GENERAL POLICY:

COVID-19 SHIPPING UPDATE:
As of 01/01/2021 we are still dealing with a constantly changing and backlogged system and there will be temporary modifications we must continue to deal with. While we benefit from being an "essential" business, we are not immune to issues. Many of our shipping warehouses are still experiencing longer processing times due to employee shortages, supply chain issues and the precautions in place to keep our staff and customers safe. At this time, we are still not able to guarantee any same day shipping for expedited orders. We apologize for this, we know you need your uniforms now more than ever, so we are processing and shipping as safely and quickly as possible. It is our priority to keep our business partners, our staff and our customers safe.

 

COVID-19 SHIPPING UPDATE:
Suspension of Money-back guarantee and Service Guarantee for UPS and FedEx Please note that both FedEx and UPS have suspended their “Money Back Guarantee” until further notice due to unprecedented volume and demand. Therefore, if this service is requested for your order we will not be able to guarantee the projected delivery date.

SHIPPING OUTSIDE THE CONTINENTAL US:

Shipments to Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Guam and Military addresses are a two step process; 1) Ship to UniformsAndScrubs.com, 2) Ship to the customer via USPS Priority mail. All shipments will be held at UniformsAndScrubs.com for final shipment until ALL items are available and with then ship complete. No partial shipments.

SHIPPING PROCESS:

UniformsAndScrubs.com normally uses a “Two Ship” policy which will release all available items immediately for shipping, and will forward all remaining “Back Ordered” (B/O) items when they are ALL available. In some short B/O cases, a “Ship Complete” status will hold your items until all are available.

BACK ORDERS:

Back orders (B/O) do happen and will cause a delay in shipment based on the constantly changing availability of the item(s). B/O's occur when the style/size/color you ordered is not in stock. Most B/O’s are under 2-3 weeks but can be longer. As we source direct from the manufacturer, it is advisable to keep your order active for immediate allocation once the item(s) become available. In the event of a multiple item order, we will ship what is in stock, and ship the B/O's complete when all B/O item(s) are available. In this case customers are NOT charged shipping on B/O’s under NORMAL circumstances, however this does NOT apply to single item orders and shipping will be charged on these per policy.

BACK ORDER NOTIFICATION:

UniformsAndScrubs.com typically receives B/O information on your order within 24-48 hours after your order is placed. In some cases this may be longer based on inventory status. UniformsAndScrubs.com makes every attempt to notify our customers in a timely fashion the event of a B/O situation, primarily via email. Unfortunately, previously communicated B/O dates can and will change from time to time based on inventory allocations by the manufacturer. UniformsAndScrubs.com makes every attempt to update our customers, but in many cases we are not informed of the B/O until an inquiry is made at which time we pass the information on to our customer.

DISCONTINUED ITEMS:

When an item(s) on an order is discontinued, standard policy is to refund that item(s) and ship the remainder of the order per our standard shipping policy. Although we make every attempt to determine the integrity of the order in this event, UniformsAndScrubs.com will not be held responsible for making this decision. Original shipping costs on ALL orders are non-refundable under MOST circumstances.

CUSTOMER ENTRY ERRORS:

When an item(s) on an order is entered incorrectly by the customer, UniformsAndScrubs.com makes every attempt to catch and remedy these issues; however, UniformsAndScrubs.com will not be held responsible for making these corrections and the costs to return and/or reorder the item(s) is solely that of the customer. Shipping costs on ALL replacement or correction orders are non-refundable.

DELIVERY ACCEPTANCE:

ALL UniformsAndScrubs.com orders ship "SIGNATURE NOT REQUIRED" as most of our customers are not available during standard delivery hours to personally receive their package. It the customer’s responsibility to notify their carrier, neighbors, doormen, building managers, etc. of the pending delivery if you have concern over leaving your package at your residence or place of work. As we utilize third party delivery services (UPS, FedEx, USPS, etc.), please note that it is up to the delivery driver to determine and insure the safe arrival of your package.
