Shipping Large Shutters: How We Protect Your Order in Transit

Shipping Large Shutters: How We Protect Your Order in Transit

We get it—ordering large custom shutters online can feel like a leap of faith. At High Springs Shutter Co., we take shipping seriously. Every shutter we send out is packaged with care and shipped via UPS Ground, so you can feel confident your order will arrive safe, secure, and on time.

📦 How We Package Our Shutters for Safe Delivery

Our custom shutters—especially larger pieces—require extra attention when it comes to packaging. That’s why we’ve developed a reliable and efficient system using:

  • Reinforced Cardboard Wrapping
      We wrap the entire stack in double-wall cardboard, providing crush protection and stability during handling.

  • PVC Spacers Between Shutters
      Shutters are stacked with small PVC spacer strips between each one. These act as structural supports to prevent flexing or cracking during shipment.

  • Secure Taping and Labeling
     Each package is sealed tightly and clearly labeled to ensure smooth handling by UPS from our shop to your doorstep.

🚚 Why We Use UPS Ground

We ship all our orders through UPS Ground because they offer:

  • Reliable tracking from start to finish

  • Faster delivery times than freight in many cases

  • Nationwide coverage, even for oversized packages

  • Easy residential delivery, with no need for freight coordination or liftgate services

For most orders, UPS Ground allows us to deliver straight to your door without the hassle of freight carriers.

🛠 Quality Checks Before Shipping

Before we package your shutters, we do a full hands-on inspection to ensure:

  • Your custom cutouts are clean and accurate

  • Surfaces are smooth and ready to paint or install

  • All pieces are free of defects or warping

Only once everything passes inspection do we begin packaging your order for shipment.

📷 What If Something Goes Wrong?

We rarely have issues, but if your package arrives damaged, we’ve got you covered.
Just snap a few photos of the damaged item and the packaging, and reach out to us right away. We’ll take care of the claim with UPS and work on getting you a quick resolution.
