Frequently Asked Questions

What time of day will my meals arrive?
The delivery window for all of our carriers is from 8 AM to 8 PM on delivery day. If you won't be home, that's okay! Our insulated boxes with ice packs will keep the box at refrigerated temperatures for quite a long time and you can note in your delivery instructions where our carrier can leave your delivery.
How soon can I get my first order?
We deliver Mondays and Tuesdays, with availability depending on your postal code. Our cutoff for any new or modified orders is Wednesday at 11:59 pm PT, one week prior to delivery. Meaning, this Wednesday’s cutoff is for the food that arrives next week. After your first order, you’ll start receiving a box of food every week! You will always have until our Wednesday cutoff to modify the order, including the meal selections, plan size, and billing and shipping information. We need a week of lead time because all meals are completely made fresh-to-order by our chefs. We wait until after the cutoff to order ingredients, so we can assure our ingredients are fresh and we don't waste any food.
Can I cancel my subscription at any time?

You certainly can! We really try to make it easy to manage your subscription, so if you need to take a break from our delicious meals or you decide that Factor isn’t a fit for you, all you need to do is log into your account and you can cancel your subscription there.

While you can cancel at any time, cancelling your subscription does not cancel existing orders. If you cancel your subscription before the weekly cutoff time on Wednesdays at 11:59 pm PT, no automated order will be placed for delivery the following week. If you cancel your subscription after the weekly cutoff time and an automated order was placed, that order cannot be cancelled and you will receive it the following week.

Are these meals for weight loss?

While our meals are not designed specifically for weight loss, they can help you meet your nutrition-related goals depending on how you combine our meals with the other food you enjoy in a day.

Do you offer low-sodium meals?
At this time, we do not offer low-sodium meals. If you are looking for the lowest possible sodium meals, simply click on the photo of each meal to determine the sodium content.

At this time, we are unable to customize menus based on specific ingredients or macronutrient needs. However, you do have the ability to view and modify your meal selections each week and remove any meals you don’t want.

Our menu contains a full list of ingredients and nutrition label for each meal. Simply review the meals in your cart before the order cutoff on Wednesdays at 11:59 pm PT - if any meals contain an unwanted ingredient, you can remove the meal from your cart and add something else! After the weekly cutoff, we are unable to change your meals.
