Shipping and Handling Policy
MINIMUM FREIGHT CHARGE
On orders where Standard Freight applies (via Canada Post, Canpar or LTL-Less than Truckload or Skid shipments), Wintergreen will ship pre-paid and add 15% shipping and handling to your invoice.
For all orders with a subtotal of $66.00 or under, a minimum freight charge of $9.95 will be added. For Orders with a subtotal over $66, the standard freight charge of 15% will be applied.
Note: If items cannot be shipped within these minimums we will contact you with a freight quote.
Please inform Customer Service of any Special Delivery Requirements at the time of placing your order. The more information on delivery conditions you can provide, the better for our Quote Team to provide an accurate quote for freight & delivery.
While our standard freight percentage applies to most orders, there are occasions when we review orders and are required to present an updated, accurate freight quote amount as determined based on Carrier rates. In these instances, you will be contacted by a member of our Team with a freight quote, for your approval. These special delivery requirements include, but are not limited to: inside, beyond threshold delivery, delivery to a specific room or floor in the building, oversized items, and delivery to a POSTAL CODE listed below.
Please note that “delivery” refers to a threshold delivery and includes delivery to a safe exterior area such as a garage, covered porch or just inside the exterior door of the building.
Drivers will not provide delivery beyond the door of the building. If beyond threshold delivery is required, it is considered to be a special requirement and will require a review of freight charges.
All freight charges beyond Provincial forwarding points are the responsibility of the customer. Please call for a freight quote.
Delivery service does not include set up, assembly of items, haul away or removal of packaging materials and debris. Should you require installation, assembly and/or debris removal, please contact us and we would be happy to provide you with a quote.
