Shipping policy
Shipment processing time
All orders are typically processed within 2-3 business days, unless otherwise noted on the product page. Orders are typically not shipped on weekends or national US holidays.
Orders that require a longer handling time are always noted on the product page. These orders generally require longer processing time because they are not stock items, need some customization prior to shipping, or require more time to prepare for shipping.
Selecting expedited shipping at checkout DOES NOT reduce the internal lead time to prepare the order for shipping, as noted on the product page.
If we are experiencing a high volume of orders, shipments may be delayed by a day or two. Please allow additional days in transit for delivery. If there will be a significant delay in shipment of your order, we will contact you via email, chat or telephone.
All orders $500+ before any applicable discounts will have signature release required for delivery. If you need a specific delivery date, please coordinate with UPS directly.
Shipping rates & delivery estimates
Products ship free via UPS in the continental USA, Hawaii, Alaska, Guam and the US Virgin Islands. Samples are excluded from free shipping.
Samples shipping charges are dependent on the weight of the samples ordered and the shipping speed desired by the customer. See the sample program for details. The Samples Program is only available to members of the inspire Hardware Trade Program.
Expedited shipping is an additional charge on all orders, calculated by weight, shipping method and destination. Expedited shipping charges for your order will be calculated and displayed at checkout, and are the responsibility of the customer. If you need a shipping speed not listed at checkout, please contact sales@inspirehardware.com for help with special shipping.
