6. Limitation of warranty — read carefully
6.1. Pumpkins are perishable natural produce. Pumpkins, gourds, hay, and related items sold and installed by Porch & Pumpkins are natural agricultural products. Their appearance, longevity, and structural integrity are subject to weather, wildlife, temperature, humidity, sun exposure, and the passage of time.
6.2. Our service is limited to delivery and, if paid for, on-site staging. Once the pumpkins have been delivered (drop-off packages) or delivered and staged (full-service packages), our service obligation is complete. We provide no warranty, guarantee, or promise regarding the condition, appearance, or longevity of the pumpkins or décor items after the point of delivery and installation.
6.3. NO POST-INSTALLATION WARRANTY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE PUMPKINS AND DÉCOR AFTER DELIVERY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:
- Damage caused by wildlife, including but not limited to bears, deer, coyotes, raccoons, squirrels, chipmunks, birds, and rodents;
- Damage caused by weather, including but not limited to rain, snow, wind, hail, freezing temperatures, extreme heat, direct sun exposure, and wildfire smoke;
- Theft, vandalism, tampering, or intentional destruction by any third party;
- Natural decomposition, including softening, splitting, sagging, discoloration, mold, mildew, insect infestation, or odor;
- Damage caused by you, your family, your guests, your pets, or any other person with access to the property;
- Damage caused by children playing with, carving, moving, or otherwise interacting with the pumpkins;
- Any change in appearance due to normal aging of natural produce over the course of the fall season.
6.4. Limited delivery-condition guarantee. We do inspect pumpkins before delivery. If a pumpkin arrives at your property with a pre-existing defect (visible split, soft spot, or mold present at the moment of delivery), you must notify us in writing at hello@porch-and-pumpkins.com within 24 hours of delivery with photos. We will, at our option, replace the affected pumpkin free of charge or issue a partial refund proportionate to the value of the defective item. Claims made more than 24 hours after delivery are not eligible for replacement or refund under any circumstances.
6.5. AS-IS after delivery.All pumpkins and décor are delivered and staged “AS-IS” and become the sole responsibility of the property owner from the moment of delivery.
7. End-of-season removal
7.1. End-of-season removal is included with our full-service packages and available to drop-off packages as a paid add-on. When ordering your package, you can schedule a pickup window between November 4 and November 30 each season (for drop-off packages, for an additional $200). If we cannot access the property during the pickup window and cannot reschedule within a reasonable timeframe, the pumpkins become the property and responsibility of the homeowner for disposal.
