We believe shipping should be simple, sustainable, and fair. That’s why we offer FREE shipping on all orders—no hidden fees, no surprises at checkout. Shipping costs on small orders can be 25-50% of the price of your order, but we are committed to covering those costs so you only pay what you can. By customer request, we have also added an option to "pitch in for shipping" at checkout for $6—completely optional, but always appreciated.
We ship plastic-free using compostable and biodegradable materials, so your order arrives safely without adding to the waste stream. And we exclusively ship with USPS, supporting the only carrier that serves every address in the country while keeping carbon emissions lower than private carriers.
Sustainable, transparent, and fair—just how we think shipping should be. 🚛♻️💚
Why We Ship With USPS: Supporting People, Not Just Packages
At Half Wild Arts, we carefully choose every ingredient, material, and process that goes into our products—and that includes how we ship them to you. That’s why we’re committed to using the United States Postal Service (USPS) for all our online orders.
A Service for the People
Unlike private shipping companies, USPS isn’t a for-profit business. It was founded in 1775, before the Declaration of Independence was even signed, to ensure that all Americans—no matter where they lived—had access to reliable mail service. Today, it remains a public institution designed to serve the people, not shareholders.
USPS delivers everywhere, from bustling cities to the most remote rural areas (including ours!), without surge pricing or extra fees based on location. No other shipping company does that.
Why This Matters
Supporting USPS means supporting a service that:
📬 Keeps small businesses thriving by offering affordable, flat-rate shipping
📬 Provides stable jobs with fair wages to hundreds of thousands of workers
📬 Connects communities, ensuring that even rural customers receive essential mail and packages
📬 Stands for democracy, allowing people to vote by mail, receive medications, and stay connected
Our Commitment
When you place an order with us, you’re not just supporting a small, farm-based business—you’re also investing in a system that has served the American people for nearly 250 years. By choosing USPS, we’re helping keep that tradition alive.
So, the next time you see that little blue and white box on your doorstep, know that it represents something bigger: community, fairness, and a commitment to keeping essential services accessible to all.
Thank you for being part of this mission with us. 💛🌿
