Freight Delivery Guidelines

Place your order by 5:00 pm EST and it will ship that day. We will give you an estimate as to the number of days it will take to reach you. Shipping times for special orders, and items drop-shipped will vary.

At times we may need to ship your order from more than one of our distribution centers. As a result items ordered together may be delivered separately, so please wait one additional day before calling concerning shortages.

U.S. Postal Service Priority Mail is used for orders sent to APO, FPO, and P.O. Box addresses, and U.S. possessions. Please allow up to 30 days for orders sent to APO and FPO addresses.

Orders sent via air, domestically or internationally, will incur additional charges if hazardous materials are contained. Hazardous materials require special packaging and documentation. Items determined to be hazardous by the Department of Transportation include such items as nail acrylics, removers, glue, gels, developers, aerosols and products containing alcohol. Orders need to be packed before actual charges can be determined. We cannot ship hazardous materials U.S.P.S. Priority Mail.

Orders with flammable products or aerosols going to foreign destinations are shipped via FedEx. FedEx cannot deliver to a P.O. Box or APO/FPO.

Freight charges cover tailgate delivery to a commercial address only.

Tailgate Delivery means that the truck will pull up in front of the salon and open the back of the truck. You are responsible for taking their shipment off the truck and carrying it inside.

The following services are available for an additional fee on truck shipments:

DELIVERY NOTIFICATION - $10

  • The freight company will call client and schedule a time for delivery.

LIFT GATE SERVICE - $150

  • The freight company will bring a truck with a lift gate.
  • Truck driver will NOT carry the item into the salon.
  • It is the client’s responsibility to carry the item inside.

INSIDE DELIVERY - $50

  • Truck driver will HELP carry the item inside.
  • Inside delivery does NOT include carrying the item up stairs. (This service is NOT available.)
  • If the client does not have a loading dock they must pay for Lift Gate Service in addition to Inside Delivery.

RESIDENTIAL DELIVERY - $50

  • Used if the client is having item delivered to their home or a home-based salon.

Due to the nature of the type of products we ship, we insure all packages. We will replace all items that come damaged immediately at no cost. We may ask for an inspection on damaged orders. An additional $3.00 will be added by UPS for residential shipping. Items with freight charges for additional items in parentheses are charged that cost plus standard shipping.

Back Orders

When placing an order by phone or internet, you will be notified if any item is not available. Since most unavailable items do not have an expected delivery date, we cannot assure you 100% Customer Success. For this reason, all backorders are cancelled and must be reordered with the exception of furniture, equipment and special orders. If you would like to be notified when an item becomes available, please email sales@theindustrysource.com and you will be promptly notified.
