Shipments: Freight charges for FedEx and UPS can be chosen in the cart. You must enter your zip code or be logged in, to see your options for expediting delivery and the cost for each method.
We can not provide shipping charges for oversized items, items drop shipped from the manufacturer, and items shipping outside the U.S. Final shipping charges will be added at the time the order ships.
Orders that include drop-shipped items (i.e. chemicals) may be charged separate
shipping and handling fees.
If a shipping method is not specified, we will determine the most expedient and efficient means of shipment. Appropriate charges (such as freight and insurance), provided by the various carriers used by Cole-Parmer, will be added to your invoice. These charges are determined (at time of shipment) by product plus packaging weight, overall package dimensions, as well as any other special shipping requirements, such as HAZMAT materials. Your final shipping costs may differ.
Cole-Parmer will not be liable for any claim,
loss, or damage caused in whole or in part
due to delay in or failure to make delivery
when such delay or failure is directly or
indirectly caused by act of God; strike or
other labor difficulty; transportation problems;
inability or delay in obtaining necessary labor,
material or products from usual sources;
material shortages; accident; act of any civil
or military authority; act of war; or act of
purchaser; or by the occurrence of any other
contingency beyond Cole-Parmers reasonable
control. In such event, the date of delivery
or time for completion shall be postponed
by such length of time as may be reasonably
necessary to compensate for the delay.
Minimum Order: We appreciate all orders, so there is no minimum order requirement.
