Shipping

Stock items are shipped from my NJ warehouse via UPS ground. Delivery times are shown on the map below. Heavy items (compressors, cabinets, etc) will typically be drop-shipped from the manufacturer.

 

UPS Ground delivery transit times (from NJ)

 

The shipping cost for most US ground shipments, regardless of the number of items, is a fixed $10.00 charge per order. Any additional freight costs (due to heavy or oversized individual items) will be indicated in the item description or disclosed (via phone or email) before your order is processed.

Air shipment (Overnight, 2nd day, and 3-day UPS service) is available at additional cost. Shipments to Canada, Alaska and Hawaii will be quoted at actual cost.

Orders are typically shipped via UPS. If you require US Postal delivery, there is a $25.00 postal delivery handing charge for orders weighing under 20 lbs, and a $50.00 fee for shipments weighing 21-50 lbs. All orders over 50 lbs will have to ship via UPS or common carrier.

Festool tool and accessory orders over $150 are shipped prepaid freight (UPS ground) within the 48 Continental states. The $10.00 freight charge will be manually credited to your order when the transaction is processed.

Order Tracking

Since most orders are consolidated and packed by Ultimate Garage in NJ, a UPS tracking number is available upon email request so that you may track your order until it arrives. High value items will require an adult signature to verify their delivery.

Damage & Shortage Claims

All damages and shortages must be reported within 72 hours . All original boxes must be retained for carrier inspection of damage claims.

 

 

Returns

I will not accept unauthorized returns. No returns on electrical items, publications or special orders. No returns on USED items. All returns must be in the original packaging and will be subject to a 20% restocking fee. No returns after 30 days. Freight costs will not be refunded. Refunds can only be issued against the credit card used for the original purchase.

Festool offers a 30-day money back guarantee on their tools. If you are not completely satisfied, you can return your Festool tool within 30 days of your purchase for any reason. Please contact our office for a return authorization. We will supply you with the correct address for your return. Not all types of returns are to be shipped to the same address – so this is very important. All return items must be in original condition with all tags attached and in original packaging.

Warranty

Ultimate Garage is NOT responsible for shipping costs or labor reimbursement on items submitted and/or replaced under warranty.
