Shipping Information
Homes Alive is committed to providing a helpful and simple shopping experience so that you can get back to spending time with your pets! This includes offering you competitive prices and timely shipping.
Important Holiday Shipping Information
Due to large order volumes and unpredictable delays in shipping carriers, we highly recommend placing any Christmas orders on or before December 9th, 2020 in order to receive them before Christmas.
Free Shipping
Free Shipping is now offered for all orders in Alberta over $100.00(Before tax). As well as select areas in Southern B.C. and Saskatchewan. If you order qualifies for free shipping, the option will be available in the checkout process. Free Shipping is sent by Canada Post Expedited parcel.
Subsidized Shipping
We will subsidize the quoted Canada Post and FedEx rates by 7.5% of your total shopping cart value. This means that if your shopping cart total is $100, we will discount the market shipping rate by $7.50. That way you never pay the full shipping price, and the more you buy, the less you pay on shipping!
Looking to figure out what your shipping cost will be? Please place all desired items in your cart. Click on "View and Edit Cart" from the small green cart at the top of the page. Then: Estimate Shipping & Tax. This will give you your subsidized shipping quote. (With Options!)
TIP: If you are buying a heavy bag of food, add on a few bags of treats. It will increase your shipping subsidy without applying much extra weight. This will help you get better value on shipping.
We hope you love this new policy. Please send your feedback and questions to customerservice@homesalive.ca We look forward to hearing from you.
