Shipping & return policy
Delivery Time
Each product page displays ‘ships within’ information. This is the estimated time (actual time may vary) from the date the order is received until the product is dispatched from our warehouse located in Poland. The time from dispatch to delivery to your specified destination depends on both the distance from the warehouse and local regulations at the final destination; however, the time from dispatch to delivery is usually not longer than a week. For time-sensitive deliveries please reach out to our customer team at info@hem.com.
If you placed an order for products with different dispatch times the full order will be on hold until your entire order is available to be dispatched.
Please note that during promotional campaigns, delivery times may be slightly longer due to high volume.
