Tax

Will I be charged sales tax?

Dine Company charges sales tax on orders shipping to most states. These states are subject to change at any time and without notice.

Sales tax may apply in additional states on items shipped from manufacturers with a nexus (economic presence) in the ship to state. Upon order processing, we will do our best to access and inform when this tax may occur, however each state and manufacturer differ meaning you may incur sales tax on a drop shipment.

Sales and usage tax laws vary from state to state and may change at any time. It is the customer’s responsibility to pay sales and usage tax according to their state and local tax code policies. Internet purchases, particularly dropships directly from manufacturers, may be accessed retroactively should a manufacturer or local municipality enforce the remittance of sales tax. Dine Company will do our best to make every effort to inform you and keep our policy terms and conditions updated annually or when a sweeping change occurs.

What if my business is tax exempt?

Tax exempt entities including schools, churches, and non-profits can checkout on our site without tax. Resellers purchasing to sell the same items from their business can also checkout without tax.

In order to qualify for tax exemption, Dine Company will need to have a completed tax exemption form from the state where the order is shipping. The form can be emailed to web@dinecompany.com or faxed to 502-637-5177 with attention to Tax Exempt Web Sales.

You will need to create an online account and let us know when the account has been created so we can mark it as exempt.

Exempt customers in Kentucky and Indiana can download the tax exempt forms at the following links:

Shipping

When will my order ship?

Processing time will depend on several factors – product stock, special orders, dropshipping, and shipping carrier to name a few. We will notify you by email if there are any delays in processing your order for shipment.

How much will I pay for shipping?

A simple shipping calculator requiring only state and zip code is available in the cart.

Which shipping carrier will deliver my order?

Most orders shipped from Dine Company will be sent by UPS or USPS. Large freight items or large quantities of items requiring a pallet will be sent by a carrier of our choosing.

Regional customers may take delivery through a courier service. Local customer deliveries may be handled directly by Dine Company.

Orders dropshipped directly from manufacturers will ship with a carrier of their choosing.

Will you ship to a PO Box?

As long as the order meets our requirements for shipping with USPS, we can ship to a PO Box. If the order must ship with UPS, we will reach out by email to obtain an alternative address for shipping.

Will you ship to my house?

The vast majority of our products can ship to a residence. A signature may be required at delivery for high value shipments.

We do not ship any products which ship on a pallet to a residence. If you are ordering these products for use at your residence, we will work with you to find a local freight terminal in your area. We will ship to the freight terminal where you can travel to pick-up the products.

What is a liftgate?

A liftgate is a device on the back of a semi trailer that is used to lower pallets down to the ground.

A liftgate is offered on shipments weighing over 150 lbs. Unless you have a dock or forklift, a liftgate is highly recommended to lower heavy equipment down from a semi trailer.

Even with liftgate delivery for freight items, the truck driver is only required to put the items on the ground where the truck can go. Unfortunately, the truck may not be able to get to your door, in which case, the driver will place the items as close to the door as possible. The driver is not required to move the items to your door or inside your building. The driver is also not required to unpack any items.

Do you offer inside delivery?

Dine Company offers inside delivery in areas where available for an additional charge beyond standard shipping. If interested, please email us at web@dinecompany.com with the details of your order including model numbers, quantities, and the shipping address and we will reply with a shipping quote.

Local customers within Dine Company’s delivery area can receive inside delivery with installation. Email us at web@dinecompany.com for more information.

Do you ship internationally?

We only ship within the US. We do not ship to freight forwarders who ship outside the country.

For products shipped on a pallet through a freight carrier:

  • All shipments should be thoroughly inspected upon delivery.
  • Refuse the shipment if the product is damaged beyond repair. If damage is minimal and can be repaired, please note the damage on the driver’s paperwork, take pictures of the damage and packaging and send them to web@dinecompany.com along with your order number. Please contact us at 866-591-3463 to ensure we received your email. The refused product will be returned and a replacement will be sent.
  • If concealed damage was discovered after the driver left, contact us within 24 hours of delivery at 866-591-3463. We will request pictures of the damage and packaging. If a product with concealed damage must be returned, you may be responsible for getting the product ready to ship.
  • In either case, we will start a freight claim. Quick reporting of freight damage is important in the freight claim process.
