FAQ
Why my address is requested?
Your address is requested for billing purposes.
Do I need to add a shipping address or a phone for delivery?
No. There is no need to add a shipping address or a phone for delivery. Paws Hope knows the delivery details from the shelter owner.
Why my address appears as shipping address?
From technical reasons each website require shipping address and billing address. If no shipping address is specifically filled in, billing address is considered automacatically as shipping address. You do not need to worry, all purchases will be delivered anyway to the shelter you choose to buy for and not to you.
When the goods will be delivered to the shelter?
Paws Hope is organising a transport to the shelter each time when:
- 10 bags are reached for Bucharest and Ilfov area (Romania)
- one full pallet (60 bags) is reached for rest of the country (Romania)
- to be discussed and determined for the shelters from other countries (depending on local distributors they choose to order from)
What's happening with the bags purchased if shelter do not reach minimum quantity for delivery?
Bags are never lost, we continue with food appeals until we succeed to fill in the minimum quantity for transport. In some cases Paws Hope will deliver even less if a transport is already arranged for other shelter in the same delivery area. These cases needs to be discussed ad-hoc.
Where I can see the stocks for each shelter?
Stocks for each shelter are manually updated almost daily and can be checked on www.paws-hope.com , push on buttons stocks summary and detailed.
Stocks summary will show you the total received versus missing for next delivery.
