Shipping FAQ
We've tried to cover all the big questions here, but don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
DOES MY ORDER SHIP FREE?
All orders including $175 or more of qualifying products ship for free anywhere in Canada and the US. We also offer free next-business-day shipping within the certain areas of the GTA!
WHAT'S A QUALIFYING PRODUCT?
Ok, we're not trying to be jerks but we do unfortunately need to exclude certain products from free shipping just due to the nature of shipping them and their size.
The only products that don't qualify for free shipping are posters, turntables, speakers, and record storage crates. Everything else qualifies towards the free shipping threshold. That's easy enough, right?
WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THIS EXPRESS LOCAL DELIVERY, HOW DOES THAT WORK?
We offer an express shipping option for local orders with our partner Trexity.
All orders placed before 10:30am are delivered same-day between 4pm-10pm. Order placed 10:30am and onward are delivered next-day - within the hours of 4pm-10pm.
Please note that by default this is a residential service - places of business that are not open at the time of delivery (4-10pm) will be rescheduled as soon as possible.
Please note that shipping to a PO box is not available for this express local service.
Please note this is a courier delivery option and you need to be home to receive the package. If the receiver is not responding and there is no safe place to leave the package, the delivery will fail. Please note that additional charges may apply for re-delivery, or change of address after a failed delivery.
If you're located within delivery range of our same-day and next-day local delivery options, you'll see that option at checkout.
Next-day and same day service is offered only Monday through Friday. Next-day orders placed on Friday after 10:30am and throughout the weekend will be delivered on Monday.
WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR IN-STORE PICKUP?
We offer free in-store pickups at our physical shop at 215 Spadina Ave in Toronto - just select it at checkout and your order will be ready ASAP. Note our store hours (11am-8pm daily), and pay attention to our social media channels for updates on holidays.
Please wait for your pick up confirmation notification before heading down to the shop. If you haven't received your confirmation but would like to pick up, please give us a call at 416-532-0334 and we can do our best to fast-track your order to be ready for pickup.
WHAT IF MY ORDER IS LESS THAN $175?
Shipping for all orders that don't qualify to ship free is a low flat-rate based on your location.
****PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO THE POSTAL STRIKE, WE HAVE HAD TO SUSPEND FLAT RATE SHIPPING IN SOME INSTANCES. SEE CHECKOUT, OR REACH OUT TO SHOP@SONICBOOMMUSIC.COM IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS****
****ALSO DUE TO THE POSTAL STRIKE, FREE SHIPPING TO REMOTE SOME REMOTE DESTINATIONS IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE DUE TO THE HIGH COST OF COURIER SHIPPING****
WHAT ABOUT DUTY & TAXES?
International shipments can sometimes incur duties and taxes. The recipient of any and all goods sold by Sonic Boom is responsible for any and all Customs fees, including taxes, brokerage fees, and any other fees assessed at the border prior to delivery.
WHERE DOES MY ORDER SHIP FROM?
All orders are processed at our shop in Toronto at 215 Spadina Ave.
WHICH CARRIER WILL DELIVER MY ORDER?
All non-local orders in Canada are delivered by Canada Post. GTA customers are able to select Accelerated Next-Day Delivery from our partner Swyft. US orders are delivered by USPS.
