Delivery Methods
|
"Standard Shipping" |
Free to our customers. Ships via LTL freight truck with a liftgate. Palletized and delivered curbside. Does not include setup, assembly, or the disposal of packaging. |
|
"Standard Parcel" |
Free to our customers. Ships via common carrier (e.g., FedEx, UPS, USPS). |
|
Upgrade: "Threshold/Inside Property" |
Available at checkout on certain products for an additional charge. The freight carrier will cross the property line (i.e., the threshold) and lower the pallet at the first dry area (e.g., garage, covered porch). |
Hard-to-Reach Addresses
Most LTL carriers use a standard 28-foot trailer, and it is the driver's discretion if they can safely drive down a particular street. For hard-to-reach addresses (i.e., narrow street access) or unusual driveway configurations, some carriers may charge extra or require the shipment to be "rescued" by a different carrier. If this happens, we'll relay the additional cost for which you are responsible.
Help prevent an unplanned extra cost by using the Order & Delivery Instructions box on your Cart page to tell us about any potential delivery considerations before the order is ready to ship.

Misc. Delivery Terms

| Delivery Appt. & Holds/Storage | Similar to furniture deliveries, the carrier may call you before delivery to schedule drop off. If you commit to an appointment and are not present to accept delivery, or if you confirm a delivery date and subsequently reschedule, a re-delivery fee may be charged for which you are responsible. If the carrier must hold your pallet beyond their standard courtesy period, you are responsible for any storage fees. If a shipment is at risk of being returned to the design studio because you cannot be reached, Fountainful may update the service level to No Signature Required to spare you from shipping costs should a pallet be returned. |
| Change of Address | Any fee charged by the carrier for a change/re-consign of the original delivery address is your responsibility. |
| Forklift | Only a few items require a forklift and they're designated as such on the product page. If ordering a "forklift required" product, plan ahead by contacting a local contractor or small equipment rental outfit (e.g., Home Depot, Lowes). |
Always inspect your delivery. See the Refund Policy for a Delivery Inspection Checklist.
Shaped By Nature
The stones featured in the Natural Collection of fountains, bird baths, and garden benches contain variations in both color and texture. No two are alike, as each piece is unique and “imperfect” in its own way. Any stone quarried from the earth possesses its own inherent beauty.
These variations mean every piece of quarried stone is beautiful, valuable, and one-of-a-kind and will not be an exact match to photographic media.
The “imperfections” created by these variations simply add to the natural beauty & uniqueness of your piece!

Delivery Inspection Checklist for LTL/Freight Shipments
Before You Sign for Delivery
- Review paperwork to confirm it is in fact your order.
- Look for signs of possible exterior damage even before opening the crate (e.g., ripped shrink-wrap, a broken or open pallet).
- Refuse the shipment IF the damage is very bad, including items poking out of the crate, visible damage to the interior contents, or if it's obvious the pallet fell off the truck.
If Damage is Found
- The driver won't be able to wait for a full inspection of the contents.
- Write what exterior damage you see onto the paperwork before signing. The paperwork is sometimes called Bill of Lading (BOL) or Delivery Receipt.
- BE SPECIFIC, even about anything that looks out of place. Example: Pallet arrived open, potential damage to contents.
- Sign the paperwork and ensure a copy is retained by both you and the driver.
Photograph the Damage
- Take clear photo(s) of the damaged or suspected areas.
- Take a photo of your signed paperwork.
- Remit photos to Fountainful immediately, with a description of the delivery experience.
If you set up the product and later attempt a claim, it will be denied by the freight carrier and you will be responsible for the cost of replacement pieces and reshipment.

Questions & Answers
Have a Question?
-
What is the depth of the basalt slab?
While each slab is drilled and shaped by hand (creating slight variance in total depth from slab to slab), the average depth in the center of the bowled area is 0.5" – 1.0". The water pools at a very usable depth for most bird species.
-
How long is the power cord on the pump, and does it require a dedicated outlet?
Thank you for the question! The pump on this fountain has a 20-foot power cord and can plug into any standard 3-prong outlet. To learn more about these energy efficient magnetic-drive pumps, see the Mag Drive Pump Manual in the Resources & Manuals section above.
