Once you place an order, you will receive an order confirmation email from us. Please note that the delivery window time does not include weekends/public holidays. 

Inside the Valley (Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Bhaktapur): your package will be delivered to you within 2-3 days of the confirmation email being sent from our end. 

Outside the Valley: your package will be delivered to you within 2-5 days of the confirmation email being sent from our end (dependent on location/weather conditions/other unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control). 

3. How do I return your packaging?
Motivated by the circular economy model, our packaging is centered around the concept of “Return. Reuse. Reduce. Recycle. Repeat.” We intend to design out waste from our packaging by closing the loop. As a company, we have taken the first step in becoming more sustainable. You, as a consumer, have the power to be an active participant of change too. You can read more on our packaging and sustainability efforts here. 

  1. On the Checkout page (the same page on which you will enter your information and details), you will find a question regarding our packaging. Please select the first option: “Yes, I will return the packaging bag with your delivery person”. 
  2. When our delivery person arrives at your door, please collect all the items you ordered, then return our packaging right away with our delivery person. Once we receive the packaging back from you, we will reuse it: we commit to reusing it over and over again so often and to such an extent that the bag will have tiny holes peeping through.

However, if your preferred choice is to keep the packaging to reuse it yourself, you can buy the packaging bag for a cost of Rs. 260.

4. Where do you deliver to?
We deliver inside the valley to Kathmandu, Lalitpur and Bhaktapur; and outside the valley, to all major cities across Nepal.
