How ordering works

Joining Herbal Dispatch is simpler than it sounds. Medical cannabis needs a medical document, and that’s the only step between you and your first order. Already have one? Great. Need one? It’s on us. Here’s the process.

Order
You place it
Approved
Document in place
If not
Transfer or get one, free
Shipped
Discreetly, tracked
Delivered
To your door

If your medical document is current, an order goes straight from approved to shipped. If you do not have one, or yours has run out, the third stage is where we sort that out. Documents are valid for up to a year. Your account shows which stage yours has reached.

Step by step

What happens after you order

1
Step one

Place your order

Build your order from the menu the way you would anywhere else. Nothing ships until your medical document is in place, so you are not committing before you know where you stand.

2
Step two

Approved

If your medical document is current, that is the whole of it. Your order moves straight to fulfilment. A document runs for up to a year, so it is checked against your account rather than asked for on every order.

3
Only if needed

No document yet? Sort it at checkout

There’s nothing to set up before you shop. If we don’t have a medical document on file when you check out, the cart walks you through it in about five minutes. You can place your order straight away, and we hold it until your document is approved.

Option 1

Transfer from another licensed producer

Already registered somewhere else? Choose transfer in the cart and give us your details. We’ll ask your current producer to send your medical document across, so you don’t have to start again.

Option 2

Get a medical document, free

No document yet? Choose this in the cart, and we’ll cover the cost. A licensed practitioner reviews your file, which usually takes about two business days. Once approved, your document is valid for up to a year.

Step four

Shipped

Packed and sent anywhere in Canada in plain packaging, with tracking on every order. Shipping is free on orders over $149.

5
Step five

Delivered

Track your order all the way to your door. If anything isn’t right when it arrives, contact us and we’ll sort it out.
