Do you sell my information? Why do you ask for my email address? 

First and foremost, we absolutely will never sell our customers information to anyone, for any reason. That being said, while customers are not required to supply their email addresses with their orders, doing so can be very helpful to you.  As we are an online retailer, we are equipped to keep you informed of every step of your order’s progress, from placement to shipping.  If you provide your email address with your order, you will receive the following email messages: 1.) an email confirmation of your order, 2.) an email notice providing the tracking number for shipment of your order, and 3.) one final email query, after you have received your purchase, asking you to assess your satisfaction with the product and your ordering experience with our company.
At no time will we ever share your order or contact information with any outside parties, nor will we ever contact you ourselves with anything that is not 100% directly related to your individual order unless you request Zearth.com updates upon checkout.  A major part of our founder's strategies for setting us apart from the competition is to offer the absolute best service to be found anywhere online, and we guard your privacy as if it were our own.

When Will My Order Arrive?

Every product on our site has an estimated Lead Time — the number of business days it takes for an item to be processed and prepared for shipment at the warehouse. To provide you with the greatest selection on the internet, we ship from warehouses all over the country. Each lead time varies based on many different factors. Some warehouses stock items that can be shipped the same day or within 24 hours. Others items require a longer time (e.g. 2-4 weeks). Each product page on our site includes the estimated Lead Time below the shipping method: "Usually ships in ________ ," to give you an idea how quickly your order will leave the warehouse.

For Small Parcel shipments, delivery usually takes between 1 and 6 business days (except for USPS which ships in 1-10 business days) after your order is picked up from the warehouse. For expedited services such as 3-day, 2nd Day or Next Day Air, your order’s travel time is locked in to the given speed you select after the item leaves the warehouse. You should remember that the estimated Lead Time still applies before the item ships out. Be sure to consult the product’s Lead Time before you order with expedited shipping, and call us if you have any questions or concerns.

For Truck Freight shipments, delivery usually takes between 3 and 10 days from when your order ships. For residential deliveries, you will be contacted for an appointment as soon as your order arrives at the local terminal. For commercial deliveries, no appointment will be made. If you need to make one, please contact us.

For White Glove shipments, delivery usually takes between 1 and 4 weeks from the time the items leave the warehouse. Your order will travel through a nationwide network of professional moving companies who will handle your item(s) with the utmost care. You will be contacted for a delivery appointment when your order reaches the delivery agent.

Back to FAQ Page

Most products ship via common carriers such as UPS, FedEx, and DHL/ Airborne.  Large items typically require freight shipping, for which our manufacturers and distributors use a variety of national and regional trucking companies such as Old Dominion and Yellow Freight.  Check your order status page for tracking information, which will list the shipping type and carrier, or Contact Customer Care team and we will be happy to provide you with more information.

Is there anything that might delay my order?

Customers making payment via eCheck, using purchase orders, or mailing in personal checks must allow approximately ten business days for such payments to clear our Accounting division.

While delays with orders are rare, they sometimes occur in the event of out-of-stock, discontinued, or backordered item situations with our manufacturers and/ or distributors. Our Customer Care team stays on top of these matters, but infrequently such scenarios crop up.  If this is the case with an item you have ordered, our stock-status specialist will contact you regarding your options.

In very rare instances natural disasters could affect the availability of certain items.

How long will it be before I receive my order?

Orders placed Monday-Friday between the hours of 8AM and 5PM Mountain Time will be processed the same business day.  Orders placed after 5PM Mountain Time will be processed the following business day.  All ComfortChannel.com products have their respective “lead times” posted in the “Product Facts” sections of each product page.  A “lead time” is the amount of time the manufacturer or distributor must have between receiving and shipping your order.  In some instances, specialized products that are tailor-made or otherwise handcrafted may incur longer lead times to allow for particular attention to details.  To estimate the delivery time for your order, follow this general equation: lead time + approximate shipping time = time to arrival.  In most cases, products take 2-6 business days to arrive, after their respective, stated lead times.  For example, if the product you ordered has a 2 business day lead time and is shipping from California to New York (5-6 business days), your estimated delivery time is 7-8 business days from the day you received order confirmation.

I have not received any email confirmation or tracking from you.  What happened?

If you provided us with your email address but have not received email from us, please check your email program settings.  Your email program may be diverting emails from us to your spam or bulk mail folders!  We have seen this sort of thing happen particularly with customers who have AOL and Earthlink email addresses.  In general, email coming from us shows the “sender” name as “Orders Account” and comes from orders@zearth.com or from any of our representatives who also have “@zearth.com” in their email addresses.
