At The WEBstaurant Store, we allow our customers to register with us during the checkout process. Registration is not mandatory, but it is strongly suggested. By registering, the customer is able to access special sections of the site, such as the My Account section, where the customer can track current orders and view old ones as well as update and change their information, and the Reorder section, where the customer can order items that they have ordered in the past.

All of the information received from the customer in the registration process is transmitted over a secure server and kept in a secure location. The customer can only access their information after logging in, which is done with a e-mail/password combination that each customer personally creates.

Shipping Policy

Delivery Time

All delivery times are estimates. Orders are usually processed and ready to ship within one business day (business days are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, EST). Most products ship out of our Pennsylvania warehouses, however some items will be shipped directly from the manufacturer. Common carrier deliveries range from 1 to 10 days for delivery, depending on your proximity to the shipping origin. FedEx ground shipping can take anywhere from one to six days. For additional shipping charges, FedEx 2nd Day Air guarantees delivery of your order by the end of the second business day from when the order was picked up by FedEx. FedEx Next Day Air guarantees delivery of your order by the end of the next business day after your order was picked up by FedEx. FedEx 2nd Day Air & Next Day Air orders received after 2:00 PM Eastern Standard Time will be processed on the following business day.

Methods & Charges

The WEBstaurant Store ships the majority of its products via FedEx. However, for certain large and heavy items, a common carrier freight service is used. Common carrier items are noted in your shopping cart with red asterisks. Shipping charges for common carrier and FedEx items are calculated by figuring the weight and shipping distance. All FedEx orders being shipped to a home will incur an additional $3.50 fee. This fee is to account for higher FedEx rates when shipping to a home versus a commercial operation. The WEBstaurant Store reserves the right to select the best possible method for shipment.

Orders Damaged by Shipping

Great care is taken when packing your order, but on rare occasions, errors may take place. When you receive your order, you should always do the following:

  • While the delivery driver is still there, and before you sign the bill of lading, open, unpack, and carefully inspect your order to check for completeness of order and any damage.
  • Notate any damages or shortages of your order in detail on the freight bill. If the driver refuses to stay while you check your order, write this on the freight bill near your signature.
  • Any problems with your shipment must be reported to The WEBstaurant Store no later than two days after the receipt of your shipment.

The WEBstaurant Store is not responsible for any damaged or missing merchandise if the shipment is signed for as being complete and unharmed.

Split Shipments

We will make every attempt to ship your order within one shipment. If multiple shipments of your order are required, you will only be charged for the products being shipped at that time. The shipping cost given during checkout will be split between the multiple shipments. If you want part of your order sent 2nd Day Air and the other part sent using standard Ground, please place two separate orders.
