Chez Milo

Policies

Shipping, returns, terms of sale, legal notice and contact: everything that frames an order with us, on one page.

Shipping

By placing an order on chezmilo.fr you agree to the shipping terms below. Please read them before completing your purchase.

Dispatch time

Orders ship within 24 hours after payment is received. Orders placed before midnight (Paris time) leave the next day.

Delivery time

Once shipped, your order is delivered within 2 to 7 business days. If a delay occurs, we let you know by email.

In line with French consumer law (Code de la consommation, art. L216-1), if the stated delivery time is not met you may ask us to deliver within a reasonable additional period and, failing that, cancel the order for a full refund.

Delivery areas

We deliver to mainland France.

Shipping costs

Shipping is free on every order.

Tracking

As soon as your order ships you receive an email with your tracking number. Please allow up to 48 hours for the first tracking updates to appear.

Canceling or changing an order

You can ask to cancel or change your order at support@chezmilo.fr as long as it has not shipped. Once the parcel has left, the order falls under our return policy: you have 14 days after delivery to exercise your right of withdrawal.

Possible delays

Despite our best efforts, delays can occur during busy periods (sales, holidays) or due to events beyond our control (strikes, severe weather, carrier incidents). We keep you informed by email as soon as we know.

Customs and duties

For deliveries within the European Union there is nothing extra to pay: our prices include VAT. For deliveries outside the EU, customs duties or local taxes may be collected by the carrier and are the recipient's responsibility.

Incorrect address

Please check your address carefully at checkout. If a parcel comes back to us because of an incomplete or incorrect address, we will contact you to arrange a new shipment; re-shipping costs may be charged.

Damaged or lost parcel

If your parcel arrives damaged or does not arrive, write to support@chezmilo.fr with your order number and photos where relevant. We open a claim with the carrier and offer you a replacement or a refund — at no cost to you.

Contact

For any question about your order or its delivery: support@chezmilo.fr. We reply within 24 business hours.

Returns and refunds

By placing an order on chezmilo.fr you agree to the return and refund terms below. Please read them before completing your purchase.

Right of withdrawal: 14 days

Under French and EU consumer law (Code de la consommation, art. L221-18 and following) you have 30 days from delivery to change your mind, without giving a reason. This applies to every item we sell, including items bought on sale. You then have a further 14 days to send the product back to us.

Return conditions

To be accepted, an item must be returned complete, unused, unwashed and in its original packaging. An item handled beyond what is needed to try it (for example a harness worn on a walk, a chewed toy, a used bed) may be refunded at a reduced amount reflecting the loss in value.

For hygiene reasons, unsealed items that cannot be returned (bottles and bowls that have been used) are not taken back unless faulty.

How to return an item

Email us at support@chezmilo.fr with:

  • your order number;
  • the item(s) concerned and the reason (optional for a withdrawal);
  • photos if the item is damaged or does not match your order.

We reply within 2 to 3 business days with the return address and instructions. Please put your order number inside the parcel: a return without a reference cannot be matched to your payment.

Return shipping costs

The cost of sending back an item that does not suit you is your responsibility. We recommend a tracked service: the parcel remains your responsibility until it reaches us.

If the item is faulty, damaged on arrival or not what you ordered, the return is at our expense: we send you a prepaid label.

Refund

Once your return is received and checked, we confirm the refund by email. It is made to the payment method used for the order, no later than 14 days after we receive the parcel. The refund covers the price of the item and the original standard shipping cost; only the cost of sending it back stays with you.

Damaged, faulty or wrong item

Contact us at support@chezmilo.fr within 14 days of delivery, with photos. We offer you either a replacement or a refund, at no cost to you.

Legal guarantees

Independently of the right of withdrawal, all our products are covered by the French legal guarantee of conformity (Code de la consommation, art. L217-3 and following, two years from delivery) and the guarantee against hidden defects (Code civil, art. 1641 and following). If a product is not as described, you may ask for it to be repaired or replaced or, failing that, for a price reduction or a full refund.

Exchanges

We do not do direct exchanges: the simplest route is to return the item and place a new order in the size or color you want. For a harness or a bed, use the weight-based size guide on the product page before reordering.

For any question about a return or refund: support@chezmilo.fr.
