Shipping & Delivery Policy

Last updated: November 2026

At American Formwork Supply, we understand that construction projects run on tight schedules. We are committed to getting your formwork, scaffolding, and related equipment to you as quickly and reliably as possible through our network of distribution centers and trusted logistics partners across the United States.

Processing Time

Orders placed before 2:00 PM (local time of the fulfilling warehouse) on business days are typically processed the same day when stock is available. Orders placed after the cutoff or on weekends/holidays will be processed the next business day.

Standard handling time is 0–2 business days.

Delivery Estimates

Once your order ships, estimated transit time is 1–5 business days depending on your location and the carrier used. Combined with handling time, most orders arrive within 1–7 business days after the order is placed.

Delivery dates provided are estimates only and are not guaranteed. Actual delivery times may vary due to carrier capacity, weather, remote job-site locations, or other factors beyond our control.

Carriers & Shipping Methods

We ship using a network of reputable LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) and full-truckload carriers located throughout the United States. The specific carrier is selected based on destination, shipment size, and the fastest available service.

Shipments are generally sent via common carrier. Title and risk of loss transfer to the buyer when the goods are delivered to the first carrier (Ex Works).

Shipping Costs

Shipping costs are calculated based on destination, weight, dimensions, and carrier rates. As a general guideline, freight typically ranges around 15% of the order total, though final cost can be lower or higher depending on the specifics of your shipment.

Exact freight charges will be confirmed before your order ships. Large or specialized shipments may require a custom freight quote.

Delivery Locations & Special Services

  • We primarily ship to commercial addresses and job sites within the contiguous United States.
  • Job-site, limited-access, residential, or lift-gate deliveries may incur additional carrier fees.
  • A forklift, dock, or other means of unloading is typically required. Please let us know in advance if special delivery arrangements are needed.

Multiple Distribution Centers

American Formwork Supply utilizes strategically located distribution centers across the United States to reduce transit times and get materials to your project faster. Orders are fulfilled from the location that can deliver the quickest and most cost-effectively.

Claims for Loss or Damage

Claims for loss or damage that occur during transit must be filed directly with the carrier. Please inspect all shipments upon receipt and note any visible damage on the delivery receipt before signing.
