Understanding Shipping Costs and Delivery Times
Last updated September 21, 2024
When you place an order with GearUP, you'll want to understand how shipping costs and delivery times are determined. This guide explains the factors that influence these details and how to get a clear picture of your order's shipping information.
Factors Affecting Shipping Costs and Delivery Times
- Destination: The distance between our warehouse and your shipping address plays a major role in both shipping costs and delivery times. Orders traveling longer distances usually take longer and cost more.
- Shipping Method: GearUP often offers multiple shipping options, such as standard shipping, expedited shipping, or overnight shipping. Each option has its own associated cost and delivery timeframe, with faster delivery usually coming at a higher price.
- Order Size and Weight: The size and weight of your order can also impact shipping costs. Larger and heavier packages often require larger shipping containers and may incur higher shipping fees.
- Item Availability: If some items in your order are on backorder or need to be shipped from a different location, it may slightly delay the overall delivery time.
- Promotions and Discounts: GearUP might offer free shipping promotions or discounts on shipping costs during certain periods.
How to Determine Shipping Costs and Delivery Times
- Check at Checkout: During the checkout process, before you finalize your order, you will see a section that clearly displays the estimated shipping costs and delivery times based on your chosen shipping method and your shipping address.
- Order Confirmation: After you place your order, you will receive an order confirmation email that includes the estimated shipping costs, the chosen shipping method, and an estimated delivery date.
- Track Your Order: To monitor the progress of your shipment and get real-time updates on delivery, you can use the tracking link provided in your order confirmation email or access your order details within your GearUP account.
Additional Information
- Shipping Delays: While GearUP strives for its estimated times, unforeseen events like inclement weather or holiday periods might cause slight delays in shipping.
