Shipping Policies
Policies for Shipping, Returns and Damaged Goods

All deliveries are curbside deliveries; drivers are unable to enter your home. Be prepared to help offload the product from the truck. The individual cartons usually weigh about 35 lbs, but some can weigh up to 55 lbs each. You need to consider accessibility to your street or driveway when choosing the residential delivery option, as orders are typically shipped via full-size semi trucks. In the event that the delivery truck cannot get to your home, your order will need to be transferred to a smaller truck, if one is available (additional fees may apply, these will be paid directly to the carrier). Residential delivery fees that have been paid cannot be refunded if this occurs.

PLEASE NOTE: At the time you receive your order, you MUST check for damages and/or missing items, and note that accordingly on the bill of lading. It's a good idea to have a copy of your invoice with you, so you can verify you received all of the items ordered. If you ordered more than one molding, please open the tube or carton to make sure all of the moldings are present and undamaged before signing. If you do not check the materials yourself, please make certain that the person signing for them checks for damaged or missing items. If no damages are noted on the bill of lading, FloorsFor Less Online.com cannot be held responsible for any damages or shortages that occur. Be sure to visit the following link to read our ordering policies:

PLEASE NOTE: Any refused shipments without the consent of Floors For Less Online.com will be treated as a return, and will be subjected to all associated costs. Even if there is damage on the order, you MUST note the damage and ACCEPT the order. We will file a damage claim with the shipper and replace or refund the damaged items noted.

All requests for return must be made within 15 days of receiving product.

BEFORE YOU INSTALL THIS MATERIAL, PLEASE VERIFY THAT THE PRODUCT YOU HAVE RECEIVED IS FREE OF IRREGULARITIES BY CHECKING THE FOLLOWING:

IS THE PRODUCT IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR ORDER AS TO THE SIZE, PROFILE, COLOR, AND QUANTITY?

ARE THERE ANY FINISHING ERRORS SUCH AS SURFACE FINISH, BLOTCHES, ABNORMAL COLOR VARIATION, ETC?

NOTE: SHOULD YOU NOTICE THESE OR ANY OTHER IRREGULARITIES TO THIS PRODUCT AFTER OPENING 1 TO 2 BOXES, DO NOT INSTALL THE MATERIAL. PLEASE CONTACT US RIGHT AWAY. IF YOU CONTINUE TO OPEN MORE THAN TWO BOXES WITHOUT CONTACTING US FIRST, WE CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING THE OPENED BOXES.

ACCEPTANCE: This product is manufactured according to the highest standards of quality. However, should any material not meet your requirements, we must be advised PRIOR to installation. Otherwise, we will not be able to accept responsibility.

Shipping Policy:

When your order arrives, you want to be sure the quantities match what you ordered. To guarantee customer satisfaction, please make note of the following when receiving your order:

Visually inspect the condition and entirety of the shipment, make sure to note missing items or damaged materials. The order confirmation email you received lists all the materials and quantities you ordered. If your bill of lading does not list by quantity (e.g. one (1) shrink wrapped pallet), you will need to examine the pallet and count each item to make sure everything ordered has been received.

Unless specifically requested (additional cost), all deliveries are curbside. This means that you (or someone able) must be home to take the material from the trailer to your home. The driver will only unload to the curbside and are not allowed to enter your home. Once unloaded, it is recommended to store the flooring in the location where it is to be installed. This will serve two purposes: 1) it will allow the flooring to acclimate, and 2) reduce the number of times you will have to move the flooring. Cartons can weigh up to 65 lbs. depending on the product (50 lbs. average).

DO NOT let the driver leave until you have verified the material received is in good condition and that all material has been accounted for. Any damages or missing items must be noted on your delivery receipt. If not noted, it increases the amount of time required to seek resolution. And in such cases, you will be required to file directly with the carrier. See our Damages Policy for more information.

Conditions:Taking into consideration the many variables in shipping, we strongly recommend that you do not book your installer until after you have received your order in its entirety. Manufacture times, weather, supply-demand conditions, and replacement shipping for damaged items are just some of the instances that may delay your order. Please schedule your install to ensure you have allocated time to receive your order. We can not be held liable for failure to meet scheduled install dates due to delivery. Delivery dates are approximates, and as such, can not be promised under any circumstance.
