Save or print the confirmation email for your records as we do not print and send invoices to save paper and ink resources.

If you did not see an order confirmation page after order placement and still cannot find your order confirmation email in your inbox, spam, or promotional folders, most likely your order was not successfully placed. You may contact us to confirm your order status and information.

If your request is approved, all items in the order will be immediately restocked on the website for anyone to purchase.

There is a -5% fee on ALL cancelled orders because the card processing company will not refund their charges. We cannot be held liable for incorrect information given to us.

Why the -5% fee?

Card processing companies do not refund their processing fees once an order has been placed, which costs up to 5% of the total charge.

We cannot be held liable for nor can we change any incorrect or omitted order information given to us. Thank you for understanding. We cannot apply coupon codes or change any information to your order after placement. If any important information given is incorrect (such as incorrect shipping address, incorrect shipping method, etc.), we cannot change this information.

Delivery time estimates are NOT guaranteed by any postal service for any packages due to “Covid-19 delays”. Perma-Earth LLC cannot be held responsible for late packages due to postal service delays out of our control. This is extremely common around the holiday seasons, so please be patient. Our package protection covers LOST and DAMAGED* packages. *see tab below

It may take an additional business day after our current processing time (at the top of the checkout page) for the postal service scan to appear on the package tracking information.

Choosing an express shipping option does not affect processing time. During the holiday season, we may offer a “first processing” service purchase during checkout to put your order at the top of the processing list for an additional fee.

Business days are Monday-Friday, excluding federal and store holidays.

UPS Express options (2 day and overnight) do not deliver on weekends.

UPS will not ship to P.O. (Post Office) boxes.

If there is an issue with your order, we may need to contact you before shipping your order, at which point your order is put on hold until we can determine the best course of action.

Within 2 business days after latest estimated processing time (see Delivery Processing & Time above) you should receive a shipping confirmation email with tracking information (check your spam folder if not in your inbox and mark as NOT spam).

If you still cannot find your shipment confirmation email and would like to make sure we shipped your order, you may check your account orders or contact us to confirm your order shipment and tracking information.

Once your order has been marked as delivered successfully by the postal provider, you will also receive a delivery confirmation email.

If you think your email address or any other information was entered incorrectly, please contact us as soon as possible – however we are not liable for any incorrect information given to us. Thank you for understanding.

Use the tracking number located in your account orders or your order’s shipment confirmation email (see the above Shipment &Tracking Confirmation tab) to track your package status at usps.com or ups.com

If you cannot find your shipment confirmation email in your inbox, spam, or promotional email folders, then please contact us.

We require a 1.5% handling fee and a 1.5% protection fee for 3 main reasons:

Complications with the postal services have been unprecedented in 2022, so we had to start tacking on these fees to cover the postal issues with:

1. Not scanning packages properly: We solved this by driving and unloading all packages to the post office to watch them scan each package individually, getting a receipt, and checking the receipt, then filing the receipts for future references in the case of any event. Our handling fees cover these extra costs of gas, labor, time, as well as company car insurance and maintenance.
2. Lost and/or “significantly late” packages: Our protection fee covers these instances*, which seem to be getting more common and especially around busy seasons. *Please keep in mind that we are not liable for postage delays out of our control and see our tab about these issues below for more information.
3. Damaged packages: Our protection fee covers these instances*. We have had increased reports of damaged packages for reasons unknown, although we do our best to protect the items with proper packaging materials. *Please see our tab about this issue below for more information.

It is very important that you request a cancellation of your order before it is processed (see Order Cancellations tab above), or else your order could be shipped out as-is. You must request a cancellation of your order in your account orders, we cannot cancel the order for you.

We are not liable for incorrect information given by the customer. Thank you for understanding.

If your order has already been shipped with the incorrect address on the label, you (the customer) will need to contact the postal provider with your tracking number (see Package Tracking tab above) for further information. You may request a “change of destination” or a “return to sender” with your postal provider at this point.

USPS Customer Service Phone Number: 1 (800) 275-8777

UPS Customer Service Phone Number: 1 (800) 742-5877

If we receive a “return to sender” package due to insufficient or incorrect address reasons as stated on the tracking or package return, we will process it as a return and this will incur a -15% restock and refund fee, NOT refunding shipping and handling costs. This is an issue you will need to handle with your local post office and this is not covered in our protection fee.

If your item was damaged upon arrival (not safe to use, broken, incurred significant loss, became impractical or unable to use), we understand this inconvenient and possibly dangerous situation. However, we are not responsible for item damage claims which are made 7 days after delivery. We appreciate your prompt cooperation in these instances.

Please contact us with your name and/or order number, and clear photographic proof (as much evidence as possible, including entire box, contents, and packaging materials) within 7 days of delivery date shown on tracking so we can process an appropriate refund to original order’s payment method and/or replacement of products to the original shipping address. Damage claims made after 7 days of delivery date cannot be covered.

Proof

We require photographic proof within 7 days of delivery confirmation on tracking to determine the item(s) and/or packages’ condition for any claim. Determining condition is up to our discretion based on clear photographic or video evidence or another form of evidence through postal tracking.

Shipping Protection Refund Instances

If your item(s) arrived “imperfect yet usable” you may apply for a refund of the shipping/handling protection fee using the same methods and restrictions above.

This does not include items which were on sale for said imperfection made aware to the buyer in the listing before purchase. This does not include all imperfections a buyer may see, potentially replicate, or easily remedy themselves.

Unacceptable protection fee refund claim examples may include, but are not limited to:

• a soap dent which does not impair function
• a soap air pocket that does not impair use or value
• a melted product in which no product can be shown as lost outside of container (it will go back to normal state at normal temperature)
• Beading of oils/fats due to temperature fluctuations that does not decrease practical use (they will go back to normal state during use)
• No damages (decreases in value) to the practical use of the product.
• Non-legible price tags or manufacture dates (batch productions are recorded for any requested reference).

Acceptable applications for shipping protection fee refund claims may include, but are not limited to:

• Soiled labels or containers on other products from another damaged/broken/spilled product from the same package
• A container which looks impaired, but is in fact not (i.e. clear evidence of a visually striking bubble or abnormal line or feature in a glass container)
• A package which took too long to arrive according to the tracking information and depending upon shipping method selected (over 2 weeks for domestic shipments and over 30 days for Canadian shipments from day of scanned shipment)
• Package was declared lost or significantly delayed as shown on tracking information.

Claim Rejections

Applications for refunds on product imperfections in which the product is still usable, practical value is not lost, is functioning, or without clear proof of evidence will be subject for more consideration and a higher probability of claim rejection.

Thank you for understanding our policies and coverage details! We strive to be upfront and fair for all parties involved.

Every business day we check the status of our in-transit packages tracking information to confirm every USA-bound shipped package is arriving within 2 weeks of shipment date (30 days for Canada shipments). If a USA package has not arrived by day 15 from shipment or does not have current active updates on the tracking information to estimate delivery, we will start the inquiry case, missing mail search, and insurance claim processes with the postal service on your behalf to locate the package and we will check the status daily until delivery or status confirmation. This is the same process for Canadian packages if the package has not arrived by day 30 from shipment according to tracking.

LOST packages are officially determined by the postal service provider within 30 days (USA) or 45 days (international) of shipment date if the location cannot be determined after an inquiry or claim. We will fully replace the package or refund to original payment method after such determination has been made by the postal service provider. Lost packages are not packages that are marked as “delivered” on the tracking. Please see tab below for packages marked as “delivered”.

Perma-Earth LLC cannot be held responsible for packages that arrive late due to postal service delays out of our control. Please follow the next steps below if your package is late.

If your package is SIGNIFICANTLY LATE (please refer to the dates below) due to postal service delays, you may place another order. If the first package arrives after you place your second order, do not open it because you may request a FREE return to sender service with the postal provider on unopened packages within 1 week of delivery. Once the first package is returned to us, we can issue a full product refund, including shipping cost due to the late package.

Significantly late times:

USPS First Class/Parcel Ground/Priority or UPS Ground = 15+ days from shipment date

USPS Express or UPS 3-Day Select = 5+ days from shipment date

USPS Overnight or UPS 2nd-Day Air/Next Day Air = 3+ days from shipment date

Your package might have been scanned as delivered too early and could arrive up to 2 days after being falsely scanned as delivered. This is the most common issue.

Always check with your neighbors, it’s likely that the mail carrier delivered your package to the wrong address.

If you live in an apartment complex, check with the rental office. Sometimes deliveries will be made there.

Talk to the supervisor at your local post office if USPS was your chosen shipping method. They will be able to communicate with your mail carrier and look on the vehicles for any deliveries that were missed. A more last resort option to find your missing package is to ask your local Post Office for the GPS location scan information. When you give them the package’s tracking number, USPS will be able to tell you the GPS location where they scanned and delivered the package, down to a 6-foot radius. This just might be able to help narrow down your search area!

If these steps don’t result in finding your missing package, call USPS directly at 1 (800) 275-8777 or call UPS at 1-800-PICK UPS. Follow the prompts until you get to the prompt where you are asked for your tracking number.  Press 1 for tracking a package or say “Tracking.” Say “Representative” and you will be transferred to a representative. Report the instance and steps you took with the local branch to their corporate office.

If this still does not resolve your issue and if you feel your package has been stolen, you may file a police report on the missing package to start a criminal investigation on the package handlers and/or the local thief.

Ideally, no package would ever be mismarked by the postal service. When a package is marked as delivered, we (and all insurers) can only assume that the complete package to be actually located at the final destination. So, when a package is lost in transit and still marked as “delivered”, it (understandably) causes confusion for the receiver.

Unfortunately, the only way to get an insurance claim from these mismarked packages is for the receiver to acquire a claim number from their postal service method chosen during checkout, if the method chosen has insurance with the postal service. This requires the receiver to confront the postal service in-person with any evidence of their claim. As the senders, we have no pull in these instances, nor can we file an insurance claim on packages marked as “delivered” by the postal service. These instances are not covered by any insurance we purchase or cover the packages with. If you have any questions regarding your claim refunds, call USPS directly at 1 (800) 275-8777 (USPS claims refund accounting department is 1-866-974-2733) or call UPS at 1-800-PICK UPS.

If USPS or UPS (whichever method the customer chooses) does NOT acknowledge a missing package or contents with a “delivered” status, this causes even more frustration. The only explanation left is theft. This requires legal action with law enforcement to begin a criminal investigation. It is pertinent to resolve any theft problem at the root – for you and your community’s security. In a perfect world, we would never have a problem with stolen packages or shrinkage. However, postal theft is a common concern with all online retail businesses.

If theft wasn’t a common issue, companies would be able to cover all claims of stolen packages marked as “delivered” and these costs would be negligible, but unfortunately this is still a huge problem. If a business did offer to cover all claims of stolen packages marked as “delivered”, it would be an extremely easy way for scammers and postal thieves to drive up costs for everyone.

If you have a concern with stealing at your location, we advise that you install security cameras and alarms to catch and report or deter any perpetrators, or purchase a P.O. box address to pick up your packages directly from the post office. These are the only ways to best avoid theft issues without driving up costs exponentially.

We deeply apologize for these instances out of our control and our inability to resolve theft or mismarked package issues ourselves. Thank you for supporting Perma-Earth to feed your bath and body needs.

International Packages: When using a mail forwarder, we can only be held responsible for lost or damaged packages BEFORE they arrive at the mail forwarder location in the USA, after this point we can NOT be held responsible for international packages getting lost or damaged. Please speak with your mail forwarder about these instances.

Perma-Earth LLC also cannot take responsibility for any customs fees, delays, or postal rejection issues for overseas or international shipments (including Canada). We do our best to prevent this by filling the customs forms as acceptable as possible to our knowledge. Postal rejections often depend entirely upon the individual opinions of the customs employees and their interpretations of the ever-changing international customs rules. This is the main reason why we suggest a mail forwarder since it is there job to be fully updated to comply with international shipping rules. Therefore, our protection offered is only for our United States jurisdiction and cannot cover instances with international customs regulations. We highly recommend using a mail forwarder if you are experiencing these issues.

On the same note, please make sure the items you are trying to ship will be accepted in the location and postal service selected before checkout. International customers who are not using a mail forwarder need to keep themselves up to date with their country’s or province’s current regulations. Mail requirements may change flippantly depending upon each country and customs locations. Therefore we can not be held responsible for any rejections and we cannot refund shipping costs on rejected mail. Rejected mail refunds will be subject to a -10% restock fee if it is returned back to us successfully, minus the shipping costs which are non-refundable. We apologize for any inconvenience.

We do NOT offer online exchanges (for new or used products). We only process acceptable returns for online orders.

We accept returns on any non-used items successfully given back to us in original condition within 30 days of purchase or delivery date shown on tracking, this return is subject to a -15% restock fee and buyer also must cover return shipping costs. Returns are refunded to payment method associated with the order and do not include the order’s original shipping costs or handling and shipping protection fees, shipped packages’ shipping costs are non-refundable. There are some items that returns are NOT acceptable such as gift certificates, digital downloads, and wholesale applications.

Thank you for understanding our return and refund policies.

Please review our return/refund process in the tab below.

Why do we charge a -15% restock fee on all successful returns?  Card processing companies do not refund processing fees once an order has been placed. Our team members have also processed, packaged, labeled, taken the order to the post office, and now have to process the refund and restock. Our restock fee helps to somewhat cover the labor and fuel costs. When we correctly fulfilled the order as requested and as described without any manufacturer errors, we will not drive up the costs for all to cover these return instances. Shopping online has risks for both consumers and sellers alike, therefore this policy helps both to share the costs.

Why do we not refund the shipping costs nor pay for the shipping on all successful returns? When a customer purchases a shipping method during checkout, they are essentially paying us to pay the postal service what is owed to ship the item. When we pay and ship the item out, the postal service will not refund their services for shipping the item. When we correctly fulfilled the order as requested and as described without any manufacturer errors, we will not drive up the costs for all to cover these return instances. Shopping online has risks for both consumers and sellers alike, therefore this policy helps both to share the costs.

If a customer returns a product that is unacceptable or past the 30-day window, what happens? We will return the package or products to the customer at no extra charge to ship the items back to the customer at the address it was shipped from.

We do NOT offer online exchanges (for new or used products). We only process acceptable returns for online orders.

Return any unused products within 30 days of in-store purchase or package delivery date for any reason. If you feel that your item has a manufacturer defect, please contact us first.

We cannot resell any item in an obviously used condition, even if “only a little” was USED, therefore we cannot accept the return.

Successful unused returns are refunded back to the original payment method associated with the order and shipped returns will be subject to a -15% restock fee, minus the shipping cost, handling fees, and any other measurable value loss from original condition. Return shipment costs are covered by the customer.

View the instructions on how to start a return on unused products below.

Expired?

• Please note that the dates on all products price tags are their MANUFACTURE date – NOT their expiration date! If a product has an expiration date or a best used by date, that information will need to be calculated from the best by information provided on the product’s label or in the product’s listing (where the product is located in our online shop).
• If you still think you received an expired or defective product, please contact us with a photo of the date on your price tag and your name and/or order number.

No Exchanges

• Unused online purchases may not be exchanged by mail, but they may be returned. Our return process is listed below. Once a successful return is completed, you will be refunded to your original payment method minus a -15% restock fee, detailed at the bottom of this tab.

How To Return – 3 STEPS

STEP 1: Properly re-package your items and your order return details.

• If you have not opened your package yet, you may take it straight back to the mail carrier for a FREE “Return to Sender” request and contact us with your order return information (order number and reason for return) – that’s it!
• If your package has been opened, place your items back into the same box or in another suitable sturdy box — the one your order came in can easily be reused — along with any necessary packing materials. Remove any prior shipping label information from used boxes. If your item came tightly wrapped, taped, and securely packaged, please be sure to do the same when you return the item. We are not responsible for improperly packaged returns that are damaged or lost during return shipment.
• Enclose your order number or name, along with information about why you are requesting a refund or contact us with this information. If your return is sent back without this information, we will not be able to process your refund.

STEP 2: Take your package to the carrier of your choice.

Mail your package to the following address:

• Perma-Earth LLC
  Attn. Returns.
  780 W Green St.
  Scottsburg, IN 47170

• Be sure that your return is properly insured and trackable so you’ll be able to guarantee that your package arrives as expected.
• You will be responsible for the shipping costs of your return.
• Keep the tracking information until your return has been processed.

STEP 3: Please allow up to 21 business days from shipment for us to receive your return and process your return, detailed below.

Once we successfully receive your return, we’ll send you a Return Order Confirmation email with all the details.

How Will I Be Refunded?

All successful returns will be processed back to the original payment method subject to a -15% restock fee within 7 business days of receiving return. Refund amounts will not include shipping, protection, or handling charges – these are non-refundable. All applicable promotions, discounts, offers, free items (as part of a qualifying purchase) and coupons granted at the time of purchase will be prorated and applied to the refund amount.

We cannot accept returns nor process refunds for used products. Please read more about the most common reasons for used product refund requests in the tab below.

Why do we charge a 15% restock fee on all successful returns?

Card processing companies do not refund their processing fees once an order has been placed, which costs up to 5% of the charge. Our team members have also processed, packaged, labeled, taken the order to the post office, and now have to process the refund and restock. Our restock fee helps to somewhat cover the labor and fuel costs. When we correctly fulfilled the order as requested and as described without any manufacturer errors, we will not drive up the costs for all to cover these return instances.

If a customer returns a product that is unacceptable or past the 30-day window, what happens?

We will return the package or products to the customer at no extra charge to ship the items back to the customer at the address it was shipped from.

We do NOT offer online exchanges (for new or used products). We only process acceptable returns for online orders.

We cannot accept returns, nor process refunds or replacements, for USED products – unless that item is defective due to a manufacturer error (personal preference dissatisfactions or unique sensitivities and reactions are NOT manufacturer errors).

Please read more about these most common used product refund requests below and why we do not accept them as eligible for refunds for used products.

If a product is inferior in some way other than personal preference dissatisfaction or a unique sensitivity/reaction, please contact us immediately with your name and order number through our smart phone at (812) 414-9735 or email us at contact@perma-earth.com with photographic proof of evidence if applicable.
