The Deck Store USA Shipping Information
SHIPPING TIMES ARE NOT GUARANTEED
Please Note: There is an anomaly with Free Shipping where products with different free shipping amounts may cancel each other out. Until we get that tracked down your best bet is to place separate orders for each Free Shipping amount. You can view the shipping prices on the Check Out page.
The Deck Store USA strives to ship out all orders as quickly as possible. Some conditions out of our control can delay some shipments.
The charges for shipping are not controlled by us either. Our shipping charges come direct from the major shipping carriers, predominantly Fedex & UPS, & can be quite high for some larger items. We do our best to keep the costs as low as possible, & offer free shipping on certain items when ordered over a specific amount. Current shipping charges will be available when you place items in your Shopping Cart.
Several products we carry are made to order & shipped directly from the manufacturer. Expedited shipping is generally not available. These items may take extra time for delivery, & most are Special Order & Non-Returnable.
The Deck Store USA generally ships Fedex, UPS, or USPS, but we may also use regional shippers or on larger orders LTL Freight carriers.

For Freight Shipments, the driver is only responsible to move the freight to the end of the truck. You will be responsible for unloading the items, usually by hand. Refused loads or Liftgate services will be charged an extra delivery fee, for which you will be responsible. To avoid these fees, it is a good idea to have several people to help unload.
You must inspect your items for any damage at the time of delivery. If damage is found, you will need to take pictures and inform the driver immediately. Take note of the trailer number and contact us. Due to recent changes in NMFTA rules, any concealed damage must be reported within 5 days of delivery, after that, damaged products may not be covered.
