Can I ship to 2 different addresses?
If you are gifting to several girls that live at different locations, it is best to place separate orders so the subscriptions can have their own individual shipping addresses.
My STRONG self(ie) box never arrived. What should I do?
We're here to help call carriers, companies and track down packages, but there is only so much we can do. If the delivery was unsuccessful due to customer error, (such as an incorrectly entered address) we can send a replacement box once the original box is returned to us. There is a $12 service fee to send the replacement box to cover additional shipping costs.
My box says delivered but the recipient did not receive it.
Be sure to look around the house and ask neighbors as there is a good chance it's hiding somewhere (trust us, it happens all the time). If a box is delivered according to your tracking but the recipient didn't get it, our customer care team will do everything in our power to locate it by calling the carrier. Beyond that, unfortunately this is a rare situation that's out of our control, and could be attributable to any number of things, including the package being stolen or lost. We recommend filing a carrier claim, and we'd be happy to do the same on our end!
