1. Site NavigationContainerandpackaging.com consists of eight "departments" or sections: Catalog section, Clearance section, Cosmetics section, Candles section, Food Storage, Packaging Wizard section, Information, and Decoration.Every page in containerandpackaging.com contains links on the left-side menu to the Home pages of each of these sections. Links to the largest of these sections are also found on the top menu of each page. Within each section, menus on the left side of the page are provided for navigation within that section. For example, the Information section has a menu with links to pages such as: FAQ's, Site Map, Privacy Statement, Policy Statements, Contact Information, etc. Pages within the Catalog, Clearance, Cosmetic and Candle sections include "bread crumb" links that build across the top of the page just below the top menu. These links keep track of pages you move through within the catalogs, allow you to navigate back to earlier pages easily. The catalog provides links to each category of containers we offer. By clicking on a category link, you will be presented with sub categories. Click on the sub category link to be presented with a list of pictures and item numbers for specific items in our catalog. By clicking on a link in this item list, you will be presented with detailed information about a specific container or closure as well as pricing information and an "Add to Cart" Button. At this point, you may order items and proceed to checkout. If you are having troubles deciding which container best suits your product, try using our Packaging Wizard. This program will ask you three questions and present you with a list of appropriate containers that will better match your product.

3. ShippingWe ship a majority of our orders through UPS. Orders are processed in 1 to 3 business days. UPS shipments should arrive to any point within the continental United States within 5-7 business days after the allotted 1-3 business days for processing. Large orders requiring the involvement of a shipping/trucking company will be determined on a case by case basis. As stated in this website, we cannot guarantee glass shipped UPS. We package glass in such a way that it should be well protected under normal shipping conditions.Please Note: We cannot ship using customer UPS account numbers as a general rule. On occasion, customers ship using their UPS account and fail to pay their UPS bill. In these situations, we are charged for the UPS freight to and from our customer. In the event that it is necessary to ship using our customer's UPS account number, we require a signed and faxed statement, wherein the customer states that Container & Packaging Supply is authorized to use their UPS account number AND that Container & Packaging Supply is authorized to charge any shipping costs that come back to CPS on a customer provided credit card. |

14. Shopping Cart phone numberOur database creates customer accounts for everyone that orders from our store. This allows us to track your packages, and find your order information when you call in with questions. In order to ensure that we can find information about your account when you call, we need to keep all your orders within one customer account. By using the same phone number each time you order, your orders will all be kept within the same customer account. |

15. Printed boxesIn order to do our part to keep landfills as ecologically friendly as possible, we often order misprinted corrugated boxes from a local box manufacturer. These boxes would end up in landfills without ever being used, so we buy these boxes to ensure they are used at least once before being disposed of. In a small way, this helps keep landfills from filling up as quickly. Use of these packages also help keep the cost of shipping and handling down, allowing us to pass these savings on to our customers. |

16. Scuffed Bottles and JarsBottles and jars made from PET plastic often get scuffs and scratches during shipping. This occurs even during shipping from a manufacturer to our warehouse. This is due to the nature of PET plastic. It is virtually impossible to ship PET plastic without getting scuffs or scratches. We have found, however, that most customers can cover scuffs with labels or other forms of custom decoration, and once filled with product, most scuffs and scratches become invisible. Please be advised that PET plastic is susceptible to these markings. |
|
17. Will Calls:Will Call is available as a shipping option for zip codes near one of our warehousing locations. If your zip code is located in a Will Call zone, the option to come pick up (or will call) your order will be available in the shopping cart in the "Select Shipping" box.Occasionally, a qualifying zip code will not offer Will Call as a shipping option. This happens when part of your order is not available from your will call warehouse and the order, or part of the order must be shipped from another warehouse. Items not available from your will call warehouse will display in your cart with the message "Not available for Will Call". When this happens, you may either have the entire order shipped to you, or remove the unavailable items from your cart, and Will Call will then be an available option. You may then create a second cart order to have the unavailable items shipped to you from another warehouse. If you have questions about how to place a Will Call order through our shopping cart, please call 1 800 473-4144 and we will help you place your order. |
|
18. Changing Shipping Addresses:Freight costs are calculated based on the zip or postal code to which an order is shipping. When you change your Shipping Address, you may be changing your postal code, and freight is recalculated from our warehouse to your new postal code.When freight charges change, you may be redirected to your shopping cart page to verify, and/or reselect your shipping method. This will give you an opportunity to note the change in cost. |
