Shipping policy

Payment for shipping is the customer's responsibility and must be paid prior to Custom Glass Terrarium in order to package and ship the completed order. Individual terrariums can be shipped through UPS up to 22" x 17" x 24" for a competitive rate. Larger sized terrarium will have a $55 oversized charge in addition to normal shipping rates. Terrariums requiring a box size up to 28" x 22" x 30" will have a box fee of $10, and anything larger than that will have a $15 box fee.

Shipping for individual terrariums too large for UPS Ground will be done through Priority1. All pallet quantities or terrariums larger than 45" x 17" x 24" when boxed will be shipped through the freight forwarding company, Priority1 shipping (phone #:), unless the Customer has a preferred shipping company.

Orders large enough to need a pallet and require crating, will include 1" Styrofoam lining and a 5/8" wooden skin.  In addition to the cost of shipping, terrariums needing to be crated and palletized will have a crating cost of between $75 (for individual cages) and $150 (for multiple cages or large cages). This ensures Custom Glass Terrariums insurance through the transportation company is fully covered in case of damage during transport. Crated terrariums must have the delivery company's acknowledgement of any damage upon delivery, so the Customer must open crates in front of the driver when the delivery is made. This is to ensure the insurance is covered by the transport company in the event of damage.

Personal delivery by Custom Glass Terrariums to the Customer's address will be available if a delivery run is scheduled. Delivery will be scheduled at the convenience of Custom Glass Terrariums and is subject to change depending on changes in schedule, weather conditions and vehicle maintenance needs. All terrarium orders that are invoiced as personal delivery are not refundable due to non-delivery in the event CGT must reschedule delivery based on the collective orders changing dates for delivery. Truck line shipping will be available should Custom Glass Terrarium's schedule change. The amount paid for personal delivery will be applied to shipping and any difference in price will be paid by customer.
