Special Order Items
There are no returns allowed for products which have been specially ordered for you and drop shipped by the manufacturer.
These items are not routinely stocked at our warehouse and therefore cannot be returned.
Cancelled Orders
An order that has shipped cannot be cancelled. If you refuse an order, it will then fall under our standard return policy,
where roundtrip-shipping costs will be deducted from your refund.
Damaged Products
You must take the time to inspect the goods before you sign the delivery receipt from the carrier.
- Suspect Damage
On occasion, the outer carton may look damaged, but the product inside the box is perfectly fine. If you suspect concealed
damage, notate "Possible Freight Damage" on the delivery receipt while the driver is present. This way, if you discover later
that the product is damaged, the remedy of a freight claim is less of a hassle.
- Obvious Damage
Do not sign for damaged products. If your product arrives DOA (Dead on Arrival), please (a) REFUSE DELIVERY
and (b) Call Us Immediately so we can process the appropriate claims and coordinate an exchange for you.

Shipping Policies
Most generators exceed the weight limitations of FedEx and UPS Ground. Therefore, manufacturers utilize freight shipping to
ship generators directly to our customers via large commercial semi trucks. The freight carrier is selected by the manufacturer.
Once your order ships, the freight company will call you to schedule the delivery. They will recommend a delivery time, but
you are welcome to modify this recommendation based on your own schedule.
The manufacturers we work with are large concerns that ship multiple items each day. This enables them to attain the best
shipping rates available. MainPowerConnect.com passes these savings on to our customers by providing free shipping to any
commercial or residential address in the continental United States. We will adhere to it even when a freight carrier adds
one-time or unanticipated shipping fees. Try obtaining these terms from another Internet-based generator seller. You will
not find a more customer-friendly policy than ours.
About Lift Gates
Typical delivery trucks are designed to be unloaded at docks, or by forklifts. In other words, they are designed to deliver
to commercial locations where such options are available. By contrast, a lift gate-equipped truck lowers heavy items from the
truck trailer (which can be several feet high) to the ground, using a hydraulic mechanism similar to an elevator. If your
delivery will go to an address not equipped with a loading dock, and you don't have access to a forklift, then selecting
the lift-gate delivery option is a convenient alternative.
Our power equipment can weigh hundreds of pounds. Without access to a loading dock or forklift, unloading one safely may
require several able-bodied individuals. Delivery drivers are NOT required by their companies to help customers unload.
Unless you are certain that a sufficient number of helpers will be available during the delivery, we urge you to specify the
lift-gate shipping option before checking out. Lift-gate service is an option and is NOT included in our Free-Shipping offer.
Residential Deliveries
You need to inform us if your delivery will be going to a residential address. Freight companies need to know this because
large semi trucks can’t service many residential areas. The generator will instead be loaded onto a smaller truck tailored
to home deliveries. A home that serves as a place of business (regardless of the presence of company name/signage), if located
in a residential area, is still considered a residential address for shipping purposes. Please select the residential delivery
option if applicable. MainPowerConnect.com agrees to pay all additional residential delivery costs, but to do so; we must be
properly informed before shipping arrangements are made.
Accessories
All accessories are shipped via UPS Ground. We simply pass along the same amount that the manufactures charges us based on
the weight and destination.
