Shipping Policy
Free Ground Shipping
TintWorld.com offers FREE regular ground shipping for most products over $100! Most orders are shipped within 24 – 48 hours of your order confirmation. Shipping times will vary depending on the size of the package and the delivery location. Small and medium-sized packages generally are delivered within 2 – 7 business days from the date of shipment, within the continental United States. Orders containing oversize items such as, bumpers, doors, hoods, or other large parts that require Truck Freight Shipments may still qualify for free shipping, however, these items require special handling and delivery times usually range from 2 – 9 business days. (See Truck Freight information below.) While we are happy to offer products to customers located in Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and other areas outside the continental United States, a shipping charge will apply and delivery times will be longer.
Next Day and 2-Day Shipping
Next-Day and 2-Day shipping are available for most small and medium-sized packages for additional charges. All orders must be received before 5:00 PM Eastern Time (2:00 PM Pacific Time) Mondays to Fridays for Next-Day and 2-Day delivery. Airfreight carriers reserve the right to extend delivery time by 24 hours when delivering to residential addresses, which is beyond our control. Airfreight charges will NOT be refunded. There are no Next-Day or 2-Day deliveries on Saturdays, Sundays, and Holidays. When placing your order for Next-Day and 2-Day delivery on a weekend or a holiday, the shipping cycle for these orders will begin on the next available business day.
Truck Freight Shipping
Truck Freight shipping applies to orders consisting of large parts or items that require special handling due to their size, shape, weight or packaging and require to be sent by Truck Freight delivery. Orders usually are processed for shipment within 24 – 48 hours from confirmation of your order. Delivery may take 2 – 7 business days from their date of shipment (excluding weekends and holidays), within the continental United States. The Truck Freight carrier representative will call you to schedule a convenient time to deliver your item(s). Someone may be required to be present to sign for the delivery with required ID verification, and the signor must be 18 years of age.
Truck Freight orders will be delivered on trailer truck type vehicle and require a reasonable delivery access area for the driver to safely maneuver the vehicle. The driver is only required to deliver your order to the curbside. Inside delivery is not available and it may be necessary for someone to assist the delivery driver to safely unload your order if a lift gate is not available or requested. If you cannot provide proper delivery access or assistance, you can request to pick up your order at the freight company’s loading dock at no additional charge.
Shipping Charges
We offer several convenient shipping options. To see all available shipping options and rates, simply add the items you want to purchase to your cart and proceed through checkout. All shipping options and their charges will be available at checkout before you place the order. Shipping and handling charges are calculated based on shipping service, dimension, weight, and the destination of the merchandise. We are not responsible for shipping delays that may occur due to adverse weather conditions, train derailment, incorrect routing by the shipping carrier, incorrect deliveries, or other delays beyond our control.
Order Tracking
It usually it takes 24-hours for the shipping carrier to update the tracking information after your item(s) was shipped. If the shipping carrier has not updated your tracking information in that time, please contact us to verify the shipping address that we have on file and we will communicate this information to the shipping carrier. You can “Track Order” online in “Your Account”, or contact your Store Customer Service at 1-800-767-8468.
Multiple Deliveries
Your ordered item(s) will be shipped to you directly from the manufacturer(s) or from one or more of our multiple warehouse distribution centers located across the U.S. closest to your delivery address. If you order multiple items and received only some of them, there may be cases where we have to ship the items from multiple locations that will cause multiple deliveries. Some products are custom-made and will require additional manufacturing time. We make every effort to ship all products in a single shipment, however, if for any reason we cannot ship your ordered items together, we will ship the items that are available and credit your account accordingly.
Delivery Risk of Loss
All items purchased from our website are made pursuant to our shipping terms, which are F.O.B. shipping point. This means that risk of loss and title of any item is passed to you at the shipping point, which is when the carrier accepts the goods for transport. We are not responsible for losses as a result of packages being left in your absence. It is your responsibility to have someone present at time of delivery. You can track your order online in “Your Account” or contact us to obtain a tracking number to find out when your delivery is scheduled. If your package is left by the shipper unsigned or signed fraudulently and is lost, you will not be reimbursed. However, we will assist you in filing a lost or damage claim with the shipper, but the decision for the claim is based solely on their information, findings, and policy.
Before filing a claim, consider checking around your property for packages that may have been placed out of sight and check with your neighbors to see if your package was accidentally delivered to their address. If you still cannot locate the package, you will need to call the shipper to notify the driver who will return to your address within 24 hours. If the driver cannot locate the package, a claim will be made with the shipper and can take roughly 30 days to settle. We are not responsible for replacing any lost orders based on your claim processing. All replacement items will need to be reordered and paid, until your claim is settled.
Cancellation Policy
If you are unsure about placing an order for ANY reason, please contact our Customer Service at 1-888-944-8468 for assistance before placing your order. We cannot stop an order once it has been placed. All orders are processed immediately after the order is confirmed, so the time to cancel is limited. All orders must be canceled BEFORE you receive the email Invoice Payment Confirmation and cannot be canceled after payment has been confirmed. All orders placed on Fridays after 5:00 PM to Mondays 9:00 PM Eastern Time (2:00 PM Pacific Time) cannot be canceled, because they are processed over the weekend for shipment.
Shipping Damage

Have the shipper immediately return it to sender. Once the order is refused, please promptly contact our Customer Service at 1-800-767-8468 within 24 hours to inform us of your order refusal, so we can assist with the claim and process a replacement order.
If the shipper has left a damaged package in your absence or if you later find that there is missing, damaged or incorrect parts “concealed damage,” immediately contact the shipper and have the package returned to the sender. Then promptly contact our Customer Service at 1-800-767-8468 within 24 hours to inform us of your order refusal, so we can assist with the claim and process a replacement order.
