DELIVERY GUIDELINES
We use reliable third-party delivery companies to deliver your meals, that will generally deliver your meals prior to 9 pm CST on your delivery date.

Furthermore, you should inspect your package to ensure the contents arrive in a cool, refrigerated condition. The best way to do this is to check the meat and fish with a thermometer to ensure their internal temperatures are 41F or below. If a fresh food product arrives at above 41F, you should contact our customer service and discard the item.
If you are not home when a delivery arrives, our delivery person will leave the package for you at your door.
In the case of inclement weather, we will deliver your order as soon as reasonably possible when the conditions permit. If your designated delivery location is inaccessible, rendering us unable to make the delivery, we will contact you to determine the best alternate location and/or date for the delivery.

RESOLVING DISPUTES — ARBITRATION
Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by calling our customer service department. If Your Chef Dre’s customer service department is unable to resolve your complaint to your satisfaction (or if Your Chef Dre has not been able to resolve a dispute between us after attempting to do so informally), we each agree to resolve any disputes through binding arbitration or in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction instead of in courts of general jurisdiction.
All disputes or claims that arise under or related to these Terms and Conditions (whether in contract, tort or otherwise, whether past, pre-existing, or future, and including statutory, consumer protection, common law, intentional tort, injunctive, and equitable claims) will be resolved either in small claims court of competent jurisdiction or by individual arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). Unless you and Your Chef Dre agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your billing address. The AAA Rules are available online at adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.
You agree to arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, NEITHER CUSTOMER NOR Your Chef Dre SHALL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER CUSTOMERS, OR ARBITRATE OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIMS AS A REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER, OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms shall be enforced (but in no case shall there be a class arbitration).
The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. This transaction and the arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act 9 U.S.C. sec. 1-16 (FAA).
TELEPHONE CALLS AND SMS TEXT MESSAGES
Upon signing up for the program, you will be asked to provide us with a telephone number at which we can reach you. That number enables Your Chef Dre to reach you with informational calls related to your transactions, including shipping updates.
If you elect to receive text messages about your account, you consent to receive recurring SMS text messages sent through an automatic telephone dialing system. This service is optional, and is not a condition of purchase. You can opt out of receiving SMS messages at any time by texting STOP in response to a text message from Your Chef Dre.
