Refunds

Approved refunds will be issued to the original payment method used for purchase.

Please allow 5-10 business days after approval for the refund to appear on your account, depending on your financial institution.

Shipping charges are non-refundable unless the return is the result of our error or a damaged product.

Cancellations

Once an order is placed it cannot be cancelled.

Lost or Stolen Packages

The Salty Dog Candle Company is not responsible for lost or stolen packages that have been marked as delivered by the shipping carrier.

If you believe your package has been lost, please contact the carrier directly and file a claim if applicable.

Natural Variations

Because our candles are handcrafted in small batches, slight variations in color, appearance, and fragrance may occur. These natural variations are not considered defects and are not eligible for refunds or exchanges.
