One of our core beliefs here at Pomeroy 142 is that it's possible to provide quality candles that benefit you and have low environmental impact at prices that make sense.
We strive to be as minimally invasive as possible to our environment. We make that happen through the best possible ingredients that have the lowest impact on the environment, packaging that is either made from recycled materials or can be recycled (and you'll never find plastic in your order!), and carbon offsets. On top of that, everything we source is from manufacturers here in the United States.
Running a business by these principles means it's often tricky to keep costs low. Over the past year, we've changed packaging and vessels to align better with our goals and your budgets, and a major highlight was being able to launch more affordable options for everyone. But one thing has been nagging at us: Our shipping prices were still more than we felt was ideal for you, our customer.
So today, we're happy to announce that we've launched new flat-rate shipping options that you'll see in checkout. These rates range from $6 to $9 depending on how many items you purchase.
It comes down to this - regardless of how many items you purchase, you won't pay more than $9 for shipping.
Shipping carriers change their pricing regularly, so we can't say this will be the case forever, but right now you'll save more than ever before.
I am a firm believer that honest feedback is important to the success of a business, so please feel free to email me directly if you have questions or comments about any of our practices.
Cheers!
