Re-Delivery Fee(s) may also result on a 2nd or 3rd delivery attempt. Some online orders that are purchased through our online checkout system may require additional or standard shipping fees once the order has been received: You will be notified via phone or e-mail of any additional charges before your order is processed for shipment. High Volume / Bulk Orders Additionally, bulk orders can take advantage of more favorable shipping rates by calling for a quote request and volume discount.

We will do our very best to inform our customers via e-mail or phone if any of the products in their order are delayed or on back order. Otherwise your order will ship automatically as soon as the new stock arrives in warehouse.

How are your shipping rates calculated?

At Survival Territory, we know how expensive shipping can be that is why we took extra measures to directly link our site to UPS which allows our system to compute the shipping charges during the checkout process based on the ship to destination and the order weight.

Should any orders require additional shipping and handling fees? You will be notified via phone or e-mail of any additional charges before your order has been fully processed for shipment. Return Policy How long do I have to return a purchase?

We want you to be satisfied with your purchase. Please take up to three (3) business days to decide if you would like to keep your purchase. If within that time, you decide to return your purchase you may return the unopened and unused product for a refund, subject to a 20% restocking fee.

We will make every effort to remedy any problems that may arise. Please contact us with any concerns or replacements needed.

Is everything returnable?

Due to the nature of the items that we sell, there would be a safety issue in accepting certain items for return. Therefore, the following products cannot be accepted for return: • Any food or drink product or products containing food or water • Any storage or handling products for food or consumable liquids • Any environmental contamination treatment products (such as water treatment tablets) • All environmental preparedness products (such as N95 respirator masks) • All hygiene and sanitation items • All medical / first-aid products • Opened items and items with damaged product packaging How do I make a return?

What about products with expiration dates?

Our food and water come directly from the manufacturer(s) and we acquire the freshest product with the longest shelf life available. However, we cannot guarantee that these items will have the full shelf life as advertised and indicated from the manufacturer due to manufacturer production schedules, shipping times, and the fact that we have to warehouse these items for interim periods in order to have them available for immediate customer order fulfillment.

We make every effort to provide current and accurate product images and descriptions however manufacturers constantly update and modify their product models.
