Shipping Charges

Items over 150lbs must be sent via an independent freight company, and an additional handling fee will apply. Please read below for more information regarding oversized shipping.  

Oversized Shipping

Items that are oversized, weigh over 150 pounds, or require special handling will ship separately from other items that you order and will incur an additional handling fee. These items will ship via freightliner. Once your order leaves our distribution center, the freight company will contact you to arrange a specific delivery time.

Freightliner Handling Fee Schedule:

  • $50 Commercial/Residential Delivery with Lift-Gate Service

Residential Delivery of heavy (over 150lbs) items requires a truck equipped with a lift-gate at an additional charge. Deliveries to facilities equipped with a loading dock usually do not require a lift-gate. The driver is responsible to bring the product to the "tailgate" of the trailer; from that point it is your responsibility to unload the item. If you need a lift-gate, please arrange this with the freight company prior to the scheduled delivery time. To avoid a lift-gate fee you may pick up your order at the trucking terminal. Please note that each shipment requires signature upon delivery. Also, be sure to inspect the shipment when it arrives and notify the driver of any damage.

Expedited/Express Shipping

PLEASE NOTE: All expedited/express shipments will require a signature for delivery. Some expedited items will take up to 24-hours to process before they are sent out to shipping.

We offer several different methods of expedited/express shipping for an additional charge. To check expedited/express shipping costs on a particular item, click the link on the product detail page. Large and overweight items are not eligible for expedited/express shipping.

International Shipping
