Why was my order delayed or cancelled?

Please refer to our Shipping Policy for general guidelines on when to expect your order.  Please note that sometimes orders may be delayed or canceled for the following reasons:

 

Products are out of stock.  We offer a very large inventory of products, but occasionally items are out of stock.  If you have ordered an out of stock item, it typically takes 5-7 business days for the item to ship.  Customers will be notified of this delay upon placing the order.

There is a shipping delay.  Occasionally shipments may be delayed by UPS, USPS, or FedEx.  These delays can be due to weather, power outages, or other issues.  Gates Flag & Banner Company is not responsible for any delays incurred once a package leaves our location. .

Products are no longer available.  Although very rare, occasionally products are discontinued.  In the event that a product is no longer available our knowledgeable staff will provide you with a similar product alternative.

Customers are responsible for providing the correct Ship-To address.  Failure to do so may lead to further delays.  If you are experiencing a delay, please feel free to track your package here. It is always our goal to provide you with quality products in a timely manner.  If you have any questions, please contact us at 1-800-874-1776 or request@gatesflag.com.

 

Why is my order arriving in multiple shipments?

Depending on the size and availability of the items in your order, orders may be shipped in multiple packages.  If you have questions about your shipment, please contact us at 1-800-874-1776 or request@gatesflag.com.

Orders may be changed or canceled before the shipping process begins.  In order to change or cancel, please contact us by calling 1-800-874-1776 or emailing request@gatesflag.com and referencing your original order number.   If the item has already been pulled for shipment, please note that you may incur a 15% restocking fee.  Once an order has shipped, customers must follow the Return Policy to return or exchange an item.
