How We Ship
At Kawartha Quilting & Sewing, we’re committed to getting your orders to you safely, quickly, and affordably—whether you're quilting in the heart of the Kawarthas or anywhere across Canada.
Couriers We Use
We ship most orders using CanPar, Purolator, UPS, or GLS, depending on your location and the size of your parcel. If you'd like to choose a specific courier, you can request one at checkout for an additional $2.
PO Boxes
We recommend using a residential shipping address whenever possible. Orders shipped to a P.O. Box will go via Canada Post, which may cause delays.
- Batting cannot be shipped to P.O. Boxes.
- If a P.O. Box is provided for a batting order, we’ll contact you for an alternate address. If one cannot be provided, we will refund that portion of the order.
Shipping Schedule & Processing
We ship orders Tuesday to Friday. Orders placed before 12:00 PM EST typically ship the next business day.
Orders placed after 12:00 PM on Friday may not ship until the following Tuesday.
If we experience unexpected delays, we’ll contact you right away.
