Shipping & Receiving Policy
Delivery methods
Orders ship by parcel, LTL, or truckload as appropriate from U.S.-based stocking locations to the delivery address. Available services and charges are displayed through the connected shipping system at checkout or confirmed in a formal landed quote. Locations without a dock or forklift may require liftgate, appointment, limited-access, or other services selected before order placement.
Receiving requirements
Someone authorized must receive the delivery. Count pallets and cartons against the bill of lading (BOL) before signing. Photograph the shipment as received.
Damage and shortage — the critical rule
Note any damage or shortage on the BOL before the driver leaves. An unnoted BOL makes freight claims nearly impossible to recover. Concealed damage must be reported within 5 business days with photos of cartons and product.
Do not install damaged material
Installation constitutes acceptance. If material arrives damaged or incorrect, stop and contact us the same day — we prioritize replacement material on your schedule first and settle the claim behind the scenes.
Acclimation
Acclimate flooring per the manufacturer’s instructions — typically 48 hours at 65–85°F in the installation space — before installation begins.
