IN-STORE PICKUP

In-store pickup is available for local orders at our LGD and UPTOWN locations.

To select in store pickup, scroll down on your cart page PRIOR to check out. There are two options to select, and select pickup. A form with instructions will appear for you to submit a pickup request to us. Please include the full name and email that you will use later when checking out. ALL SHIPPING COSTS WILL BE REFUNDED AFTER FULFILLMENT. Once we receive your request we will send you a confirmation email with instructions. The store you selected for pickup will call or email you when your order is ready. If you would like to inquire about your orders status, email shipping@dirtycoast.com. Please don't call the store. They won't have any info on the order to give you. 

NOTE: Orders made online for pick-up are still online orders and are processed in the order received along with all other online orders. They are fulfilled at our warehouse location and sent over to the stores. Please wait until the store calls to go and pickup your order. If you go to pick it up early, they may not have it, and it will create confusion.

Pickup Orders will be contacted the day the order arrives at the store. If a customer is not spoken to directly over the phone, they will be emailed and notified that the order is ready. Orders will be held for 30 days, after which, customers will received a final notice phone call and or an email. If an order is not picked up after 30 days, the order will be restocked, and is not eligible for refund.
