CryoFX® Shipping Advisory:

CryoFX® elects to ship all products with the standard available shipping agencies, titled "Agencies" (Fedex® UPS® DHL® USPS®). CryoFX® cannot and does not guarantee the delivery timeframe, method of delivery, or any other shipping related service or option avialable whether booked, quoted, or already paid for offered by these Agencies. These Agencies operate separately from CryoFX®. Once CryoFX® hands over posession of any package to these Agencies for shipment to the customer, CryoFX® releases all control and responsibility of the package released to the shipping agency. It is at this point the shipping agency takes full control and responsibility of the package(s) to ensure they arrive in the same condition, undamaged, in working order, and on time bound by the contracted shipping service purchased. If there is an issue with the package in its arrival such as a late package, damaged package, non-working item without damage to exterior of package, or lost package, this is the fault and issue of the carrier delivering the package and not CryoFX®. CryoFX® at their sole discretion may assist in facilitating the claim with the shipping agency on your behalf, however generally these claims are required to be filed by the receiver inclusive of photos, details, and additional information provided by you, the receiver.

Current Covid & Holiday Updates

As stated from the carriers themselves, UPS® and FedEx® are not guaranteeing delivery of the products on time from October 18, 2021 and November 1, 2021 forward respectively. This is for any service including overnight, 2 day, 3 day, and ground, regardless of the name of the service. As these companies are not guraranteeing any money back for claims made due to the delay or late delivery of the shipments routed through them, we must advise you to take into consideration this information when placing an order as should you need your order expedited, considering our special operating schedule and shipping details listed herein, listed on our site, and the details listed on UPS® and FedEx® websites, we advise you to plan accordingly when placing your order for timing and delivery purposes. CryoFX® is closed November 18-27, 2022 and December 16-27, 2022. CryoFX® closures during holiday hours are subject to change without notice.

 

CryoFX® Shipping:

General
All orders through CryoFX®, online or invoiced, are subject to all terms and conditions stated on CryoFX® public policies. Depending on product(s) ordered, CryoFX® may ship product(s) or orders, individually or collectively, from one or more of the CryoFX® affiliated warehouses, facilities, businesses, or companies of choice at the sole discretion of CryoFX®. CryoFX® makes the determination internally in good faith effort to better service customers by reducing handling times, ensuring quick processing periods, and accomodation in an ever changing unique global atmosphere, which is greatly impacting shipping, delivery, and stock of products. As so, certain products may be drop shipped direct from manufacturer, supplier, or affiliated warehouses or facilities located internally or externally the USA, to the end customer. All products from CryoFX® ship as "Free on Board Origin (FOB ORIGIN)"

Tanks
All Tanks and Cylinders sold from CryoFX® are shipped empty. Depending on many factors, Tanks will ship from one of CryoFX® or associated manufacturer locations within the continental USA, a certified testing location, the manufacturer direct, or an affiliate of CryoFX® at the sole discretion of CryoFX®. The method and location selected is solely determined by CryoFX® to ensure efficiency, a quick turnaround with current global conditions, all while maintaining the proper processing and testing prior to shipment. Tanks are tested and certified within Hydrostatic Date to ensure you recevie a tank ready to use. Due to the testing and certification process, individual packing and shipping, verification of compliance prior to shipping, and location the tanks will ship from, the processing period for tanks to ship will vary from 2-22 business days generally. This is in conjunction with the general processing times for orders per CryoFX® normal operating hours stated online. Tanks with dip tubes (siphon tanks) follow a strict process for installation of the dip tube. Checks and balances are carried out during this process and the tank and/or valve is marked accordingly. Tanks with or without dip tubes that are damaged during shipping are required to abide by all CryoFX® policies for notification of damage. Some damages may not be visibly present, for instance a dip tube disconnect, in which shaking the tank would present the issue as you would hear the dip tube rattle. Claims that tanks "don't work" are subjective and will require validity and proof by a certified compressed gas facility with video surveillance of the testing for complaince and processing a return. At any time the process laid out is not followed in the order required and by the means required in the process, the return and warranties processes will be voided as they will fall out of line with regulations by federal and state agencies, insurance, and CryoFX® policies on handling, safety, and formal processing of the claim for tanks specific. There are no exceptions to this policy. Mandating CryoFX® alter these processes by any means may constitute a state or federal crime and will be reported to the appropiate authorities immediately.

When will my order be shipped?
Orders that are placed and paid (with a cleared payment) before 12pm PST will be processed the same day, except Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Orders placed Friday, Saturday, or Sunday will process on the following Monday (or Tuesday should Monday be a holiday - all holidays observed). Shipping commences after the processing of the order completes. Therefore, if you purchased overnight shipping, without front of the line service, and the order takes 2 warehouse days to prepare, your order will ship overnight after the processing time of two warehouse days, which may be a week after the order is placed due to normal warehouse operations as stated above. Orders normally ship within 3-9 business days unless an item is backordered or one item within the package is delayed. (Due to material shortages post pandemic many supply chains are affected therefore affect all suppliers and sellers downstream.) Orders ship Monday through Thursday during warehouse days. Currently CryoFX® warehouse operations commence 1-2 times per week. Warehouse days are not specifically set as these are tailored to orders quantity and type for that week. Should any expected major delay, custom inquiry, or backorder occur, you will be notified at once with updated information. CryoFX® has limited operation for 1 week in January for yearly inventory which take place the 3rd week into the month. Inventory operations normally take place over a weekend to allow minimal delays of orders in accordance with normnal closure Friday-Sunday and non-warehouse day on Monday. During this time all orders are held until after inventory is complete and shipped on the next business day upon conclusion. Dates vary per year and are subject to change. CryoFX® reserves the right to change shipping agencies and levels of service at any time to provide the intended best service for customers.

Will my order ship together? (Split Shipments)
All multi-piece orders will ship together. Therefore, if one piece is backordered, the entire order will wait to ship when the backordered item is available. If you wish to split ship your order, CryoFX® will need to be notified by you, the customer, of your decision to do so. This may incur additional shipping charges which you will be notified of at the time of discussion. 

Can I have my order placed, first, or ahead of the line?
As to remain fair to all customers, orders are fulfilled in the order they are received. We do offer the option to have your order bumped to the front of the line at a cost of 25% of your order total. This is separate from upgraded shipping and applies to all orders from CryoFX®.
