Shipping Policy

Shipping Policy
We have over fifteen years of experience shipping our tools and supplies to almost every country in the World. Every shipment is carefully reviewed and packaged to ensure fast and safe delivery.

Shipping Fees

Shipping costs are automatically calculated on our website by UPS or USPS when you add items to the shopping cart.

Costs are based on the overall weight of your order, and in some cases, the size of the items being shipped. We never inflate the cost of shipping or add hidden surcharges, we do, however discount the shipping costs to keep them competitive. The shipping fees you see are typically discounted 20-30%. The shipping rates displayed on our website are the actual rates supplied by UPS or USPS based on the contents of your shopping cart.

Due to their size, some items such as rail, BullFrog control rods and FreightCrates, these items will be shipped in a separate boxes. It is not unusual for boxes from the same shipment to get separated and arrive on different days.

Duties, Import Fees, Brokerage & Taxes

Shipping fees do not include duties, import fees, brokerage fees or taxes. All fees above and beyond the standard shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer.

Discounted/Free Shipping

From time-to-time we may offer discounted and free shipping based on the value of your order and the shipping destination. Shipping discounts are automatically calculated based on the items in your cart.

Free shipping orders are typically shipped using UPS Standard service, however we may choose a different shipping method based on the destination and value of your order.

Discounted/Free Shipping offers may be discontinued at any time.

Duties, import fees, or taxes assessed by your country's customs service or customs brokerage fees that are assessed by the carrier are the responsibility of the customer and are not covered by our discounted/free shipping offer.
