SHIPPING POLICY: Most products are shipped worldwide. Most items will be shipped by U.S. Mail, UPS, Common Carrier (LTL) depending on the weight. We use many different freight companies trying to save you money. We do not guarantee delivery dates under any circumstances.
Large shipments may be delivered on pallets. A forklift is generally used to offload large shipments, but the pallets can be broken open to be offloaded by hand. Most residential deliveries can be taken off the truck by hand. The drivers only responsibility is to get the order to the end of the truck. It is the receivers’ responsibility to remove the product. This only applies to Common Carrier deliveries, not UPS, FedeX, etc. If a lift gate is required, inside delivery or you need to reschedule a delivery it is the sole responsibility of the Buyer to arrange and pay the applicable fees. We will not be responsible for these fees and if we are charged in your be-half, you will be charged.

To the extent that Seller, as a result of such contingency beyond the control of Seller, is unable to perform its obligations under this order, in whole or in part, then to that extent, this Agreement shall be considered as cancelled without liability to either party, but shall remain in full force and effect as to the unaffected portion of such order, if any.

Any shortages or damages must be noted on the bill of lading at the time of delivery. If damage is found after the driver has left, the trucking company must be notified and a claim filed. Make all claims promptly. Most times an inspector will be sent out to see the damage or to note a shortage.
