UPS 2nd Day and Next Day have guaranteed delivery commitment times up to 9 PM depending on package volume. However, winter storms and strong thunderstorms may cause delays that are not covered by UPS or USPS.

We process orders Monday - Friday. We are closed on Saturday and Sunday.

Please note: DeRoyal and DonJoy (DJO) items have a 1 to 2-day delay before the product is shipped out.

UPS Shipping Service Policy

Next Day Air Service
UPS Next Day Air delivery is guaranteed by UPS as long as there are no weather conditions, flight delays, or other circumstances beyond their control that impact delivery. While we ship your order promptly to meet Next Day Air standards, the delivery guarantee is subject to UPS's terms and conditions.

  • Next Day Air: If your Next Day Air package is delivered late, you will receive a $10 refund
  • 2nd Day Air: If your 2nd Day Air package is delivered late, you will receive a $5 refund

To request a late delivery refund, please contact our customer service team with your order number and tracking information. We will verify the delivery date and process your refund promptly.

Our Commitment
OrthoTape is committed to shipping all orders as quickly as possible. We cannot control carrier delays, but we will always work with you to ensure your satisfaction with our service.

Returns & Exchanges:

We do not offer direct exchanges. If you need a different size or item, we recommend placing a new order right away — you do not need to wait for your return to be processed first. This is the fastest way to get the correct product to you. Simply submit a separate return request for the original item through your order status page.

Products must be returned within 60 days of purchase and in new, unused condition. Start a return here: https://orthotape.com/pages/returns

Delivery and Package Responsibility:

USPS and UPS use GPS location services to identify where a product is delivered. Customers are responsible for ensuring their porch or address is a safe location to leave a package. If an order shows it was delivered by USPS or UPS, a claim must be filed with them to get a replacement or refund. If USPS or UPS deny the claim, we cannot honor the replacement or refund of the product as GPS shows a confirmed delivery. At that point, you will need to report the issue of theft to the police.

Customers must inspect all packages within 5 days and report any suspected damage during shipping. After this time period, we reserve the right to not honor any warranty claims of damage during shipping. Please provide a clear photo of the damage along with a photo of the packaging to file a claim. No refund or replacement will be provided if the packaging or product is discarded.

Restocking Fees:

Items shipped with free shipping will have a 20% restocking fee, as shipping is not actually free, and we incur a cost from the shipping company. This cost will be deducted from the refund.

All EXOS, DeROYAL, and DJO Products have a 20% restock fee per manufacturer. The manufacturer charges us 20% to return these items.
