Shipping & Delivery Policy

This policy explains the general shipping approach for wholesale auto parts and heavy engine components.

1. Shipping Quotes

Freight is quoted based on the product type, total weight or dimensions, quantity, destination, access requirements and selected service level. Large engines and transmissions may require palletized LTL freight.

2. Processing

Processing begins after an order is accepted and any required payment or verification is complete. Estimated handling time may vary by stock location, order size and whether products require special preparation.

3. Delivery Estimates

Transit times are estimates provided by carriers and are not guarantees unless a guaranteed service is purchased and expressly confirmed in writing.

4. Commercial and Residential Delivery

Business locations with a loading dock or forklift may receive different freight rates from residential, limited-access or lift-gate deliveries. Buyers should provide accurate delivery conditions before the quote is finalized.

5. Inspection at Delivery

Inspect pallets, cartons and visible product condition at delivery. Note visible damage or shortages on the carrier documentation where possible and retain packaging for claim review.

6. Address Accuracy

The buyer is responsible for providing an accurate and accessible delivery address. Re-delivery, address correction, storage or appointment charges caused by inaccurate information may be added by the carrier.

7. International Requests

International shipping may require customs documents, duties, taxes, broker fees or import compliance that are separate from the product price unless expressly included in a quotation.

8. Contact

For shipping questions or destination quotes, email info@bechtelllc.shop with the product SKUs, quantities and destination ZIP/postal code.
