  • Shipping Cost

US Destinations (does not include Puerto Rico or other US territories):
Not withstanding the method of shipping (see How We Ship), shipping charges are based on the weight of your order and its destination. Our shipping rates are automatically calculated real-time at the end of each purchase session, prior to checkout. Since the shipping charge depends on the products you order, you must create your order to find out your exact shipping charge. Based upon your indicated arrival date, Babies Travel Lite will determine what method of shipping needs to be used to have your package waiting for you at your destination, and will show you the shipping charges for the designated shipping method.

International Destinations (including Puerto Rico and other US territories):
Not withstanding the method of shipping (see How We Ship), shipping charges are based on the weight of your order and its destination. International shipping is very expensive. Our shipping rates are automatically calculated real-time at the end of each purchase session, prior to checkout. Since the shipping charge depends on the products you order, you must create your order to find out your exact shipping charge.

  • Shipment Timing

US Destinations (does not include Puerto Rico or other US territories):
Orders being sent via FedEx Ground are, generally, timed to arrive at your destination two days before your scheduled arrival date. We schedule your order to arrive in advance to ensure we have time to correct any FedEx shipping problems. We will make every effort to FedEx a replacement order if your order experiences delivery problems. On the rare occasion when this happens our customers are not aware there was ever a problem because you receive your order on time.

If you are traveling to a vacation rental or any destination where no one will be available in advance to receive your order, date specific and delivery by appointment are shipping options offered by FedEx in many locations. Please make sure you let Babies Travel Lite know if your package can’t be received before your arrival date so we can make the necessary special arrangements.

Orders being sent via FedEx Express because your order date is close to your arrival date will be shipped as soon as possible to give Babies Travel Lite the most time to correct any FedEx shipping problems.

International Destinations (including Puerto Rico and other US territories):
Shipment timing for international orders is country dependent. Babies Travel Lite has extensive international shipping experience and makes decisions about the timing of international orders based upon that experience. You can place your order online with confidence; the Babies Travel Lite online order system will make the appropriate shipping selection. You will be contacted by a Babies Travel Lite representative if there are any concerns about your order arriving at your destination before your arrival date because of individual country requirements or other customs issues.


  • Ship It Home

Always looking for ways to make traveling with small children easier, we found a way to help you make your trip home as easy as your trip to your destination. You don’t worry about having to pack your extra supplies and you don’t need to think about having to leave them because you won’t have room in the suitcase. Babies Travel Lite offers a great service option called "Ship It Home."

Use "Ship It Home" to ship any un-used supplies and any other items you don’t want to carry in your suitcases (dirty clothes, souvenirs, etc.) back to your billing address. You can select "Ship It Home" during the check-out process if you are traveling to a hotel, resort, spa, vacation rental, or private home.
