3) How does tariffs, fees and taxes affect order costs?

Ordering internationally shouldn't come with stress, surprise fees, or endless customs paperwork. That’s why we offer DDP Shipping (Delivered Duties Paid) — a smarter, smoother way to shop globally. 🌍✨

✅ What Is DDP Shipping?

DDP = Delivered Duties Paid
This means we prepay all import taxes, duties, and government tariffs so you don’t have to.

✔️ No surprise customs bills
✔️ No hidden charges
✔️ No customs forms to fill out

Your order arrives at your door, fully cleared — hassle-free. 🎉

💸 Why It Matters — Let’s Talk Tariffs

In many countries, import fees can be shockingly high — sometimes up to 135% of your order’s value.

For example: A $100 order could cost you an extra $135 in surprise customs charges 😱

With DDP, you pay just 5–10% upfront — and we handle the rest:

  • 🌐 Import duties
  • 🧾 Government tariffs
  • 🛃 Customs clearance paperwork

4) Do you accept 50% deposits?

✅ Yes we do! - 50% deposits available for ALL orders:

  • 50% deposit to begin production
  • 50% balance after final photo proof, before shipping
  • Peace of mind: You’ll see exactly what’s being sent before you pay the remainder!

5)  What is the Minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

Most Products Have No MOQ - But larger orders are cheaper per unit!

We believe great ideas shouldn’t be limited by big order requirements.

  • 🛍️ Tip: the bigger the order, the lower the cost per item becomes and ordering more than one product type means you only pay shipping once!
  • ✅ Many of our small goods have no MOQ at all
  • 🔢 If a product does have an MOQ, it usually starts at just 1 to 25 pieces
  • 🧵 MOQ can vary depending on product type, customization, and materials
  • 💡 Want to check the MOQ for a specific product? We’re happy to help email hi@yourstuffmade.com

Examples of Low-MOQ Products

  • Acrylic Charms – no MOQ
  • Enamel Pins – no MOQ
  • Custom Apparel – small runs available for t-shirts, hoodies, etc.
  • Packaging & Stationery – typically low minimums, some as low as 1 unit for samples

We're here to help you create amazing things—whether it's 1 piece or 10,000.

6) Can I see samples before placing an order?

Absolutely! 😄 We totally understand that sometimes you need to see and feel the quality before placing a full order. To help build trust and showcase our ethically manufactured products, we offer several ways to experience our top-tier product quality. Here’s a guide to get started:

How to Get a Sample of Your Product Design:

🛠️ Simply upload your product design order on the product you want and select a quantity of 1 or more. Our team will prepare a custom sample quote for you to review before placing a full order.

7) What happens if an order arrives damaged or has quality issues?

Please let our team know asap as we offer custom solutions depending on the shipping damage and any quality issues hi@yourstuffmade.com

8) What file formats are best to send you for product designs?

For the best quality to match your design .Ai or PNG files work best, but we also accept PDF, JPEG, and PNG.

If design is not your strongest talent:

Simply grab a pen and paper, sketch out your idea, and send it to us. It doesn’t need to be perfect! Our team will take your sketch and convert it into a polished, digital design.

        How to Create Your Own Custom Tote Bags: A Step-by-Step Guide 👜✨

        Tote bags are the ultimate blend of fashion and function. Whether used as stylish accessories, promotional materials, or eco-friendly alternatives to plastic bags, custom tote bags are incredibly versatile. They’re perfect for gifting, grocery runs, conventions, or adding a unique product to your shop. 🌍🛒

        In this blog, we’ll guide you through the steps of creating your very own custom tote bags while ensuring you're making an ethical choice by partnering with Yourstuffmade.com — a female artist-owned, B Corp certified company dedicated to ethical production, sustainable practices, and helping brands of all sizes grow.

        Step 1: Choose Your Material 🧵

        Material choice is crucial when it comes to tote bags. Not only does it affect the bag’s durability and look, but it also ties directly into the eco-friendliness of your product.

        1. Cotton 🌱

        Cotton tote bags are soft, breathable, and biodegradable. They’ve been used for centuries, and remain one of the best sustainable alternatives to single-use plastic.

        • Durability: Long-lasting and washable.
        • Versatility: Great for promotional items, gift bags, or retail shops.
        • Texture: Smooth surface perfect for detailed prints.

        2. Canvas 💪

        Canvas is a stronger, sturdier material compared to cotton. It has a rugged look and is built for heavy use.

        • Strength-to-weight ratio: Lightweight yet sturdy.
        • Durability: Perfect for books, groceries, or daily wear.
        • Customizability: Works well with embroidery, screen printing, or heat transfer.

        👉 Ethical tip: By choosing cotton or canvas, you’re reducing your carbon footprint. Partnering with Yourstuffmade.com ensures your tote bags are made in locally owned factories, with fair labor standards and eco-conscious practices.

        Step 2: Choose Your Print Option 🖨️

        At Yourstuffmade.com, you can select the printing method that fits your vision:

        • Single-sided printing: A clean, minimalist look.
        • Double-sided printing: Maximum visibility for your design.

        From bold promotional logos to artistic full prints, we’ll make your tote bags stand out.

        Step 3: Consider Additional Features 🛍️

        Make your tote bags even more functional and stylish with custom add-ons:

        • Zippers: Extra security for personal items.
        • Inside pockets: Great for phones, wallets, or keys.
        • Drawstrings: Adds flair and a secure closure.

        These features make tote bags more practical, encouraging customers to reuse them daily.

        Step 4: Decide on Popular Tote Bag Sizes 📏

        The size of your tote bag depends on its intended use:

        • Small (10" x 12"): Gift bags or personal use.
        • Medium (15" x 16"): Day-to-day versatility, books, or groceries.
        • Large (18" x 24"): Perfect for events, beach days, or big shopping trips.

        Need a special size? We also do fully custom dimensions to fit your brand’s needs.
