Shipping Within the US

Our online store will have a drop down selection for UPS (United Parcel Service) or USPS (US Postal Service) shipping shown. We have a daily UPS & USPS pick up at our office. Our shipping charges are based on the weight of the package and whatever UPS or USPS charges are--we do not add handling fees.

Shipping Outside the US

We ship all over the world via the United States Postal Service (USPS). In fact, a large portion of our business is done outside the US and has been for many years. Our online store will provide you with several shipping options based on the weight of your shipment. Below are the shipping options listed in the order of price:

  • First Class International - For orders that are 4 pounds or less. Shipping can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months, depending on Customs in your country. There is no tracking available with this option. If this option is shown as $0.00 in our online store, it is not available for your order because it's too heavy. If this is the case, please don't choose this option as it will delay your order because we'll need to contact you with shipping options.

  • Priority Mail International - Takes 1-2 weeks to arrive, depending on Customs. There is limited tracking available for this method.

  • Priority Express Mail International - Takes about 3-5 working days, depending on Customs. Tracking is available for this method.

A note about USPS Tracking - It's pretty limited and nothing like UPS or other courier services. Sometimes it doesn't get updated and you may just see the date it left here. This is totally out of our control, but just want to make you aware.

Canadian Customers - Some of you have US shipping addresses that saves you quite a bit of money in postage. We discovered another service that seems like a pretty good option, although we have no experience with it so far. It's called Border KinekPoint and for a small fee, they provide you with a US shipping point. You can find details about it here.

Note: Our epoxy cannot be shipped outside the US at this time.

Glen-L 100% 30-Day Money Back Returns

We want you to be fully satisfied with your Glen-L purchase. If you are not happy with your product, return it to us within 30 days of receipt and we will refund your money, less shipping. We just ask that the product be returned in the condition that it was received and that you pre-pay the return postage. You don't have to give us a reason for the return, but we would sure like to know so we can improve our products and/or service. We value our clients and strive to be the best that we can.

Remember that we are available by phone or email to help you decide which boat to build so you can make the right choice for your needs. Also, we have study plans available for many designs to order prior to purchasing the full plans and patterns. And, our Boatbuilder Forum is an excellent place to ask questions of those who have built our designs and can provide un-biased opinions about our designs.
