Sales Tax

We are required by law to collect sales tax for the following states: Connecticut; Georgia; Illinois; Maryland; Massachusetts; Michigan; Minnesota; New Jersey; North Carolina; Pennsylvania; Rhode Island; and Vermont.

Orders picked up at our facility or shipped to Rhode Island or Massachusetts addresses will be charged sales tax unless a tax exemption certificate has been submitted to us. Please contact us if you are a manufacturer or other entity with a valid tax exemption certificate obtained from your state. For more information on tax exemption, please visit https://www.irs.gov/tax-professionals/government-sites.

For internet purchases shipped to states for which we do not collect sales tax, you may be required by law to report such purchases and pay the relevant sales tax. We can supply you with an end-of-year statement to aid you in reporting and paying such taxes. Some states require that we report sales directly to them. For more information on your specific state's tax laws, please visit https://www.irs.gov/tax-professionals/government-sites.

Credit Card Verification

In order to provide the highest level of security when processing your credit card, you will be asked to provide a card verification number. This number appears on the back side of your credit card just above the signature line (front side for American Express cards). Card verification helps to eliminate credit card fraud.

Payment Security

Our website uses state-of-the-art SSL encryption to ensure that your credit card number and other information submitted during the checkout process will be protected. For more information, see our Security & Privacy Policy page.
