Shipping Policy
Custom Paper Ltd. (“Custom Paper”, “we” and “us”) is the operator of the website (https://www.custompaper.ca) and the customer portal (both referred to as “Website”). By placing an order through our Website you agree to the terms below. This policy ensures both parties are aware of and agree upon this arrangement to mutually protect and set expectations on our service.
General
We stock hundreds of items and manufacture hundreds more which are either generally not stocked items or are Custom Manufactured. We endeavor to have an expedient shipping program where most shipments leave our facility in 1 – 2 days of receipt of order. If there is an item which we are not able to fulfill on your order immediately, we will work to create the item in as quick a time frame as is possible. This may result in products being backordered for later shipping.
Shipping Costs
Shipping costs for customers who have prepaid freight will have all costs of freight included with the price of the goods on the invoice so long as prepaid minimums are met. If the order amount is below the prepaid minimum additional freight charges will be applied as they are incurred. For customers without prepaid freight, we will ship your product using one of our freight carriers, and add the cost of freight to your invoice. Should you wish to use your own freight carrier or own account please inform us of this and we accommodate the request, and whereby you will be responsible for paying the freight costs.
