Shipping & Delivery

  • 1. Order Confirmation

    Right after checkout you receive an email summarizing your purchase, billing & shipping details, and order number. Keep this message handy—it’s your receipt and first reference point.

  • 2. Processing

    Our team verifies payment, allocates stock, and preps the paperwork. If anything stalls (e.g., back‑order), we’ll reach out by phone or email with options.

  • 3. Packing & Labeling

    Products are securely boxed or palletized, then matched with the best carrier: small parcels go UPS/FedEx/USPS; bulky items ride LTL freight. Lead‑time estimates live on every product page.

  • 4. Shipping & Tracking

    As soon as your label prints, you’ll get a “Shipment on the way” email with tracking and a Bill of Lading (for freight). Follow the link to watch each scan in real time.

  • 5. Delivery

    • Small packages: arrive at your door with no signature required.
    • Freight: the local terminal calls to book a curbside appointment. Be present to sign, inspect, and note any damage before the driver leaves.
  • 6. Inspection, Support & Setup

    Open every box within 2‑3 days. If parts are missing or damaged, snap photos/video and email help@myfitnessoutlet.com—we’ll fast‑track replacements. Need assembly? Confirm your service date or tackle setup yourself.

Do you offer a money‑back guarantee?

Yes. Try any product for 30 days. If it isn’t the perfect fit, return it in original condition for a full refund—no restocking fees. (Shipping fees apply only if the return isn’t due to our error or freight damage.)

Are your products covered by a warranty?

Absolutely. Every brand we carry comes with the manufacturer’s warranty—minimum 1 year, often longer on frames and motors. We’re an authorized dealer, so your warranty is 100 % valid. Need help with a claim? Our support team handles all paperwork for you.

Will you price‑match another store?

Yes. If you find an identical item in stock at a lower delivered price, send us the quote or link before you buy and we’ll match it. Our Price‑Match Guarantee protects you for 60 days after purchase as well.

Can I finance my order?

We partner with Shop Pay Installments to offer 0 % APR promos (on approved credit). Choose “Pay Monthly” at checkout to split the total into 3–24 equal payments—no hidden fees.

How long will my order take to arrive?

Processing: 1–3 business days. Transit: 3–14 business days for most U.S. addresses.
Need a precise ETA or have a deadline? Chat with us and we’ll confirm stock and carrier schedules before you buy.

Can I change or cancel my order after checkout?

Yes—if it hasn’t shipped yet. Contact us within 12 hours (small parcels) or before the Bill of Lading is generated (freight) and we’ll adjust or cancel at no cost. Once an item is in transit, standard return terms apply.

Do you provide inside delivery or assembly?

Standard freight is curbside. If you’d like room‑of‑choice delivery, white‑glove setup, or haul‑away of packaging, let us know—these services can be scheduled for an added fee at checkout or any time before the shipment reaches your local terminal.

Do you give discounts on bulk or commercial orders?

Yes. Gyms, hotels, schools, PT clinics, and corporate wellness centers qualify for volume pricing, custom quotes, and flexible NET 30 terms. Contact our commercial team at sales@myfitnessoutlet.com.
