Shipping and returns for large items that ship by truck involves practices that are different from the more familiar package shipments. We request that you carefully review everything outlined below so that these differences are familiar to you.

We have also prepared a short video to help explain the curb side delivery process. It is very useful in helping to understand what to expect with your delivery:

Returns

If you are not completely satisfied for any reason you may return your item within 30 days ( except custom orders). Preference returns are subject to costs and conditions as outlined below:  

1) If you need to return an item, please Contact Us with your order number and details about the product you would like to return. We will respond quickly with instructions for how to return items from your order.
2) All preference returns incur a 20 pct restocking charge. In the event of shipping damage, please see clause 7 below.
3) For preference returns, you will be responsible for covering the cost of the freight when the item was shipped to you and for the return freight.  Please understand that actual shipping costs can be very expensive (usually between $300 and $800 each way) for large items that have shipped via freight truck.
4)The unassembled item must be returned in the original packing, be in new condition and suitable for resale.
5)Any orders that are refused upon delivery, undeliverable, or cancelled after being shipped will be subject to the above return policy, unless such refusal is because of shipping damage or our error. In the event of shipping damage, please see clause 7 below.
6) Once the item is received by us and inspected to be free of damage, we will promptly issue your net refund.
7) All shipments are insured against freight damage.  It is extremely important that you inspect your shipment when received. If you notice damaged cartons or merchandise, please notify the driver immediately and note the damage on any paper work you are required to sign.   Notify us immediately by calling 1-877-358-5579 after you have signed with exception for your shipment.  We will immediately resolve the issue, which may include reshipping your order or sending replacement parts.

Cancellations

If your cancellation is received with at least one business day’s notice PRIOR to scheduled shipping, eFamilyFun will gladly provide a full refund. If your item has already been shipped or if cancellation is not received with enough notice, the cancellation shall be considered a return and handled in accordance with the above return policy.

An important exception to this policy is for custom orders and special orders which are non-refundable. As soon as a custom order is placed, we initiate the sequence of events which ultimately results in your receiving the product of your choice. Since these items are custom ordered, we collectively become financially obligated to purchase and pay for the item when ordered. Some manufacturers are more lenient than others and we will attempt to assist in cancelling any such orders,  but it is important to understand that this may not be possible. If you are unsure if your item is being custom produced and therefore subject to restricted return or cancellation, please call customer service at 1-877-358-5579 or email us at fun@efamilyfun.com

If you wish to cancel your order AFTER it has already shipped it will be subject to the returns policy as stated above.

Shipping Transit Times

Shipping transit time will vary depending on the type of item, your location and the available services. Typically, we ship within two business days of receiving an order. Products that ship via package delivery services like UPS, will arrive between 1 and 8 business days of when the order is placed. Products requiring freight shipment can take from 2 – 20 days, depending on the location and if there is remote scheduling for your area by the carriers. Please contact us at 877-358-5579 and we will be happy to check in greater detail for your specific item and location.

Shipping Charges

Residential, curbside shipping or UPS ground shipping is included on all orders totaling $49.00 or more. 

How you receive your order is very important!
SMALL items will be delivered by a carrier such as UPS or FEDEX. You will be notified by the carrier if your signature is required.  If you've purchased small items, please read and follow from step 2 below.
LARGE items such as game tables will be delivered by a common carrier such as ABF or Saia Freight.  After shipment, you will receive a phone call from the trucking company to schedule delivery of your order. They will typically  ask for a 3 or 4 hour delivery window and someone over 18 must be home to accept the delivery.  If you purchased a large item, please read and follow these steps carefully;
 
1)    With curb side shipping the trucking company is only responsible to show up at the curb closest to your door or driveway.  They are not responsible for offloading your order or bringing it inside.  Some drivers will assist you in getting the shipment off the truck,  but they are NOT obligated to do so. You must have the appropriate number of people available to help you with offloading on the scheduled delivery day.  Failure to successfully unload on your scheduled delivery day will result in re delivery charges. If you need assistance in offloading, additional services may be  available for an additional charge, such as lift gate or inside delivery. Many of our items are too long to safely use a lift gate. Please advise us immediately if you desire a quote on these services. 

2) Your purchase is fully insured against shipping damage. In the event of damage we will reship or refund immediately and you will not have to wait for the shipping claims process PROVIDED you inspect your shipment carefully upon arrival and any damage or concerning condition is marked on the receiving document before you sign. If the product has evident damage, please refuse the shipment. If you cannot see damage but suspect that it may be possible, please ask the driver to let you open the packaging and inspect. If the driver refuses, please mark the receiving document "damaged". Please understand that when you sign the receiving document without any notation, you are stating that delivery is acceptable and that the goods have been safely received. If damage is present, please notify us immediately by calling (877) 358-5579 after the shipment has been signed for with exception. We will resolve the issue promptly. This may include reshipping your order, sending replacement parts or issuing a return authorization number. If undisclosed damage is discovered after receipt, you must notify us within 72 hours of receipt and we will process a claim via the carrier. In this case the resolution shall be in accordance with the trucking companies claim process.

3) Installation may be available for certain items sold on our site and provided by third party service companies that are arranged by us.  When purchasing installation, the item is shipped to the freight terminal that services your address where it is then held for pick up by the service team. If available, the installation cost includes final delivery and assembly in  any room in your home via a single, straight flight of stairs. All other conditions, or locations in remote areas, require a custom quote. Assembly service does not include the removal of packaging materials or pallets. Returns are not accepted for missed or rescheduled installation dates. Upon arrival of the installation team it is the purchaser’s responsibility to inspect the item prior to installation being certain it is the correct item and free from defects or shipping damage. Please notify us immediately in case of an incorrect item or damage. A decision can then be made whether to continue with the installation or reship the item.
