Please provide us with shipping information, carrier, and customs clearance information when the order is placed. If you do not have that information we can help arrange that for you. You must provide us with an invoice to ship the product across the border. Please note this should be identical to what you are charging your customer if we are shipping directly to them for you. Otherwise, if we are shipping to you directly, we will provide our invoice. Note: All orders shipping overseas, Canada, or Mexico via LTL must be shipped on HEAT-TREATED PALLETS. You will be advised of the charge prior to shipping. The charge is based on the going rate of HEAT-TREATED pallets.

Small Packages

  • FedEx shipments will be prepaid/add, unless specified. Collect and 3rd Party are available. Handling charges per package will apply in the amount of $3.50 per package.
  • We will make every attempt to ship in the most affordable way between LTL and FedEx.

For FedEx shipments going overseas, Canada, or Mexico please provide us with an invoice if shipping to your customer directly. Otherwise, we will provide one for you.

Special Packaging and Labeling

We make every attempt to follow special packaging and labeling requests, most times with no additional cost. However, we have begun to analyze each request based on the time, expense, and frequency to determine if an additional charge may need to be added. If an additional charge is required you will be advised accordingly prior to preparation of the shipment.

When a shipment leaves our warehouse it has the following:

  • Small packages: A shipping address label is applied to each package. Each shipment will have a packing slip applied to one of the boxes.
  • LTL Shipments:  Pallet Shipments will have at least one label on each pallet; one packing slip is supplied per shipment and attached to one of the pallets. Each skid will be securely packaged to ensure the product arrives safely.
  • LTL Shipments: Loose Shipments are sometimes not packaged on pallets. Each piece in these shipments will be labeled and one of the pieces will have a packing slip applied.

It is the receiver’s responsibility to inspect and make sure the order is correct compared to the delivery receipt and the packing slip at the time the order is received. All claims must be filed by the receiving party. Durable Corporation takes no responsibility for lost or damaged shipments that are not inspected properly and noted at the time of receipt. If you need assistance please contact us immediately upon receipt of the order for assistance.
