Shipping & Returns

Shipping

What are my shipping options?

For domestic customers, Awesome Surfboards uses USPS and FedEx to ship all packages.

For international customers, Awesome Surfboards uses the United States Postal Service to ship all packages. Your options are First-Class Mail International (transit time of 1 to 4 weeks) and Express Mail International (transit time of 4 to 6 business days). Please note, First-Class Mail does not provide tracking information. If you would like to be able to track the progress of your delivery, please select Express Mail.

When will my order be shipped? When will it arrive?

Your order will be shipped within 3 - 4 business days. Please note that our offices are closed on Saturday and Sunday. All orders are shipped from Awesome Surfboards’s in San Francisco, California. Please note, for consumer protection all orders are subject for review. On occasion, this may cause a slight delay in processing your order. Your patience is greatly appreciated.

What are my shipping fees?

Shipping fees are determined based on the weight of the item(s) you’ve purchased, shipping destination and shipping method (see “What are my shipping options?” above). Once you begin the checkout process your shipping rate options will be displayed in the Shipping Method section.

International customers please note: Shipments outside of the U.S. may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are the responsibility of the recipient. The carrier will collect these charges at the time of delivery. Please be aware that shipping rates displayed on awesomesurfboards.com do not include such international taxes or duties. Contact the customs office in the destination country for information about any applicable duties or taxes. If an order is placed on awesomesurfboards.com and then refused, you will be responsible for the original shipping costs, as well as any duties, taxes and/or customs charges that were incurred in shipping the package. These amounts will be subtracted from your merchandise refund. Awesome Surfboards has made every effort to minimize our international shipping charges. We only charge our cost for these services. We do not make any profit on our shipping services to international customers. Also, we are required by law to disclose the full value of the package contents and cannot alter this value.

Do you ship to PO boxes or APO/FPO addresses?

Yes.
