Quotations and Freight Costs
Quotations typically take 3-5 business days. We can sometimes obtain quotations faster for urgent needs, but not always. As a courtesy to our customers we do provide freight cost estimates on our quotations, but these are estimates only and not a guarantee of the actual freight costs incurred. We do our absolute best to be accurate where possible based on our knowledge and previous shipping history of the items but there are times where the information is limited and the weight and dimensions are not available or cannot be easily determined. Actual freight costs based on packed material for shipment will be billed on your invoice and are expected to be paid accordingly.
Payment Terms
All quotations are based on EX-Works Tectrad warehouse, Houston, Texas.
Unless you have been doing business with our company for many years we do require payment for orders in advance. For new customers we require payment in full when the order is processed on our side including freight costs if desired. For existing customers we do require down-payments for some larger orders or when our suppliers are requiring the same payment terms for us.
All payments are to be paid via wire transfer using instructions we will provide with our invoice.
