Frequently Asked Questions

Purchasing, Pricing & Payment

What methods of payment do you accept?
We accept ACH, Check, Visa, MasterCard or Amex Credit Card, Wire Transfer.
How can I get a better price? Do you offer price breaks?
Yes, we offer price breaks based on purchase quantities, as well as corporate level pricing.
What is your policy regarding freight charges?

Freight shipping costs are always the responsibility of the customer, except with free product samples. We try to arrange carriers and shipments by whatever means you request and always pass on any carrier discounts we receive on your behalf. There is only a minimal charge to cover our shipping costs related to the contacting of the carrier, preparation of paperwork, invoicing and payment of bills (if applicable) etc. If you have any shipping-related questions, please contact your sales representative.

What are your standard payment terms of sale?

Our standard payment terms are “Net 30 Days.” We strongly believe in the adherence of these terms since they are part of Logistick’s corporate objective to only engage in fair and equal business practices. We provide on-time shipments of quality products and always pay our suppliers within their specified terms. We expect the same from our customers. In the United States and Canada, we accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, check or wire transfers. For other International sales we generally only accept wire transfers.

Do you sell globally?

Yes we do!

What is the lead time on orders?

Orders usually ship the same day or next day.

What if I need an emergency shipment of products after the daily cut off time?

Our sales staff works hard with our customers to avoid this exact situation. Our order entry system was designed to help prevent this situation through the issuance of blanket purchase orders. It allows us to schedule follow-up calls to confirm future deliveries, serving as a reminder to you and allowing you to actually control the release of products in conformance with your immediate needs. If you do happen to run out of a product and need an immediate delivery after our daily shipment cutoff time, we will still try to meet your needs as best as possible. Timing sometimes makes this impossible no matter what we do, however, if we can do it, there will be a minimal “rush fee” for the special handling and in most cases the freight carrier (whatever method you choose) will charge a higher premium as well.

What is your company policy on product returns?

If we have made a mistake regarding your order or there is a product quality concern, we want to be the first place you call to report it. We will ask you to identify the problem and the production number on the box from which it came. If we are responsible, we will have you return the entire case of the product at our expense, while promptly sending you replacement products, again at our expense. Although we have very few product quality issues, we want to be sure you are not inconvenienced further by our mistake.

Product Performace & Support

Once the product is installed how long does it take for them to adhere to the wall?

The bond is immediate upon contact with a clean trailer or container wall. The bond increases most substantially over the first hour and then reaches its peak at three days.

In normal temperatures, how long will your product stay on the wall?

For years! However, our products are specifically designed for one use.

Under certain conditions, we have had problems adhering your product to the sidewalls of our trailers?

We use a special two-sided tape as part of our patented process of securing our products to the sidewalls of trailers and containers. This tape has been proven to successfully bond and hold under extreme conditions of both heat and cold. Although the tape holds immediately upon contact, it is designed to increase in strength over time if the sidewall is clean and dry when our product is installed. For this reason, be sure and follow all installation instructions, including wiping down the side walls and ensuring that they are dry and free of dust and dirt at the time of installation. For more information, please contact your sales rep.

Are you continually testing your products to stay up on the latest trailer wall types?

Yes! Our Research & Development team is always testing and collaborating with customers and staying on top of industry trends.
