Shipping CostWe try to cover our costs with the shipping fees we charge. Automating the shipping charge process via the internet can be tricky since we never know what combination of products someone may order...one order could be for 3 items that fit inside one box whereas another order could be for 3 items that all need their own independent boxes...then you add the different shipping costs to different states...it can get tricky. If you enter your order and the shipping charge seems outrageous, then
please alert us, we'll look the order over to make the shipping cost fair and reasonable.
Call, 888-847-7257 or
email Garage Pals to ask about shipping charges.
Calculate Your Shipping CostTo calculate the shipping cost of your order, please select the items you'd like to purchase by adding the items to your shopping cart, then when at the shopping cart page enter the STATE ABBREVIATION (2 Letters) for the SHIPPING ADDRESS on the left side of the page, then click the "Update" button (on the right side of the shopping cart). This will tell you the shipping cost of what is currently in your shopping cart.
Ground Shipments (UPS)If your order is being shipped to any of the 48 continental United States, it will arrive at your shipping address 1-7 business days after the receipt of your order. If your billing address is a P.O. Box, please include your physical address as the ship-to address for faster delivery. All orders will default to the Standard delivery option at checkout unless otherwise specified at time of order.
Freight Shipments (Con-way Freight)Large / heavy items such as Base Cabinets, Combos, some Overhead Cabinets, etc., must ship via Freight Service

We are charged this $30 fee by the freight delivery company on all residential deliveries.
Nearly all freight deliveries from Garage Pals can be unloaded from the truck without the need for a loading dock, fork-lift, or "lift-gate" service. If you require "lift-gate" service at your "ship-to" address there will be an additional fee assessed to your order. Please specify the need for "lift-gate" service at time of order by writing “lift-gate required” in the Comments section of the shopping cart.
Deliveries shipped via freight require access to your "ship-to" address via standard street. Locations such as alleyways / apartments may incur an additional fee due to special delivery circumstances.
Common Shipping DelaysThe most common shipping delay results from errors in shipping addresses. Please make sure that the shipping address is correct when you order.
We do not ship on weekends, therefore orders made on weekends will be shipped out on Mondays. Exceptions to this rule are holidays. (Example: An order placed on Saturday for UPS Next Day Air will arrive on Tuesday at the earliest)

Product Damage during Shipment
- Please, always examine your shipment very carefully as soon as it arrives and do not sign for the delivery if there is any visual damage
.
- Always inspect the contents to be sure nothing is missing.
- If damage is found after the delivery vehicle departs your location please contact the shipping company first and then contact Garage Pals. We will file a damage claim and do our best to get replacement product sent to you.
- With Freight shipments, it is very important to inspect your items BEFORE signing a Bill of Lading. Once you have signed the Bill of Lading, you have accepted the shipment from the motor freight company and it is nearly impossible to file a successful damage freight claim.
