Order, Cancellation & Delivery Policy

 

  1. Order Processing & Cancellation:

RequirementDetails
Product Condition DisclosureContainers are sold in used or new condition as described in the product listing. Cosmetic wear consistent with handling does not qualify as damage
Cancellation WindowOrders may be cancelled within 24hours of purchase for a full refund if processing has not begun. Once processing or delivery scheduling has started, cancellation may be subject to administrative and logistic fees
Non-returnable freight explanationShipping containers are large freight items delivered using specialized equipment and not eligible for standard product returns once delivered.
Non-ReturnableDelivered containers, customized units and orders where delivery access requirement are not met are not eligible for returns

2. Delivery Conditions and Damage Reporting:

Delivery Access Requirements
Customers must ensure the delivery location is accessible for large freight trucks and offloading equipment. This includes adequate space, clear ground conditions, and no overhead obstructions. Failed delivery due to site inaccessibility may result in redelivery fees.
 
Inspection at Delivery
All containers must be inspected by the customer at the time of delivery. By accepting delivery, the customer confirms the container was received in the described condition unless damage is noted at delivery.
 
Visible Damage Reporting
Any visible damage must be:
 
Noted on the delivery receipt before the driver leaves
 
Photographed clearly
 
Report to us within 24 hours of delivery
 
Failure to document visible damage at delivery may limit claim eligibility.
 
Concealed Damage
If damage is discovered after delivery, customers must notify us within 24 hours with photos and a description. Claims are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
 
Cosmetic Wear
Surface rust, dents, scratches, and signs of prior use are normal for used containers and are not considered damage unless they affect structural integrity.
 
Non-Returnable Freight

Shipping containers are large freight items. Once delivered and accepted, containers are not eligible for return. Issues are handled through repair, partial credit, or resolution review

 3. Non Returnable Freight Explanation 

Shipping containers are classified as large freight items that require specialised transportation, heavy-duty delivery equipment, and site coordination. Because of the size, handling process, and transportation logistics, containers cannot be restocked or resold in the same condition once delivery has been completed.
 
Delivery involves dispatch scheduling, equipment allocation, loading, transportation, and on-site offloading. These services are fulfilled specifically for each order and cannot be reversed after completion.
 
For this reason:
 
Shipping containers are not eligible for return once delivered and accepted
 
Freight, transport, and delivery service charges are non-refundable
 
Orders where delivery has been completed, refused at site, or where site access prevents offloading are still considered fulfilled delivery services
 

Issues related to condition, damage, or discrepancies are handled through inspection, documentation, and resolution review, not through product returns.

 4. Issue Resolution Process

We are committed to resolving delivery or product concerns quickly and fairly.

Step 1. Report the Issue

Customers must report any delivery or product-related issue by 

email to: returns@bestshippingcontainers.com 

Include:

  • Order number
  • Description of the issue
  • Clear photos of the container
  • Photos of the delivery area (if access or placement is part of the concern)

Reports should be submitted within 24 hours of delivery.

Step 2. Review & Assessment 

Our team reviews all claims based on:

  • Delivery documentation
  • Product listing description
  • Condition shown in submitted photos
  • Inspection standards for used and new containers

A response is provided within 7–14 business days.

Step 3.Resolution Options

Depending on the issue, resolution may include:

  • Repair guidance
  • Replacement part shipment (if applicable)
  • Partial credit or price adjustment
  • Further inspection coordination

Because containers are freight items, resolutions focus on correction rather than returns.

 

Step 4. Communication

Updates, approvals, or next steps will be communicated by email. Customers must respond promptly if additional documentation is required.

Refund & Adjustment Processing ( If Applicable)

  • If a claim is approved through the Issue Resolution Process, financial adjustments may be issued depending on the nature of the issue.

Eligibility for Adjustments

Adjustments may be considered when:

  • A container arrives with verified structural damage not disclosed in the product description
  • Delivery service errors occur
  • A product discrepancy is confirmed during review

Because shipping containers are freight items, refunds are not based on physical returns but on documented condition review.

Types of Adjustments

Resolutions may include:

  • Partial refund based on damage assessment
  • Price adjustment reflecting condition discrepancy
  • Credit toward repair or corrective action

Replacement component shipment (if applicable)

Processing Timeline

  • Approved refunds or adjustments are processed within 5–10 business days after final resolution approval.
  • Funds are returned using the original payment method unless otherwise agreed.

Non-Refundable Charges

The following are non-refundable once services have been performed:

  • Freight and transportation charges
  • Delivery and equipment dispatch services
  • Administrative processing fees related to completed orders

Review Requirement 

All refund or adjustment decisions are based on: 
  • Delivery documentation
    Photographic evidence
    Product listing description
    Inspection standards for used and new containers

5. Final Resolution Outcome

After review of submitted documentation, one of the following resolutions will be issued:

Repair or Correction (Primary Resolution)

For freight containers, issues are typically resolved through correction, replacement parts, or approved repair rather than full product return.

Partial Refund or Price Adjustment

If damage, condition discrepancy, or listing error is verified, a partial refund or price adjustment may be issued based on severity and repair cost assessment.

Replacement (If Applicable)

If the unit is determined to be unusable due to verified structural or transport damage, a replacement container may be arranged, subject to inventory availability.

Claim Denial

Claims may be declined if:

Report is submitted outside the required time frame

Damage is cosmetic and consistent with listed condition

Delivery documentation conflicts with claim details

Product matches listing description

No Action Required

If inspection confirms product condition matches listing and delivery documentation, no adjustment is issued.
