Shipping Policy

Baratza’s goal is to provide high quality service and we put our utmost effort to provide accurate and prompt fulfillment. Please take a moment to review this policy in case you’re unsure about our mailing options and want to know what to expect regarding delivery and receipt of your order.

TRANSIT TIMES NOT GUARANTEED (Novel COVID-19)

Effective March 24, 2020 and until further notice, the UPS Service Guarantee is suspended for all U.S. origin shipments (U.S. Domestic and International) at any service level. As the effects of the Coronavirus impact our infrastructure, we will continue to seek guidance from local, state, and national government entities to ensure that we fully align with their regulations while continuing to meet the service levels you have come to expect. We are committed to continue operating globally except where constrained by government restrictions. Please visit the UPS website for more information.

UPDATE MAY 22, 2020 – Within the United States, UPS is designated among the government’s critical infrastructure and, therefore, continues to operate. The Novel Coronavirus pandemic has created unprecedented complexities, which have required us to constantly reassess our operations. Our highest priority is to help ensure the health and safety of our employees, customers, and suppliers. Read more about the Impact of the Coronavirus on our Service Guarantee here.

USPS products and packages may require more time to be delivered due to limited transportation availability as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 impacts. Read more about USPS® Coronavirus Updates: Expected Delivery Changes here.

Carriers and Options

Our current shipping providers (Carriers) are UPS and USPS. The specific available options provided by each will show up at checkout and before you finish placing your order. You are responsible for choosing the appropriate shipping method that best fits your desired timing for your delivery. In general, shipping carrier timing estimates are our best effort and not guaranteed.

Baratza is not a carrier service and as such has little to no control over packages once they leave our facility. Please see separate shipping policies for your carrier of choice. All of our products and parts are shipped from our warehouse and HQ in Bellevue, WA 98005 US.
