Change Shipping Method or Address

If you have placed an order and would like to change the shipping method selected (Standard, Expedited, etc.), please submit a cancellation request. The order must be canceled and a new order must be placed with the correct shipping method.

Customers must submit a cancellation request before the order ships. Once an order has shipped, it must go through the returns process.

Estimated Delivery

Estimated Delivery refers to the date range the product is estimated to arrive after you place an order. This includes the lead time and transit time and considers all factors to give you the date range in which your order is estimated to be delivered at your door.

Expedited shipping does not expedite the lead time, only shipping transit times. Please keep in mind lead time is not included in any expedited shipping options and cannot expedite how long it will take for the item to be prepared for shipment.

You can find the estimated delivery window on a product's page near the "Add to cart" button.

Freight orders to Canada: You will need a customs broker to facilitate your shipment. Please send your broker's information to your account manager. Let us know if you do not have a broker, and we can put you in contact with one that works well with our freight carrier.

International Freight: For freight shipped orders to addresses outside the contiguous United States, our shipping providers will need a complete shipping address with items and quantities. Because we use 3rd party freight forwarders, we cannot calculate costs at checkout and will need to contact you after we have your information. You may enter your address at checkout and place your order, and our team will contact you with prices. Or, you may contact your account manager with all of your order information to provide you with a quote before placing an order.
