If the order has already shipped:
address modification may not be possible,
re-routing fees may apply,
and delivery delays may occur.
Submitting an address-change request does not guarantee that the update can be completed before shipment processing.

Once an order ships, customers receive:
shipment confirmation,
tracking details,
and carrier information by email.
Tracking updates may take time to appear after the carrier receives the shipment, particularly for:
international shipments,
freight deliveries,
or multi-box orders.
If tracking shows little or no movement for an unusually long period, customers should contact Shelfwrk with:
their Order ID,
tracking number,
and delivery address.
12. Missed Delivery Attempts
If a delivery attempt is missed, the carrier may:
attempt delivery again,
hold the shipment for pickup,
or leave instructions for rescheduling.
Carrier procedures vary depending on:
service provider,
region,
and shipment type.
If a shipment is returned because delivery could not be completed:
additional re-shipping charges may apply
once the address and delivery conditions are confirmed.
13. Inspecting the Shipment After Delivery
Customers should inspect shipments promptly after delivery.
If an order arrives:
damaged,
incomplete,
incorrect,
or with visible shipping issues,
customers should contact Shelfwrk as soon as possible and provide:
Order ID
Clear photos of the product
Clear photos of the outer carton and packaging
Relevant delivery notes where available

all original packaging,
cartons,

Customs inspection
Address verification
Failed delivery attempts

If a shipment has not arrived within a reasonable period after dispatch, customers may contact Shelfwrk for shipment review and support.
15. Lost Shipments & Missing Packages
If a shipment is officially confirmed lost by the carrier, Shelfwrk may provide:
a replacement shipment (subject to stock availability),
or a refund issued in USD to the original payment method.
If tracking shows “Delivered” but the package cannot be located, customers should first check:
Around the property
With household members
With building staff or concierge
Nearby safe-drop areas identified by the carrier
If the package still cannot be located, customers should contact Shelfwrk for further review.
16. Returned-to-Sender Shipments
An order may be returned to sender if:
the address is incomplete or invalid,
delivery attempts repeatedly fail,
the shipment is refused,
or the carrier cannot access the delivery location.
If this occurs, Shelfwrk may contact the customer to confirm whether the shipment should be:
re-shipped,
corrected,
or refunded according to eligibility.
Additional charges may apply, including:
Carrier return charges
Re-shipping fees
Address correction fees
where the issue was not caused by a verified carrier-side error.
17. Order Cancellation & Shipping Status
Shipping-related cancellation requests are subject to the Shelfwrk Cancellation Policy.
Generally, customers may request cancellation within:
24 hours after placing the order
only if:
the order has not entered processing,
and shipment preparation has not started.
Submitting a cancellation request within 24 hours does not guarantee cancellation approval.
Once the order:
enters processing,
receives shipment preparation,
or is handed to the carrier,
cancellation may no longer be possible.
18. Shipping Charges at Checkout
Shipping charges are calculated and displayed at checkout in:
USD
based on:
destination region,
product dimensions,
shipment weight,
and order value.
If free shipping applies:
the discount will appear automatically during checkout.
If checkout does not display an available delivery method for a destination:
Shelfwrk is currently unable to ship to that address.
