I think I can do this but I really want ot make sure before I close my show tonight. My host is going to be out of town when I am expecting her shipment to arrive. If I put C/O and my name and address, I canhave all of the stuff shipped to me correct?
 
Yep... you don't even need to put a C/o if you don't want to.
 
Do put the C/O! It now asks for that as you are submitting your show in PP. HO would like to have it that way.
 
Definitely put c/o your name. I've done that countless times and had no problems!! :) I've heard your show can be put on hold if you don't do it.
 
Hmmm... I have done it both ways with no problems... <shrug>
 
Put the c/o. I got a call this week from HO because I didn't have the c/o in the address line.
 
When balancing your show in PP, you receive a prompt (second screen where it show your bookings) to do this as well. I had a show placed on hold last month because I FORGOT to put C/O myself in the shipping information. DOn't tkae any chances. If somone has done this w/o putting C/O yourself --- thye were extremely lucky!!!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my host is unavailable to receive the shipment?

If your host is unavailable to receive the shipment, you can arrange for the package to be delivered to an alternative address. Make sure to communicate this change with your Pampered Chef consultant to ensure the order is processed correctly.

Can I change the shipping address after the order has been placed?

What happens if the package is delivered while my host is away?

If the package is delivered while your host is away, it will typically be left at the designated shipping address. If your host is concerned about security, they may want to consider having it shipped to a trusted neighbor or friend who can receive it on their behalf.

Are there any additional shipping fees for changing the delivery address?

Generally, there are no additional shipping fees for changing the delivery address, but this can depend on the specific circumstances of the order. It's best to check with your Pampered Chef consultant for any potential fees associated with address changes.

How can I track the shipment if my host is not available?

You can track the shipment using the tracking number provided by Pampered Chef. This information is usually sent via email once the order has shipped. If your host is unavailable, they can share the tracking details with you to monitor the shipment's progress.
