Shipping

We do our best to fulfill orders within 48 hours (if all items are in stock). Shipping stops at 1 pm PT daily.

We do not ship on Saturday and Sunday. Orders placed over the weekend will ship the following Monday (if all items are in stock).

Shipping in the USA

For shipments in the USA, we use USPS and UPS. If your address is a P.O. Box, we will ship via USPS. UPS does not accept P.O. Boxes. Once shipped, all packages can be tracked through the link in your confirmation email or by logging into your account on our website.

Express Shipments

We cannot guarantee next day fulfillment. Please also note that UPS Next Day Air and 2nd Day Air shipments are not delivered on weekends, and weekend days should not be counted in the estimated delivery date. If you have an urgent need for an order, please contact us directly.

Local Pickup

If you’d like to pick up your order at our warehouse in Torrance, CA, please select Local Pickup at checkout. Once we receive the order and it is ready to be picked up, we will send a confirmation email with further instructions. Please note that pick up orders cannot be modified on site.

Taxes

Taxes will only be charged on orders with a California, Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, Virginia, or Washington shipping address.

Tariffs

We have implemented a tariff surcharge on orders shipped within the United States. This surcharge represents the tariff cost impact. The surcharge is clearly indicated on the relevant product pages and in your cart at checkout. To learn more, click here.

Shipping Outside the USA

All international shipments are shipped via DHL Express, which generally takes 5-7 days depending on the destination. Please note that we do not accept shipment via freight forwarders. If you would like to ship on your own DHL, UPS, or FedEx account, please reach out to [email protected].

Duties and Taxes

Please know that you are responsible for the customs duty and taxes that apply in your country. The prices on our website, including the shipping costs, do not cover the customs duty and taxes.

Returns

We do not offer refunds or exchanges for products that have been modified from their original state.

Return Policy

30 Day Return Policy – Unused Products

Returns are only accepted within 30 days of the date of purchase. To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging.

To process your return, we require the invoice from your original order. You will be responsible for shipping costs. If the product is received by us in unused and undamaged condition and in its original packaging, we will refund your purchase.

Several types of goods are exempt from being returned, such as gift cards and downloadable software products. These goods are identified on the website and during the ordering process as being non-returnable.

90 Day Exchange Policy – Defective Products

If you suspect a product defect, please report it.

Defective products may only be exchanged within 90 days of purchase. In order to process your exchange, we will need your order number, description of your setup (including photos if available), and any other information about your use of the product that may help us understand the potential defect.

In the event that a product is determined to be defective due to a manufacturer error or defective materials, we will repair or exchange the product as needed. If Blue Robotics determines that repair or replacement of a defective product is not practical, we will provide a refund.

Damaged in Shipment

Be sure to inspect your product once you receive it. Any damage from shipping must be reported to Blue Robotics within 14 days of receipt of the product.

If you receive your product and it has been damaged during shipment, please let us know!

Product Change Notifications

Blue Robotics Product Change Notifications (PCNs) provide advance notice of revisions that may affect product integration, compatibility, or performance. These updates cover design changes, critical firmware updates, product discontinuations (EOL), and any modifications that could impact form, fit, or function.
