Shipping Policy for Miami Containers LLC

This Shipping Policy applies to shipping containers and related products purchased directly from Miami Containers LLC through our website, by email, by telephone, through an invoice, or through another authorized ordering method.

It applies to new, one-trip, used, cargo-worthy, wind and watertight, High Cube, refrigerated, open-side, double-door, modified, and specialty shipping containers unless a separate written delivery agreement states otherwise.

Standard container delivery is completed within a maximum of 5–7 business days after all order requirements have been completed.

The delivery period begins on the first business day after:

Miami Containers LLC charges a standard flat-rate shipping fee of $650 per eligible order. The shipping fee will be displayed on the quotation, invoice, checkout page, or written order confirmation before payment is completed.

The $650 flat rate covers standard transportation and normal unloading at an accessible delivery site. It does not automatically include specialized modification work, storage after a failed delivery, permits, site preparation, foundations, utility disconnection, road closures, police escorts, or third-party construction services.

An order is not scheduled for delivery until Miami Containers LLC has received cleared payment, confirmed product availability, verified the delivery address, and approved the supplied access information.

After the order has been approved, the customer may receive a confirmation containing:

• Container size, type, condition, and quantity.
• Delivery address and customer contact information.
• The $650 flat-rate shipping charge.
• Estimated delivery date or delivery window.
• Placement and cargo-door orientation instructions.
• Any approved modifications or special order details.

Customers must review the confirmation and promptly report incorrect information. Miami Containers LLC is not responsible for delays caused by incomplete or inaccurate details supplied by the customer.

Delivery dates and time windows may be communicated by email, telephone, text message, or through the transportation provider. Unless expressly confirmed in writing, a delivery time is an estimated arrival window rather than a guaranteed appointment time.

The customer or an authorized adult representative must be available at the delivery location to:

• Confirm the final placement location.
• Direct the driver where it is safe to unload.
• Inspect the container after unloading.
• Sign any delivery documentation when requested.
• Ensure children, animals, vehicles, and unauthorized persons remain clear.

If the customer cannot attend, written placement instructions must be provided before the delivery date. Delivery without the customer present remains subject to safe access and the driver’s reasonable judgment.

The customer is responsible for ensuring the delivery location is safe, accessible, stable, and suitable for the delivery vehicle, unloading method, and shipping container.

Containers are unloaded using the method arranged for the order, which may include a tilt-bed, roll-off trailer, crane, side loader, or another suitable delivery vehicle.

The customer must identify the preferred placement position and cargo-door direction before unloading begins. Once the container has been unloaded and the delivery vehicle has departed, the flat-rate shipping charge does not include moving or repositioning the container.

Exact placement is not guaranteed when site conditions, equipment limitations, obstacles, safety requirements, ground conditions, or applicable laws prevent the driver from placing the container in the customer’s preferred position.

Customers should inspect the container as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and before altering, loading, painting, repairing, or modifying it.

The inspection should include:

Used containers may have dents, scratches, paint variations, previous labels, repairs, patches, surface corrosion, and other cosmetic signs of service. These characteristics are not automatically considered shipping damage or defects.

Miami Containers LLC aims to complete standard delivery within the stated maximum of 5–7 business days. If we become unable to ship within the promised period, we will contact the customer using the available contact information.

Where required, the customer will be offered the opportunity to:

Possible causes of delivery disruption may include severe weather, hurricanes, flooding, road closures, transportation breakdowns, carrier availability, government action, safety restrictions, emergencies, or other circumstances outside reasonable operational control.

A delivery may be treated as unsuccessful when:

• The address provided is incorrect or incomplete.
• The customer or authorized representative is unavailable.
• Site access is narrower, lower, weaker, or more restricted than disclosed.
• The ground is unsafe, unstable, flooded, soft, or obstructed.
• The requested placement cannot be completed safely.
• The customer refuses delivery without a legally valid reason.
• A permit, authorization, gate code, or access approval is missing.

When an unsuccessful delivery results from inaccurate information, unsuitable access, customer unavailability, or a site condition outside our responsibility, the original shipping charge may be nonrefundable. Any redelivery, storage, waiting time, return transportation, or specialized equipment must be authorized and paid before another delivery attempt.

Requests to change the delivery address, container type, container size, delivery date, unloading method, or placement instructions must be sent before the order is dispatched.

A requested change is not effective until confirmed in writing by Miami Containers LLC. Changes requested after dispatch may not be possible and may require cancellation, rescheduling, or additional transportation costs.

The customer is responsible for determining whether local zoning approval, building permits, homeowners’ association approval, landlord permission, environmental approval, or other authorization is required before a container is delivered or installed.

Miami Containers LLC does not guarantee that a shipping container may legally be placed or used at a particular property. Delivery does not constitute confirmation that the customer has obtained the required approvals.

Unless a written sales agreement states otherwise, title and risk of loss will transfer in accordance with the applicable delivery terms, the type of shipping contract, and Florida law.

For destination deliveries arranged by Miami Containers LLC, risk of loss generally remains with the seller until the container is tendered at the agreed destination in a manner that enables the customer to take delivery, subject to applicable law and any written contract terms.

Risk of loss does not excuse either party from responsibility for its own breach, negligence, intentional misconduct, or failure to comply with the written order requirements.

Miami Containers LLC will not be liable for a delivery delay or failure caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including severe weather, hurricanes, flooding, fire, natural disasters, labor disruption, carrier interruption, road closure, governmental action, civil emergency, war, terrorism, epidemic, utility failure, equipment breakdown, or similar events.

This section does not remove any cancellation, refund, notification, or other nonwaivable right provided by applicable law.

This Shipping Policy is governed by and interpreted according to the laws of the State of Florida and applicable United States federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Any dispute relating to this Shipping Policy, an order, or a delivery shall be handled in accordance with the dispute-resolution and governing-law provisions contained in the applicable Terms and Conditions or written sales agreement.

Nothing in this Policy limits a consumer right or remedy that cannot lawfully be waived.

Miami Containers LLC may update this Shipping Policy to reflect changes in delivery operations, carrier requirements, business practices, costs, service areas, technology, or applicable laws.

Changes will apply prospectively from the effective date displayed on the updated Policy. Shipping terms confirmed for an existing paid order will not be changed retroactively unless agreed in writing or required by law.
