How soon should I order the stork sign?

You are welcome to place an order for a future arrival or as soon as the baby is born. The ordering process will prompt you to specify whether you already have the baby’s birth details or if you intend to provide them at a later date. When baby is born, you can simply email, text, or message us the details so we may finalize the personalized bundle. Note that we may require up to 48 hours to deliver and placing advanced orders helps us plan. You can request your preferred delivery date in the shopping cart special instructions and we will do our best to accomodate (e.g., the day before the couple is expected to arrive home from the hospital). We also recommend advance orders for events.

What kind of lawn is required to rent one of your signs?

We are able to set up our signs only on traditional lawns that have not been heavily landscaped with rocks, pea gravel, concrete, mulch, flower beds, raised beds, garden pots. Also, we cannot install our signs in hardpacked driveways since they require to be staked in. We also don't install in front of Government-owned buildings or structures.

Where will you place the stork sign in the yard?

We will use our judgement to choose a spot that looks tasteful and best for photographs and general visibility. If you have a specific spot in mind, please let us know. We will try to accommodate your request, but cannot guarantee it.

Also, we cannot install the baby stork signs in front of structures that belong to the city, county, or state as we cannot obstruct access to this areas. Examples are public utility boxes, water mains, etc.

We are able to install signs at condos and townhouses provided there is private lawn space that belongs to the homeowner or lessee.
