We offer shipping to the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia, Singapore, and Hong Kong. 

Carbon Neutral Shipping

We measure how much carbon it takes to ship a Hitch Bottle and Cup. We then offset those emissions by removing an equal amount of carbon from the atmosphere through our certified partner, Climate Neutral.

 

Shipping within the United States

 

Shipping Costs 

For US retail orders over $85, we offer free UPS Ground shipping within the United States, excluding Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and other US territories.

Shipping Speed 

Orders require 1-2 business days to process before shipping. Once your order has been fulfilled and shipped, in most cases you should receive your order within 3 to 5 business days from its ship date. For shipments to Alaska, Hawaii, Military, and U.S. Territory addresses, you should receive your order within 5 to 15 business days from its ship date.

Due to COVID-19, like many businesses, we are experiencing occasional shipping delays and the above times are our best estimates at this time.

For Pre-orders, you are reserving a product that is currently being manufactured or is in transit to our fulfillment centers. If you order today, your payment will be processed immediately, but your product will not be shipped until it is ready. Our current estimates are that pre-orders placed after June 1st, 2023, will ship within 30-45 days from the date of your order. These are only estimates, and may change due to any manufacturing, shipping, or carrier delays. You can cancel anytime to get a complete refund, including shipping, until the product is shipped.

APO / FPO Shipping 

Hitch offers shipping for orders going to any APO / FPO address. The rates are variable based on your location and the size of your order.
