Shipping, Return, & Refund Policies

Updated 02/29/2024

Thank you for trusting Bucket of Bread (BoB) to provide you with high quality dough mixes and other fun stuff from the store. BoB has established this policy to ensure you can shop online with confidence and trust.

Bottom Line Up Front on the Guarantee
If you are not satisfied with your Bucket of Bread purchase, we’ll figure out how to make it right or give a refund. You are purchasing from Bucket of Bread at a very low risk for anything going wrong. The Bucket of Bread approach is we communicate and try to figure out what happened together… and everything will happen to make it right.

Timeline
If BoB did something wrong concerning your order, please address it within 30-days from placing your order, BoB will replace the product entirely or provide you with a refund for the full purchase price. To start the process, please have your order information from your email receipt readily available and use the contact form found on the website to send an email message.

Delivery Mistakes
While delivery mishaps are not always likely to happen, please accept BoB’s apologies and thanks for understanding the situation. All buckets sent are United States Postal Service (USPS) insured and sent US Priority Mail with tracking information set to your email on file. Deliveries may take 2-5 days to reach you. Please understand if the order address is incorrect, this is a terribly unfortunate mistake. Please check your delivery address carefully when making an order.

Tracking Shows Delivered
If tracking is chosen with the USPS Priority Mail option they usually can find it. When the tracking for your package is updated as “delivered” by the postal carrier, it triggers an automatic email from BoB to let you know about the new status. Sometimes, a package will be marked as delivered by the shipping carrier prematurely. If you receive the delivery email but have not received your package, please note that USPS delivery vehicles use GPS which may automatically update a package as “delivered” prematurely. Please wait another business day, as the package could have been marked as delivered by mistake, and will arrive on the following business day.

Lost or Stolen Packages
If, for some strange reason, there is still an issue with your delivery, contact the local USPS post office. Contacting your local post office, and not the USPS hotline is better as they are able to provide quicker, and personal services. Key questions to ask them are who delivered the package and for the details of that day’s delivery. The USPS is accustomed to these types of questions, and will generally provide helpful information.

Your Bucket of Bread Packages Are Insured
Remember, if you use the recommended USPS Priority Mail option for shipping, Bucket of Bread packages are insured. If you need to further communicate with BoB regarding your packages, please have the USPS case number and as much information as possible. All of the Bucket of Bread contact information is in your email receipt and in the footer of this web page should you need it to file an official claim with the USPS.

Official USPS Reports
To file a USPS official report or incident involving your missing package, please visit the USPS Missing Mail Website for more information. Then, follow the steps found at the USPS Claims Page to receive a case number. Alternatively, you can contact the USPS customer care at 1-(800) 275-8777.

Additional Warranties
BoB doesn’t have control over any of the handling, long-term storage conditions, or methods used in preparing or baking your dough once received. There aren’t any additional warranties expressed or implied so liability is limited to a refund of the purchase amount or replacement of the product when applicable. Due to the perishable nature of these food products, please do not mail back any return items as BoB does not use such buckets for resale.

Special Arrangements
If there is a special arrangement made with Bucket of Bread LLC to support corporate events, fundraising, or other discounted bulk purchases (typically 50 buckets or more), the shipping arrangement used is as per the terms of the agreement.  Each agreement may be different.

3rd Party Sales
Merch or Swag items are processed through a 3rd party print on demand company at PRINTIFUL.COM.

For 3rd Party Print on Demand Services the following applies:

Unclaimed returns get donated to charity after 30 days. If Printful’s facility isn’t used as the return address, you would become liable for any returned shipments you receive.

Wrong Address – If you or your end customer provide an address that is considered insufficient by the courier, the shipment will be returned to our facility. You will be liable for reshipment costs once we have confirmed an updated address with you (if and as applicable).

Unclaimed – Shipments that go unclaimed are returned to our facility and you will be liable for the cost of a reshipment to yourself or your end customer (if and as applicable).

If you haven’t registered an account on printful.com and added a billing method, you hereby agree that any returned orders due to the wrong shipping address or a failure to claim the shipment won’t be available for reshipping and will be donated to charity at your cost (without us issuing a refund).

Customers residing in Brazil and regretting a purchase must contact our Customer Service and express their will to return the item within 7 consecutive days after receiving it, providing a picture of the item. The withdrawal request will undergo an evaluation to verify whether the product was used or destroyed, even if partial. In these cases, a refund will not be possible.
