect or incomplete address entered at checkout
- If you notice an error, contact us the same day you place your order
- Once an order has entered production, we may be unable to change the shipping address, and once it has shipped, no changes can be made at all
6. Cancellations
- Orders may be canceled within 24 hours of purchase by contacting us directly
- Because our products are made to order, orders that have entered production cannot be canceled, modified, or combined with another order
7. Shipping Delays
We work with reliable production and shipping partners, but some things are outside our control.
- Delays caused by weather, holidays, carrier issues, customs, or high order volume may occasionally occur
- Estimated delivery dates are estimates only and are not guaranteed
- If your order is significantly delayed beyond the windows above, contact us and we'll help track it down
8. Lost or Missing Packages
If tracking shows your package as delivered but you can't locate it:
- Check around your property, including porches, side doors, and mailrooms
- Check with household members
- Check with neighbors
- Contact your local carrier with your tracking number — packages are sometimes scanned as delivered a day or two early
If you've done all of the above and still need help, contact us with your order number and we'll help investigate the shipment with our fulfillment partner.
9. Digital Products
Digital products (planners, printables, activity books, coloring books, storybooks, templates, and bundles) are delivered electronically and do not require shipping. Download instructions and access are provided immediately after purchase.
