​

Shipping/Postage

The rental carrier can either be picked up from the SNUGGstudio or can be shipped to your address using PosLaju. Any shipping charges incurred will be calculated at check out page according to the weight of the package and your location.

Extending your loan
You must advise us by 24 hours before the return date if you want to extend your loan period. You can contact us in writing via WhatsApp, email, Instagram, Facebook or website contact form and chatbox. 

Returning slings and carriers
Please return your carrier on its due date. Late return of slings will result in a late charge of RM5 per day. We will deduct this late fee from your security deposit.

Please contact us in writing before the end of the hire period if you will be late returning your hire sling, so that we can arrange a hire extension. We may reduce fees or waive fees for late returns, in exceptional circumstances, at our discretion.

If we do not hear from you within 30 days of the sling return date, we will consider the carrier lost and keep your full deposit.

We will refer cases to the small claims court if you fail to return your hired carrier despite several reminders (we will always do our best to contact you). The small claims court action will aim to recoup the full replacement cost of the carrier, as well as any outstanding hire fees.

Condition of the Sling/Carrier
We check all slings and carriers before we lend them out, to ensure that they are in good condition. As the hirer, you should also check the condition of the carrier prior to the start of the loan.

If you receive a library sling by post, if there are any breaks or flaws that prevent its use, you should report these immediately to SNUGGbaby in writing, and within 24 hours of receiving the carrier. In such cases, we will refund the hire fee in full on return of the carrier. We are unable to refund the postage fees.

Damaged or Lost Carriers
If a sling becomes damaged while you are hiring it, please contact us immediately and do not use the sling any further. You will pay the full replacement cost of any lost or damaged carriers, and accessories.

Safe Use of Carriers
We provide instructions for safe use of all carriers, usually by email as an online link. If they are not supplied, it is your responsibility as the borrower to ask for a copy of the instructions.

All our slings are safe when used properly. Misuse may cause injury to yourself or child. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are using the carrier correctly and that your baby is safe at all times. SNUGGbaby is not responsible for any accident that results in injury or death whilst the carrier is in your care.

We suggest that after familiarising yourself with the relevant instructions, that you practice using the carrier with a doll, teddy or cushion so that you get used to tying, fastening and adjusting the carrier. Always ensure that you seat your child correctly in the carrier and check any knots regularly.

If you feel any pain while carrying your child, change the carrying position or remove the carrier. If you are unsure about anything you read in the instructions, please ask us.

Looking after your sling/carrier
Please look after your sling carefully.

Please do not smoke while wearing or holding the carrier. Please do not use the sling in smoky environments, including your home if anyone living there smokes inside the home.

Please keep the sling away from pets, as the next family to use it may have an allergy.

Food and posset marks are normal when carrying children, but please keep the sling away from anything that may cause more permanent stains (oil, paint, pens, hair or make up products, nail varnish etc), or anything that might damage it (e.g. scissors, velcro, keys in your bag, fire). You will pay the full replacement cost for any sling that has been damaged beyond normal wear and tear.

Your carrier may come with suck pads (to protect the straps from damage from children chewing on the straps), cincherbelt, detachable accessories and/or a chest strap. Please do not lose these additional items that comes with the carrier.

Cleaning
Do not wash the sling. Spot cleaning is the safest if you have any accidents. You can wash the suck pads. If you do need to clean your carrier, please contact SNUGGbaby first. Many slings have particular advice to ensure they do not lose their shape and structure.

If you DO clean your carrier (after taking advice from SNUGGbaby), please:
*Use baby friendly soap or liquid detergent (to avoid exacerbating allergies in the next user),
*NO optical brighteners (they can damage fabric)
*NO fabric conditioner (they make the fabric fibres and buckles slippy).
*NO tumble drying.
*For buckled carriers, please close all buckles and washing the carrier inside a pillowcase. Follow the instructions on this page
