Can I move the stork sign?
Please DO NOT move the 7 foot stork sign. Call us and we will be happy to reposition ‘storkie’ for you.
If you have special instructions for the yard sign placement, please notify us at the time you place your order.
If you live in a condo, please check for permission to install. Stork Stopped Here can also install storks with a non-invasive umbrella stand for patio or interior installations.
Can we reserve a stork lawn sign without knowing the exact due date?
Yes. You can reserve your stork in advance to guarantee one is available for the special day. When the baby is born you can call us with the vital statistics (name, weight, length and date of birth).

Do you deliver in bad weather?
Our storks are so hearty that they are able to withstand inclement weather (but in GTA weather is not usually a problem! ). In the unlikely case that our stork “cannot” land, we will notify the customer to cancel or set up alternative arrangements.
Does someone need to be home for a Stork Stopped Here stork lawn sign delivery?
No, there does not need to be someone at the delivery address for our stork to land with the birth announcment. If you have special instructions on where to place the yard sign please notify us when you are making the reservation. After installation we will email or text a picture to the person who orders the gift.
How is the 7 foot Stork Stopped Here lawn sign installed?
We will install your lawn stork into the lawn with a metal lawn stakes. Our stork handlers are careful to leave the yard in good condition upon the stork’s departure. If you need “storkie” placed on your patio, please let us know and we will install with a stork stand.
I live in a Condo. Can you still install it?
If you live in a condo, please check for permission to install. Stork Stopped Here can also install storks with a non-invasive umbrella stand for patio or interior installations.

Renting a “Birth Stork”
Birth Storks are rented for 3, 5 or 7 days. This gives family and friends time to take pictures.
Birth Stork Rentals include a handpainted personalized commemorative keepsake plaque (aka bundle) displaying the Baby’s Name (first & middle), Weight, and Date of Birth. (We often hear that the bundle info helps cut down on interruptions by well meaning neighbors so Mom and baby can rest when they are first home from hospital.)
At the end of the rental period, the beautiful handpainted bundle -tied with a large bow- becomes your “leave behind” gift for the new parents to commemorate the special day. Rental charge includes stork and bundle delivery and stork removal.
