Question: I have not received my order, what’s next?
Answer: Depending on your choice of shipping will determine if you have tracking. Our free shipping is with mail delivery with Canada Post and the United States Postal Service (USPS) and our free letter-mail delivery does not offer tracking. Typically most orders are delivered between 7 to 12 business days. (Business days refers to Monday to Friday and does not include the day it was considered shipped).

Example: An order placed Thursday the 3rd might be ready to leave on the 5th (Saturday) but won’t actually leave until Monday, the 7th. Then you can expect your order 7 to 12 business days starting on the Tuesday the 8th and an estimated delivery window of Mar 16-23.
Alternatively, if you upgrade your shipping on checkout to Shipping with Tracking, you will get your order quicker and your order will get assigned a tracking number. Delivery times will vary based on your location and delivery services being offered in your area. Stinky Lockers reserves the right to select the carrier for courier but tracking numbers are assigned on all upgraded shipping orders.
Question: What if it’s been longer than 12 business days delivery for the free shipping? What’s next?
Answer: Canada Post & USPS mail delivery does not offer a guarantee on delivery times. Throughout the year, delivery times will vary based on the volume of mail being processed. Occasionally, weather and road closures can also delay deliveries. We appreciate your patience during busy times and understand it can be frustrating waiting for your order. Plan ahead and order as early as possible so you can take advantage of free delivery. Alternatively, you do have the option of the shipping upgrade with tracking if you are running short on time.
In the event your order has taken longer than the “estimated” time, we ask for your patience. Please reach out and let us know it has not yet arrived by email to sales@stinkylockers.com.

Big League Stick Label - Frequently Asked Questions
Question: How do you apply the sticker?
Answer: No special tools are required. The following steps will ensure your Big League Sticker will last the life of your stick!
- Ensure the stick is clean and dry. Each label is shipped with an alcohol cleaning swab! The stick may also be cleaned with a clean paper towel saturated with isopropyl alcohol (IPA). If using 99% IPA mix it in a ratio of 2 parts water to 1 part IPA. If using rubbing alcohol, do not dilute it.
- Wipe with a lint free paper towel before the IPA evaporates from the stick. As the paper towel becomes dirty, discard it. A dirty towel does not remove dirt.
- Make sure the stick is completely dry.
