In fact, much of this information on this page is superfluous because this LL Bean phone number is a direct line to a human being. The line is well-staffed and you should anticipate a very short wait on hold or none whatsoever, as long as you are calling during business hours.
We don't know of any phone menus you would encounter when calling either.
What are the hours and when should I call?
LL Bean operates the call center for this 800-441-5713 phone number 24 hours, 7 days. The short answer is that you should call on a Tuesday. This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 226 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).
When you use our free AI-powered phone to call and talk, wait on hold, or navigate for you, it will automatically wait until the LL Bean call center opens before trying to call. It will ask your permission before it places the call, so you can also further delay that scheduled call until you are ready. But that means you can "set it and forget it" ahead of time.
An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this LL Bean phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like LL Bean staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.
The least busy time to call
The least busy day to call LL Bean is Saturday. The most busy day to call is Thursday, which averages 137% more phone calls by comparison. Again, this is based on a sample of 226 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

The shortest wait on hold
We measured the shortest hold times to be on Tuesday. The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Wednesday.
The best time to call LL Bean
In summation, the best day to call LL Bean is Tuesday. It isn't the least busy day, but the fact that hold times are shortest combined with it being on the busy side tells us that LL Bean staffs up on Tuesday to handle the higher call volume, and that makes it the best time to call.
Once again, please put this information in perspective because this phone number has no phone menu or long waits. It generally gets picked up right away if calling during their opening hours. If there is any way, it will typically be very short.

There are of course other ways to contact LL Bean customer service besides the phone. Below we list the best ones, by medium.
LL Bean Customer Service Live Chat
If phone-based customer service is not available, or the wait times are long, many people prefer chat as a next-best option. Some even prefer it to calling on the phone. Luckily, LL Bean provides this option.
LL Bean Customer Help Desk / Web Support
As a last, sometimes only, resort- LL Bean customer service can be accessed through their website. This can entail digging through help articles before finding a form and "being allowed" to submit a problem to their team, and rarely leads to a real-time conversation, which is why GetHuman does not recommend this unless it's the only way.
