Receiving your delivery
If you cannot be home to meet the delivery driver at the door/buzz them into your building AND answer a text or phone call from them, you should choose either the local pick up option or standard shipping option instead. Japsga cannot be held responsible if your package goes missing after it has been left on your doorstep (if you live in a house) or common area of your apartment building.
When the delivery driver arrives at your residence, you will receive a text or phone call notifying you to meet the driver outside of your front door. If the driver is unable to reach you, your package will be left on your doorstep at your own risk. Japsga cannot be held responsible for packages that go missing after being left on your doorstep.
If you live in an apartment building, you must come down to meet the driver at the lobby entrance. You will receive a text or phone call notifying you that the delivery driver is there. If the driver cannot reach you by text or phone, your package will be left in the common area of your apartment building, provided the driver can access the interior of the building. Japsga cannot be held responsible for your package if it goes missing after having been delivered to a common area of your building. If the driver cannot access the interior of the building to leave your package, your package will be returned to Japsga. You can then choose to pick up your order in person from our place (free of charge), or have us reschedule your delivery by Call/Text us on +1 587-432-4986 at a cost of $14, to be paid online before delivery is rescheduled.
IN PERSON PICK UP
When placing an order online, we offer two options on the check out page:

Our shipping rates are determined by Canada Post based on the weight of the package, where it's being shipped to, and the service type you selected at checkout.
Canada Post rates are usually a minimum of $15-$17 and up.
Customers are responsible for providing the correct AND full address for shipping. Failure to do so will result in your package being returned to Japsga. You can then reschedule your delivery at a cost set by Canada Post shipping rates, to be paid online before delivery is rescheduled. Refunds will not be provided.
