You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not infringe the rights of others or restrict anyone else’s use of the Site. Prohibited activities include:

Violation of these terms may result in immediate suspension of your account, refusal of future orders, and/or legal action.

3. Product Information & Pricing 🛒

We strive to display accurate product descriptions, specifications (weight capacity, dimensions, material), and images. However:

• Errors may occur – we reserve the right to correct any typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions without prior notice.

• Pricing changes – prices are subject to change at any time. But once you place an order, the price at checkout is locked in.

• Limited availability – some bulk cart models may be discontinued or out of stock. We will notify you promptly if an item you ordered is unavailable.

• Sales tax: We collect state sales tax where required by law (based on shipping address).

5. Shipping, Delivery & Risk of Loss 🚚

• Shipping estimates provided at checkout are estimates only. Actual delivery times depend on carrier schedules, weather, and other factors beyond our control.

• Risk of loss passes to you when the carrier takes possession of the shipment (FOB shipping point). However, we will assist with damage claims as described in our Refund and Returns Policy.

• Freight deliveries: For large bulk carts (e.g., over 150 lbs), you are responsible for being present to receive the shipment. Missed delivery appointments may incur re‑delivery fees.

• Delays caused by carriers, customs, natural disasters, or other force majeure events.

Our total liability for any claim related to your purchase is limited to the amount you paid for the specific product giving rise to the claim.

8. Warranty Disclaimer

Unless explicitly stated in the product description or our separate warranty page, all bulk carts and components are sold “AS IS” with no implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. The 5‑year frame warranty and 1‑year caster warranty described on our About Us page are the exclusive warranties.

9. Force Majeure

We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside our reasonable control, including but not limited to: acts of God, war, terrorism, labor strikes, supply chain disruptions, or government orders.
