Return Policy
Last updated:
Handyrcandles is committed to customer satisfaction. This Return Policy outlines the terms and conditions for returns, refunds, and cancellations of our services.
Return Period
Due to the nature of our custom-designed photo zone services, standard return periods apply differently than retail products. For services that have not yet been rendered or installed, you may cancel your booking within 7 days of making your reservation, subject to the conditions outlined below.
For completed installations or services that have already been delivered, returns are not applicable as our services are performed and customized to your specific event requirements.
Return Conditions
To be eligible for a return or cancellation, the following conditions must be met:
- Cancellation must be requested at least 14 days before the scheduled event date
- The service must not have been installed or rendered
- Any custom design work must not have been completed
- You must provide a valid reason for cancellation
- Cancellation request must be submitted in writing via email or through our contact form
Late cancellations (within 14 days of the event) may be subject to cancellation fees as outlined in your service agreement.
Cost of Return Shipping
As we provide installation services rather than physical products for return, return shipping costs are not applicable to our business model. However, if we have provided any physical materials or props that need to be collected, we will handle the collection process.
In cases where cancellation is requested after materials have been prepared or custom items have been created specifically for your event, reasonable costs for materials and preparation time may be deducted from any refund.
Return Process
To initiate a return or cancellation:
- Contact us via email at contact@handyrcandles.world or through our contact form
- Provide your order or booking reference number
- State the reason for cancellation or return request
- We will review your request and respond within 3 business days
- If approved, we will process your refund according to the refund procedure outlined below
We reserve the right to request additional information to process your return or cancellation request.
Non-Returnable Items
The following items and services are non-returnable and non-refundable:
- Services that have already been installed or rendered
- Custom-designed photo zones that have been created specifically for your event
- Services cancelled within 48 hours of the scheduled event date
- Consultation fees for services already provided
- Any custom props or materials created specifically for your event after the cancellation period
- Services where installation has commenced

You may cancel your order under the following conditions:
- More than 14 days before event: Full refund minus any processing fees (if applicable)

Refund Procedure
If your cancellation or return request is approved, we will process your refund as follows:

- Refunds will be processed to the original payment method used for the transaction
- Processing time for refunds is typically 5-10 business days, depending on your payment provider
