Payment Policy

At Universal Containers LLC, we are committed to providing transparent, secure, and straightforward payment terms to ensure a smooth purchasing experience. Please review this policy carefully before placing an order.

Accepted Payment Methods

We accept the following payment methods:

• Bank Wire Transfer

• ACH Transfer

• Credit/Debit Cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover)

Credit card payments may be subject to processing fees, which will be clearly disclosed prior to payment.

We do not accept Cash on Delivery (COD) due to the nature, value, and logistics involved in shipping freight equipment.

By prior written approval only, we may accept:

• Cashier’s checks

• Certified bank checks

Conditions for checks:

• Must be issued by a recognized U.S. financial institution

• Funds must fully clear before any container is released or delivered

• Personal or standard business checks are not accepted unless explicitly approved in advance

Payment Terms

• Full payment is required prior to container release or delivery, unless otherwise agreed to in writing.

• Orders will not be scheduled for delivery until payment has been received and cleared.

• For certain orders, a split-payment option may be approved, consisting of:

  • 50% payment upfront

  • 50% due upon confirmed delivery

• Custom or modified containers may require a non-refundable deposit before work begins, with the remaining balance due prior to delivery.

Payment Processing & Security

• All payments are processed through secure and reputable payment gateways.

• Credit card information is encrypted during transmission and is not stored on our servers.

• A temporary authorization hold may be placed on card payments to verify funds; this hold is released according to your bank’s policies.

• Charges are finalized once the order is confirmed and scheduled for delivery.

We reserve the right to pause or cancel any transaction if suspicious or potentially fraudulent activity is detected.

Pricing & Quotes

• All prices are listed in U.S. Dollars (USD).

• Prices are based on current inventory, market conditions, and logistics availability.

• Written quotes are valid for a limited time and may change if payment is not received within the quoted period.

• Prices do not include applicable taxes, delivery fees, site preparation, or special handling unless explicitly stated in writing.

Refunds & Cancellations

• Refunds and returns are governed by our Return & Refund Policy.

• If a refund is approved, it will be issued using the original payment method, less any applicable fees.

• Refunds typically process within 10 business days.

• Orders canceled after shipment may be subject to return shipping and handling costs.

Disputes & Chargebacks

Customers agree to contact Universal Containers LLC directly to resolve billing concerns before initiating a chargeback. Unauthorized or unjustified chargebacks may result in additional fees, order suspension, or account restrictions.
