Understanding EveryPlate's Cutoff Deadlines
EveryPlate has a strict cutoff deadline to ensure they have enough time to process changes before your box is assembled and shipped. This deadline is typically five days before your scheduled delivery day, by 11:59 PM Central Time (CT). Missing this window means you will be charged for and will receive that week's box.
Cutoff Schedule for US Deliveries
| Your Delivery Day | EveryPlate's Cutoff Deadline (by 11:59 PM CT) |
|---|---|
| Monday | The previous Wednesday |
| Tuesday | The previous Thursday |
| Wednesday | The previous Friday |
| Thursday | The previous Saturday |
| Friday | The previous Sunday |
| Saturday | The previous Monday |
| Sunday | The previous Friday |
How to Skip Multiple Weeks
If you plan on being away for an extended period, you can skip multiple weeks in advance. However, each week must be skipped individually. The process is the same as skipping a single week; you just need to repeat the steps for each upcoming delivery date you want to pause. You can access and manage these future weeks through the 'My Menu' section on the website or app.
What to Do If You Miss the Cutoff
If you realize you need to skip a week after the deadline has passed, options are limited. EveryPlate's system will have already processed the order, and it's too late to make changes. In this case, you will receive and be charged for that week's box. Plan ahead and set a reminder to manage your deliveries before the weekly deadline.
Skipping vs. Cancelling: A Quick Comparison
Knowing the difference between skipping and canceling is important for managing your EveryPlate subscription effectively.
| Feature | Skipping a Week | Cancelling Your Subscription |
|---|---|---|
| Effect | Temporarily pauses one or more deliveries. | Permanently deactivates your account and stops all future deliveries. |
| Commitment | Retains your account; you can easily unskip and resume deliveries. | Ends your commitment; you can reactivate, but it closes your account. |
| Frequency | Can be done for as many weeks as you choose, individually. | A one-time action that stops all subsequent orders. |
| Best For | Holidays, busy weeks, taking a break, or having excess groceries. | When you are done with the service for the foreseeable future. |
