Order FAQs

1. How are orders shipped?

All orders are packaged by our team in Halifax and shipped via Canada Post.

2. How are shipping rates calculated?

Flat rate shipping for small orders is $7 anywhere in Canada. All other shipping options are calculated by Canada Post depending on the size and weight of the order and the destination postal code.

3. Do you send shipping confirmations?

You will receive an order confirmation after your order has been placed. Orders are typically mailed 24-72 hours after being placed. We do not send shipping confirmations, but you can always reach out to our team at orders@halifaxseed.ca for an update on the status of your order.

4. Can I track my order?

Flat rate shipping does not include tracking information. For all other shipping methods, you can find your tracking number with your order details under the Activity and Notifications section of your account page. Customers without an account will not have access to this page and can contact orders@halifaxseed.ca for tracking information.

5. Why am I getting a shipping calculation error?

Please review your entries in the shipping and billing fields for accuracy. If the error persists, please send a screenshot of your cart with your mailing address and phone number to orders@halifaxseed.ca.

6. I have not received my order, what should I do?

Please check your order confirmation to confirm your shipping address was entered correctly, including apartment or suite numbers. Refer to your tracking number (if applicable) to see if there has been a delay in shipping. You can reference Canada Post’s delivery standards to determine the expected delivery time for your area. If your address was entered correctly and your order is outside the expected window for delivery, please contact us at orders@halifaxseed.ca

7. I see two charges on my credit card, have I been charged twice?

Our payment processing software places a hold on your card when your order is confirmed. After your order has been shipped and invoiced, your card will be charged. Sometimes this results in both the hold and the final charge appearing on your card statement, but the hold will be removed within a few days. Only one charge will be applied to your card.
