SHIPMENTS
Parcel Shipments
We ship smaller, lighter items via courier or mail (e.g. UPS, Fed Ex, or USPS). You'll receive notification as soon as the order ships. Items may require assembly. Available shipping options will be noted in the shopping cart, but generally include 1-day and 2-day shipping. If 1-day shipping is available for an order, the order is expected to be delivered within 1 business day after it has been shipped and picked up by the delivery carrier. If 2-day shipping is available for an order, the order is expected to be delivered within 2 business days after it has been shipped and picked up by the delivery carrier. Business days do not include weekends or holidays. Delivery may be delayed by factors such as changes in inventory, delivery capacity, and unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, such as strikes, natural disasters, and inclement weather.
Less Than Truck Load (LTL) and Full Truck Load (FTL) Shipments
After you place your order, will be contacted to schedule delivery. If a liftgate is needed, you must indicate this when you schedule your delivery. Please arrange for all unload and rigging equipment and personnel to be present when the truck arrives. We request a 48-hour notice if you want to reschedule or cancel delivery. You may incur an additional fee if you reschedule less than 48 hours prior to delivery, or if no one is available or if available personnel do not have the ability to safely unload the freight when the truck arrives.
Unless otherwise indicated, the items will be delivered in a 53' van or shipping container.
