*Shipping Policy* Free Shipping on orders of $250 or more! *Shipping Policy* We at Equipment Sales make every effort to ship you order within 24 hours. Estimated shipping and delivery dates are based on method of shipping. Although we stock many items, there are some that may be out of stock, or items that are not stocked and would be delivered directly from the manufacturers facilities (drop-shipped). In these cases additional days will be added to the expected delivery for truck-freight and non-truck freight orders. For orders that are not in-stock and cannot and cannot be drop-shipped from the warehouse, the order will have to be “double-shipped,” shipped to us and then re-shipped to its final destination. You will be notified in advance of such situations, as they will incur an additional 4-6 days shipping time. No B.S. Shipping Policy Rules What Qualifies? Every order that is above $250 qualifies for Free Shipping, no matter the weight, no matter the category, no matter what!!!
Non-freight orders (orders under 100 lbs) are shipped exclusively through UPS. Please remember that in the event that items are not in-stock at our facility and the order cannot be drop-shipped from the warehouse. In these cases items will have to be “double-shipped,” shipped to us and then re-shipped to destination. You will be notified in advance of such situations, as they will incur an additional 4-6 days shipping time.

Shipments to Alaska and Hawaii will be delivered to a Port Terminal, or Barge Terminal in the Contiguous 48 US states at the appropriate freight rate (see shipping cost for Freight and Non-Freight items). Unfortunately this is the extent of our shipping involvement for Alaska and Hawaii. EqSS is not responsible for shipping arrangements, air, barge or LTL from the (domestic/conterminous 48 states) terminal to the order’s final destination, and such expenses will be the end-users expense. Please contact us with any questions.
Shipments outside the US do not qualify for free freight under the “NO B.S. Shipping” shipping program and will be subject to current actual rates plus any special handling or shipping fees.
Once processed, you can expect your order to take 4-7 business days with the exception of any situations noted within the shipping policy. For residential and liftgate delivery, the terminal will contact you upon item arrival and you will asked to schedule a delivery time. These times are generally in the morning. You may also be able to make arrangements with the trucking company to take delivery at the freight terminal. They will load it onto your vehicle. Make sure your vehicle is capable of handling the weight. Also, bring plenty of tie downs to properly secure the load. We only deal with, what we consider, to be the safest and most courteous trucking companies, however truck drivers are subject to a number of regulations one of which is that they are not required (although they are often extremely helpful) to give assistance unloading. If you choose to have your items delivered to a residential address please be prepared for this “curbside” delivery, as you are responsible for unloading the item(s) and placing them into your shop. This normally takes a couple of “friends.” For residential or residential with lift gate delivery your location must be tractor-trailer accessible.
Equipment Sales and Surplus uses what we believe to be the best carriers in the country. However, on rare occasions shipping damage can occur. It is extremely important to inspect and note any damage that might be suspect. Holes, dents, tears, etc… should be noted on the BOL the driver gives you to sign accepting delivery. These notations will allow us to make a claim for shipping damage on your behalf. Failure to do this may make a claim impossible. If there is shipping damage and you have noted it on the BOL you can email us at [email protected] and/or contact us at (253) 804-3211. Items that have obvious signs of severe damage should be refused and Equipment Sales and Surplus contacted at the number above.
There may be instances where orders or portions of orders are out of stock. These items will automatically be placed on back order and shipped when made available. Credit cards will not be charged until item(s) are shipped. You will be contacted with this information. In the case of multiple items on one order, partial orders will be shipped as per policy and you will be contacted regarding back-ordered items. Returns and Warranty Policy:
