Policy
Storage & Abandoned Work.
Pickup-ready work gets 2.75 weeks of grace by default, with an optional prepaid hold up to 4 weeks total before billed storage and final studio reclamation.
Effective Mar 17, 2026
Key points
What to expect
-
Grace period
Pickup-ready work gets 19.25 days of grace from the moment we mark it ready for pickup.
-
Reminder schedule
We send pickup reminders during the covered pickup window. Standard reservations use day 14, day 17.5, and day 19.25; prepaid storage shifts later reminders to the 4-week cutoff.
-
Prepaid storage
You can prepay extra pickup time for a flat $15. That covers up to 4 weeks total from the pickup-ready notice before daily billing begins.
-
Post-grace billing
After grace or prepaid storage ends, storage bills at $1.50 per half-shelf per day for up to 28 billed days.
-
Reclaimed work
After the billed window ends, ownership transfers to the studio and the work may be reused, sold, or destroyed.
Timeline
How the clock works
-
Pickup-ready notice
The storage clock starts when your reservation is marked ready for pickup in the portal.
-
Grace first, billing second
Missing a pickup window does not reset the clock. Standard grace runs to day 19.25. If prepaid storage is purchased, covered storage runs to the 4-week mark. Billed storage starts immediately after the active covered window ends.
-
Daily storage billing
Daily charges only accrue after each fully elapsed 24-hour period and use your reservation's half-shelf estimate as the charge basis.
-
Automatic reclamation
At the end of the 28 billed days, the reservation is archived and shown as Reclaimed by studio.
After reclamation
What abandonment means
-
Ownership transfer
When work is reclaimed, it is treated as abandoned and ownership transfers to Monsoon Fire Pottery.
-
Studio rights
The studio may destroy, recycle, donate, sell, repurpose, photograph, copy, display, or otherwise use reclaimed work without further notice or compensation.
-
Questions or disputes
If you believe your reminder history or storage timeline is incorrect, contact support before the reclamation date shown in the portal.
