FREIGHT RATE

  • Surya shops for the best shipping carrier to ensure the most cost effective and efficient rates available. Most orders ship regular parcel ground service unless deemed to be non-parcel based upon the order size or shipping characteristics; additional charges apply for expedited service. Freight rates are calculated based on weight, dimensions, ship location (residential/non-residential), and quantity, rather than on a percentage of invoice amount.
  • All shipments that require special service at the time of delivery (Lift Gate, Inside Delivery, etc.) will incur additional charges. Surya will process orders based on the requirements placed by the customer.
 

SHIPPING CRITERIA

  • All items ship immediately based on availability, unless you have requested the order to ship only when all items are available.
  • If you have a preferred carrier, please notify us and specify whether we should use your 3rd party account # or Ship Collect.
  • All shipments may be subject to additional fees and charges during or after shipment based on final charges assessed as necessary to complete delivery. These charges will be billed to the customer.
  • All P.O. Box and APO shipments must be less than 70 lbs. and 5 feet in length for rugs and ship USPS. Otherwise orders will be held up to confirm shipment to physical address.
  • International Shipping: We require a 3rd party account # to ship internationally and outside of the contiguous United States. Any charges billed to Surya will be charged back to the customer.
