Getting you through Lockdown #2
❤️ CURBSIDE PICKUP ❤️
All three TYPE locations are providing curbside pickup during our regular hours of operation. There is no need to call ahead; just knock on the door, take a step back, and we'll take care of the rest
☎️ THE FASTEST WAY TO SHOP ☎️
Call or email the TYPE location nearest you. We'll let you know what's available right away, process payment over the phone, or set it aside for you with an option for contact-less payment upon pickup
If you're hoping to pick up a book within 48 hours, DO NOT order it online - call the store and have it set aside
💻THE EASIEST (AND SAFEST) WAY TO SHOP 💻
Order online! Choose free in-store pickup or flat-rate shipping
Our current turn-around time for in-store pickup is 3-4 business days
Our current turn-around time for shipping and delivery is 7-10 business days
Pickup and shipping times are subject to change (because, pandemic)
Be sure to choose the correct shipping or pickup option - we can make changes if you choose in error, but it will bump your order to the end of the queue
NOTE: If an item is out-of-stock online, it may still be available at one of our locations. CALL US.
🚲 SHIPPING + DELIVERY🚲
Shipping and delivery is available for online orders only - please refer to our shipping policy for rates and shipping times
If you require shipping for items purchased over the phone, contact shop@typebooks.ca and we will do our best to accommodate you
