Shipping Information & Order Status

How much is shipping?

Orders over $99 qualify for free ground shipping to the continental US.

For orders going to AK, HI, or Puerto Rico the shipping costs will vary, depending on what you order. 

What shipping methods do you offer?

We offer ground shipping to the United States and Puerto Rico. Because brakes are heavy it is not economical to ship via expedited services. Our main shipping carrier is UPS, but sometimes we use Fedex. For exceptionally heavy or large orders we may contract with a truck freight company.

Do you have a minimum order?

No, we don't have a minimum order.

Do you offer rush shipping?

If you call in and place your order with one of our representatives rush shipping is available for an extra charge.

How long does it take to process and ship my order?

Orders typically process within one business day. Orders with different Bill To and Ship To addresses may require additional process time for verification and security. NOTE: It is best if the Bill To and Ship To is a match for seamless processing.

We process orders quickly, and shipping takes place Monday-Friday. Shipping is closed on weekends.

How long does shipping take?

General arrival times are quoted on each individual product detail page. We have multiple warehouses throughout the US to ensure the quickest delivery times possible.

If an item is out of stock or if there is a shipping delay due to supply issues or staffing and arrival times are going to take longer than originally expected, we will notify you via email. Please be sure to include a correct email address and phone number, so we can reach you ASAP if we do encounter a delay.

Where are you located?

We are located in Bellingham, WA, but we have a national distribution network. 

Will you provide tracking information?

Yes. After your order has been processed and shipped, tracking information will be sent via email and text. Please note: Tracking numbers are not sent during order confirmation, but when a shipping ticket has been created.

When do you charge my credit card?

We will charge your card as soon as the order is placed. We do this to protect your credit card information; When it's charged at the time of order placement we're not storing your payment info.

If I ordered a part that’s out of stock, when will it ship?

Shortly after you place your order, we will notify you via email or phone on items that are out of stock or oversold, and we will keep those items on order until they ship. We will monitor the backorder status every day (so you don't have to) and send occasional updates via email. As soon as an item ships the tracking number will be sent via email and text.

Can you ship my order to multiple addresses?

No. We will only ship an order to one address. If you require shipping to multiple addresses, please place separate orders for each address.

Do you ship to AK, HI, and US territories?

We do! To get the best rate, please call our shipping professionals at 888-257-7149 before placing your order.

Do you ship to PO Boxes or APOs/FPOs?

No, we don't.

Do you ship internationally?

No, we only ship to US states and Puerto Rico. However, BuyBrakes.com recommends a forwarding service called ShipItTo for Canadian and international orders. You can sign up here: https://www.shipito.com/en/shipito-forwarding-service

What if I never receive an order?

We put a tracking number on everything we ship. Make sure you are available to receve your package. If your package never arrives, contact Buy Brakes customer service and we will contact the shipper to find it. Packages that are delivered and then stolen are not our responsibility. ltyll BuyBrakes.com Customer Service Department at 888-257-7149 to check your tracking information. It is important that you now read the next paragraph which is "Risk of Loss" that directly relates to this subject.

Risk of Loss

All items purchased from BuyBrakes are made pursuant to our shipping terms, which are at the FOB shipping point. This means that risk of loss and title of any item is passed to you at the shipping point, which is when the carrier accepts the goods for transport. We are not directly responsible for lost or stolen packages, but we will be happy to assist you in filing a claim with the shipping company. You must contact us immediately if the entire shipment was not received within two (2) full days of the carrier’s estimated delivery date. All requests must be made within thirty (30) days of the shipment date for any possibility of a claim.

What happens if I refuse the shipment?

Refusing a shipment will subject your return to a 30% restocking fee and is not the ideal way to return a part. Instead, we recommend you accept the shipment and follow our typical returns process if you've decided you no longer want the part(s). Contact us to start the process.
