Top Questions

Who wants to wash dishes when they could be doing, well, anything else? All our lids are dishwasher safe - but we strongly recommend rinsing them prior to putting them in the dishwasher. Simply let the water run through the spout as well as the vent and then toss them on the top rack of your dishwasher.

No one wants to cry over spilled milk - or coffee - so here’s some tips to keep a lid on it (literally).

• Place the lid on top of your mug
• Apply slight downward pressure & rotate counter clockwise until you hear a click and lid falls into place
• Keep rotating clockwise to tighten down until secure

We’d love to have a pop up shop on every corner, but right now our website is the only place to buy replacement lids. If you don't see your lid, feel free to email us at [email protected] or give us a call at 1.888.262.0622 and we’ll try to help you find what you’re looking for!

If only we could hand deliver them to you ourselves! But alas we’ve got amazing products to design and emails to answer - so here’s the breakdown:

U.S. Shipping Times:
FedEx SmartPost* 8 - 10 business days
FedEx Home Delivery 6 - 7 business days
FedEx Two Day 3 - 4 business days
FedEx Standard Overnight 2 - 3 business days

Please Note: Orders that ship FedEx SmartPost can only be tracked to your local post office. Once it arrives at the post office, it will ship USPS to your home. At this time, this option is only available in the contiguous US.

Canada Shipping Times:
*We apologize for the inconvenience but we are temporarily unable to process orders shipping to Canada due to a system upgrade. Please check back again soon.

FedEx International Ground 3 - 9 business days
FedEx Economy International 3 - 7 business days
FedEx Priority International 2 - 5 business days

Please Note: Orders shipping to Canada must have a physical shipping address. FedEx International will not ship to a PO Box.

We’ve found online tracking to be a whole lot easier and more reliable than trying to train Chicago’s pigeon populace to deliver tiny, handwritten notes.

You’ll receive an email from FedEx confirming shipment of your order and your tracking number within 3 - 5 business days if not sooner. If you select the SmartPost option, you’ll only be able to track the package to your local post office. From there, the package is sent USPS and can no longer be tracked via FedEx.

Please note that you won’t receive a shipment notification email or tracking number for orders containing only replacement lids and/or cleaning brushes. Orders containing only replacement lids and/or cleaning brushes are sent via USPS.

Shipping via FedEx SmartPost in the contiguous US is $4.99, unless you spend $35 or more and it's free!. For bulk orders (over $150 in the US) standard shipping rates apply.

If you are shipping to Canada, you will need to use the shipping estimator on the checkout page. The costs are pulled directly from FedEx when you enter the shipping address during check out.

Yes! We are able to fulfill web orders shipping to Canada.

Unfortunately, at this time we are unable to fulfill web orders to Puerto Rico.

We know you want your Contigo as soon as possible. Unfortunately, at this time we can only ship FedEx Smart Post or FedEx Ground. We hope to add more options soon!

Take care of your Contigo & your Contigo will take care of you. Here’s all the info you'll ever need for every product we offer.

It can be any number of things depending on what liquid you have put in your bottle. It is most likely a natural build up that can naturally grow when beverages are left in bottles for prolonged periods or when bottles are not disassembled and allowed to completely dry. To avoid this natural build up from occurring, please keep the bottles clean & dry between reuses. Do not store beverages overnight in bottle. Always store with straw, lid, and body disassembled and separated to allow parts to remain completely dry and free of visible moisture to prevent discoloration.

To effectively clean your water bottle, we recommend that you disassemble and soak the parts in hot mild soapy water, then scrub parts using nylon or plastic cleaning pads & bristle brushes (e.g., Scotch-Brite(TM) Dobie(R) All Purpose Cleaning Pad). Rinse. Shake off residual water after rinsing or removal from dishwasher, then allow to completely dry overnight until visibly dry before reassembly and reuse.

To submit a warranty claim, go to the “Need Help” section and click "Lifetime Guarantee." Then, click "fill out form." Within the form, you will be required to submit two photos of your product in order for us to better understand the issue. Please include a photo of the lid, as well as a photo showing the issue at hand.

After we receive your information and photos, we will contact you within five business days with the results of your claim.

While we would love to give you the exact same product it’s not always possible. Our stock levels are constantly changing so we may need to replace your product with a slightly different color or a similarly featured model.

After we receive your information and photos, we will contact you within five business days with the results of your claim.

It may be faster to return your product to the retailer you purchased from, however this is not required.

Please review the warranty information under “Need Help” and then “Lifetime Guarantee”. If you believe your product qualifies for the warranty, simply fill out the form (you do not need an order number) and we will review it accordingly.

We typically process warranty claims within 2-3 weeks. Once we review them, we’ll reach out and let you know whether or not your warranty has been approved. If your warranty has been approved, we’ll include next steps. Either way, you’ll hear from us.

We’re extremely proud to stand behind the design, quality, materials and workmanship that go into every one of our products. We go to great lengths to create the best product that we can, and then we back that excellence with the Limited Lifetime Guarantee.

The warranty covers:
Manufacturing defects
Workmanship issues
Defective products
Mugs, bottles, and replacement lids
Products purchased in the US and Canada

It does not cover:
Normal wear and tear
Dents and scratches
Fading and paint chips
Accidental damage (like a dropped product)
Product misuse and improper care
Cleaning-related issues
Accessories (like straws and brushes)

We don’t sell individual parts for our water bottles and travel mugs (like gaskets or seals). Instead, we sell replacement lids for most of our products. That way, we can handle the DIY for you.

No, unfortunately, we don’t have parts (gaskets, seals, etc.) to ship out. But if your warranty claim is approved, we’ll do you one better and replace either your lid or your whole product.

Skip past the Contact Us form and go straight to filling out the warranty form located here.

We try to make it as easy as we can, so we’ve included pictures of all of our products. Select the category of your product (Mugs, Water Bottles, etc) and look for the model and color that’s closest to your product.

We do our best, but due to inventory changes we cannot always replace your product with the same color or exact model. If that’s the case, we’ll replace your product with something very close — either a slightly different color or a model with similar features.

Here at Contigo^®, we take health and quality very seriously. All of our plastic water bottles are BPA free and many are also made from FDA approved Eastman Tritan™. Eastman Tritan is far more durable than a traditional plastic and helps resist against stains and odors.

Our stainless steel water bottles are also BPA free and are made from food-grade stainless steel.

Our stainless steel travel mugs are made out of food-grade stainless steel. They’re also BPA free.

Thermalock™ vacuum insulation locks in the temperature for hours. On these types of bottles and mugs both inner and outer walls are made of stainless steel, and the air between those walls is removed to create a highly-insulated barrier. This form of insulation delivers the best hot or cold retention possible and also prevents condensation and sweating. Your hot beverages will stay piping hot for up to 5 hours and your cold drinks will stay refreshingly cold for up to 18 hours.

Well certainly! Thermalock™ vacuum insulation on your stainless steel travel mug will help keep your drinks cold for hours.

Unfortunately no, the components in your water bottle are not engineered to withstand the heat from hot beverages.

Sweaty palms should be saved for first dates and playoff games – not from holding your water bottle. Double-wall construction means that the water bottle or travel mug body features both an inner and outer plastic wall which helps reduce sweating and condensation.

AUTOSEAL^® technology is the trifecta in convenience – it’s spill-proof, easy to clean and simple to use with just one hand. It’s on a variety of different travel mugs, water bottles and kids bottles. And since it automatically seals between sips, we like to say, “It knows when to close™”.

AUTOSPOUT^® technology is all about making hydration easier. These water bottles and kids bottles feature a pop up spout that makes it easy for one-handed drinking. Simply, Press to Refresh™. Plus, AUTOSPOUT^® water bottles have a spout cover to protect against dirt and germs.

The AUTOSPOUT^® lids on kid’s bottles feature a spill-proof valve for added peace of mind.

AUTOCLOSE^® technology is on our Shake & Go™ tumblers and it’s engineered for leak-proof mixing and shaking. The lid features a trap door so you can add your favorite water enhancers and shake them up until your heart’s content. No worries about spills or leaks. Afterward, simply put in the straw and enjoy.

SnapSeal™ is your leak-proof partner to get you through your day. When you’re done sipping, you can easily snap the lid closed for leak-proof convenience on-the-go.

We sell Contigo products all over this big, beautiful blue marble we call Earth. Please see our international distributor’s page for a list of distributors near you or click here.

We’re pretty easy to find. We’re at most major retailers and their respective websites, including Amazon.com, Target, Walmart, Bed, Bath & Beyond, Costco, and more.

Unfortunately, no (we’re still working on developing our psychic capabilities). Your best bet is to call ahead and check online so you can be sure the product you’re dying to get is in stock.
