Will My Halloween Costume Arrive in Time?

Will My Halloween Costume Arrive in Time?

This is the most common question we get every October — and we want to make sure you're not scrambling the night before.

When Should I Order?

We recommend ordering at least 7-10 days before Halloween to give standard shipping enough time. The closer you get to October 31st, the more you should consider expedited shipping.

Standard Shipping

Standard shipping typically takes 5-7 business days after your order ships. Most orders ship within 1-2 business days of being placed. During peak season (October), processing may take slightly longer.

Expedited Shipping

If you're ordering in late October, select 2-day or overnight shipping at checkout to guarantee delivery in time. Expedited orders placed before noon typically ship the same day.

Order Cutoff Dates (October)

  • Standard shipping: Order by October 21st
  • 2-day shipping: Order by October 28th
  • Overnight shipping: Order by October 29th

These are estimates based on typical carrier transit times. Delays can occur during peak season.

Track Your Order

Once your order ships you'll receive a tracking number by email. Use it to follow your package's progress in real time.
