As staff and management of IRL Supplies we are working to do our part to contain the spread of COVID-19. Internally we have adopted new internal policies to keep the risk to our staff, and therefore our customers, to a minimum. We have done this through creating and reiterating healthy work place habits and strict adherence to social distancing. We have also cancelled all un-necessary work travel for as long as is needed. These new policies are in conjunction with any regulations and suggestions provided by municipal, provincial and federal regulators. As the situation changes frequently, so do our policies, please check back often for more details.

Shipping for Out of Town Customers

We are temporarily suspending our same day shipping policy for out of town orders. This will allow us to be able to work through orders in a safer manner and limit our contact with shipping companies so that they also may look after the more serious needs of the nation. We will only be shipping orders out on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

 

Keeping space in the store

We have marked off spacing on the floor at our front counters to give the needed 2m spacing between our staff and customers.
