Shipping Policy
Shipping in the USA: All shipments are F.O.B. Bound Brook, NJ 08805 for most items.
Some bulk items will be drop shipped from the manufacturer, at our discretion. Unless instructed
otherwise, we ship the most economical way. If requested, we can ship Collect or
C.O.D. freight charges via UPS or FedEx Ground on your account. Packages under 150
lbs can ship UPS or FedEx. There are various modes of transport for UPS & FedEx.
We can ship via any mode of UPS or FedEx in the domestic USA provided the package
is not hazardous. Packages or pallets can ship virtually any trucking company that
you specify or we can ship "bestway" and charge you accordingly.
If you would like us to ship to an alternate address, please contact your card issuer
and request to add it as an alternate shipping address. As per our sales policy,
both billing and shipping addresses must be on record with your card issuer before
we can process an order. This is our fraud prevention measure. The reason why we
do this is because anyone that has your information (such as billing address and
credit card no.) can have the parts ship to anywhere in the U.S. But only the cardholder
can add an alternative address with the card issuer. Once you have added
the alternate shipping address, please give us a call or send us an email so we
can verify with your card issuer. If adding an alternate shipping address
is inconvenient, we can always ship to your verified billing address (providing
that it is not a P.O. Box, APO, or FPO addresses). After 3 days, your order will
be canceled if we have not received any reply from you. You are responsible
for any and all additional fees charged by a shipping carrier, such as, but not
limited to: Delivery Area Surcharges, Extended Service Area Surcharges, Signature
Surcharges, Hazardous Materials Surcharges, Residential Surcharges, Invalid Account

COD Shipping in the USA
UPS and FedEx charge an additional "per box" COD fee and can change at
any time since this fee is set by UPS / FedEx. Please check with UPS or FedEx for their updated rates and surcharges. This fee is added to your shipping charges unless
shipped Collect against your account.
Hazardous Products / Dangerous Goods - Shipping
A product is considered hazardous by its MSDS / SDS information and/or if regulated
by the US Department of Transportation or by any other government regulatory agency.
The regulations in the USA are set by the 49CFR (Title 49 of the Code of Federal
Regulations) (see the e-CFR on gpoaccess.gov).
For all international hazardous shipments and some domestic air hazardous shipments,
the regulations are further regulated by ICAO / IATA (International Civil Aviation
Organization / International Air Transportation Association) (www.icao.int,
www.icao.org, and
www.iata.org)
All hazardous products incur an additional "per box" HAZMAT shipping charge on all
prepaid shipments; as of January 1, 2016, ground shipping is $35.00 per box in addition
to all handling, shipping, fuel surcharges, delivery area surcharges, and/or insurance
fees for USA domestic bound packages. This fee is subject to change at any time
by the carriers. Presently, we ship HAZMAT products via UPS Ground or FedEx Ground.
We can only ship Overnight HAZMAT products via FedEx Priority 1 at a prepaid HAZMAT
fee of $90.00 per box for accessible dangerous goods USA domestic bound packages
in addition to all other shipping fees and $110.00 per box International but can
vary depending on the rates charged by FedEx. We will advise at the time of order
shipment. This AIR HAZMAT fee can vary depending on FedEx. International AIR shipments
require additional paperwork and clearance by the carrier and we presently only
ship international AIR packages via FedEx. We strongly recommend “case quantities”
to minimize additional charges. Presently, most 1 gallon containers ship four to
a box for one HAZMAT fee. 5 gallon containers are individual. For larger quantities,
palletized shipments are strongly recommended.
Of course we can ship collect on your UPS, FedEx, DHL, or LTL freight account and
the carrier will bill you directly for any and all hazardous fees.

all shipments immediately upon arrival. All claims for short shipments must be made
