How long does it take to get what you order?
For every order, there are generally two things that contribute to how fast your merchandise will arrive at its destination.

If you want to check on the lead time for certain products before placing your order, please feel free to contact us at 866-715-6006.
- Once your order is shipped from the factory, the time it takes to arrive is determined by the method of shipment and the destination.

What to do if your shipment arrives damaged:
Before signing for any delivery, be sure to inspect the packages for any sign of damage. DO NOT SIGN FOR YOUR ORDER UNTIL YOU HAVE PHYSICALLY INSPECTED IT. Also, advise your family members, employees, or any others who may be present when delivery is made NOT TO SIGN either. Packaging that appears in good condition does not guarantee that there is no “hidden” damage. The only way to be certain is to fully unpack and examine the contents carefully. Should you not have time to inspect it, please sign the receipt as ‘un-inspected’ instead of your signature. Legally, by applying your signature, you are signing a document stating that you have inspected the item and it is in good condition. In this case, any later claim for un-noticed (“hidden”) damage must be filed by you with the freight company as we will have no recourse when the item is signed for.
If the boxes appear to have been damaged in transit, be sure to note this on the delivery receipt before signing for the delivery. Then, contact our customer service department so that we can arrange to replace your damaged merchandise and schedule the shipper to inspect the damaged packages. If damage is concealed, contact our customer service department immediately upon discovery of the damage.
Unfortunately damages sometimes happen. It is of the utmost importance that any damages are reported to us as soon as possible and not later than 3 days from receipt. If you intend to store an item for later use you MUST unpack it and examine for possible hidden damage. No claims will be accepted by shipping companies after 3 days. Also – see the warning above (under Shipping) about not signing on receipt without examining each item carefully.
Shipping information:
Standard shipping is through FedEx. Products are typically shipped within 48-72 hours but shipping does vary by selection and need. Note: Items that weigh over 150 lbs. cannot be shipped via FedEx and will be shipped via common carrier. We will contact you prior to processing your order to confirm your shipping costs.

If you are unable to do so, it may be necessary for the trucker to use a tailgate lift at an extra charge.
