Shipping Policy
Last Updated: October 10, 2026
At SAM Shipping Containers LLC, we strive to make the delivery process simple, transparent, and reliable. This Shipping Policy applies to all orders placed through https://samshippingcontainers.com/.
1. Order Processing
Most orders are processed within 1–3 business days after order confirmation and payment approval. Our daily order cutoff time is 2:00 PM (GMT-05:00), Eastern Standard Time (New York). Orders placed after the cutoff time, on weekends, or on public holidays may begin processing on the next business day.
2. Shipping Fees
SAM Shipping Containers charges a flat shipping fee of $380 for deliveries within the United States. Product prices do not include applicable sales taxes unless otherwise required by law. Any applicable sales taxes will be calculated and displayed during checkout.
3. Delivery Timeframe
After the order has been processed, delivery typically takes 4–7 business days. The delivery timeframe may vary depending on:
- Product and inventory availability
- Delivery destination and ZIP code
- Carrier availability
- Weather and road conditions
- Site accessibility
- Other unforeseen transportation circumstances
Estimated delivery dates are not guaranteed unless expressly confirmed in writing.
4. Delivery Areas
SAM Shipping Containers provides shipping services throughout the United States. Delivery availability depends on the destination ZIP code, product type, inventory availability, carrier scheduling, and accessibility of the delivery location.
5. Delivery Updates
Once your order is processed and delivery arrangements have been scheduled, our team may provide updates through email, phone calls, or text messages. Please note that shipping containers and other oversized products may not have traditional parcel tracking information.
6. Customer Responsibilities
Customers are responsible for ensuring that their delivery location is ready and accessible before the scheduled delivery. The delivery area must be:
- Accessible to delivery trucks and unloading equipment
- Level, stable, and safe
- Free of parked vehicles and other obstructions
- Clear of low-hanging wires and tree branches
- Suitable for the weight and dimensions of the container
- Free of excessive slopes, soft ground, and restricted turning areas
Customers are also responsible for obtaining any required permits, homeowners association approvals, landlord permissions, or other local authorizations.
7. Unsuccessful Deliveries
If delivery cannot be completed because of an inaccessible or unprepared site, incorrect delivery information, safety concerns, or other customer-related circumstances, additional charges may apply. These may include redelivery fees, waiting charges, storage fees, or applicable cancellation expenses.
8. Delivery Inspection
Customers should inspect their shipping container upon delivery. If the delivered product is damaged, incorrect, or substantially different from its advertised description, please contact us promptly.
