When an order is very heavy or awkwardly shaped, a Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) shipment on a pallet may be required. LTL shipments are only available to continental U.S. customers. Please inspect all LTL shipments before accepting them.

IMPORTANT: If your LTL shipment is damaged, please refuse delivery and contact QRFS immediately. (Refused orders will only be refunded or reshipped if they are LTL shipments. All other refused packages will be refunded less a 25% restocking fee.)

We provide an estimate for shipping times. Once an item is shipped, QRFS will email a tracking number as soon as it is created to the email address associated with the order. Most packages ship from the QRFS Headquarters in Ashland, VA.

We cannot guarantee delivery times.

Expedited services (next-day air, two-day air, etc.) are business day services. This means that weekends do NOT count towards the service standard. An in-stock order shipped on a Friday via two-day air will arrive on Tuesday and next-day air will arrive on Monday.

Please contact us if you need special shipping arrangements.

Hazardous materials include glues, solvents, paints, fire extinguishers, compressed air, smoke-in-a-can, and products with batteries. These products cannot ship via the United States Postal Service, nor can they ship via an air service. They may be subject to hazmat fee which varies by product. If this fee applies and we did not collect it prior to shipping, we reserve the right to collect it before we dispatch the item. If you do not wish to pay the hazmat fee, then we will cancel and refund your order.

We ship to the United States and United States Territories, Canada, Mexico, and most international destinations.

For international shipments, we accept wire transfers. We charge a $25 non-refundable fee to cover the costs incurred by QRFS to process the wire transfer. All fees charged by your financial institution are your responsibility. We will NOT ship orders with incomplete payment.

We have built a national and international network of manufacturers, distributors, and fulfillment locations. Most packages ship from our headquarters in Ashland, Virginia, USA. However, we reserve the right to ship from any of our partners.

We proudly serve customers all over the globe. However, international customers should be aware of a few specific policies regarding your orders.

All prices on the website, in quotes, or discussed by a QRFS team member are in US dollars exclusively. For conversion, we recommend using an online currency converter.

International orders may require 3-5 additional days or more for processing. We only ship international orders complete and will make sure all the items on the order are in a single location before shipment.

Import Duties, Taxes, and Fees

All import duties, taxes, and brokerage fees due at the time of delivery are the sole responsibility of the receiving customer and will be shipped Delivery Duty Unpaid. Commercial invoices cannot be marked as "gift" or feature altered prices. Please do not ask.

International Returns

International orders are complete upon delivery. They cannot be returned or refunded. If your item arrives damaged, defective, or missing, please contact our Customer Support Team.

Shipping Viking Group, Inc. Material to Destinations Outside of the USA and Canada

For orders including Viking-branded material, we are required by the manufacturer to complete an Export Compliance Questionnaire.

If Viking is unable to approve your use of their products, we will issue a refund for the Viking material and, where available, offer comparable alternatives.

Countries with a US Trade Embargo

We do not ship to any location the United States’ State Department has a trade embargo or has advised against transacting commerce. Countries with select trade embargos (e.g., individuals are sanctioned but not the country) we will assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Once the item is received by our warehouse, we will issue a refund for the items less shipping within three (3) business days.

IMPORTANT: We cannot accept returns of items that were used or installed – please ensure the item meets your needs before installing it within your system.

Nearly all QRFS items are eligible for returns except:

• Special ordered items (these will have a part number that starts with "SO-")

These items cannot be returned. If special order items arrive with defects, call our Customer Support Team.
