Shipping

How much does shipping cost?

Nothing. Every order ships free to the 48 contiguous states, no minimum. Freight is built into the price you see, and there are no surprise fuel surcharges or accessorial fees at checkout. Liftgate service is included on every freight delivery.

How long does delivery take?

Standard freight is 12 to 25 business days from the day your order is confirmed. That includes 1 to 2 days of processing at the warehouse plus LTL transit. Orders shipping to a state near one of our warehouses usually land at the shorter end of the range. Use the delivery estimator on the shipping page to see your likely window.

Is there a faster option?

Yes. Express freight is a flat $480 per order and cuts transit to 5 to 15 business days. Your order jumps the processing queue and goes out on a priority lane with the carrier. Select it at checkout or call us to add it to an order that has not shipped yet.

Where do orders ship from?

From whichever of our 6 US warehouses is closest to you and has the item in stock: Indianapolis, IN (HQ), Phoenix, AZ, Ontario, CA, Dallas, TX, Savannah, GA and Allentown, PA. If your nearest warehouse is out of stock we ship from the next closest rather than hold your order.

Do you ship to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico or Canada?

Not at this time. Free freight and Express are available in the 48 contiguous states only. We do not currently ship to Alaska, Hawaii, US territories or outside the United States.

How does freight delivery work?

Heavy equipment ships LTL on a pallet or skid. The carrier calls the phone number on your order to book a delivery appointment. The driver lowers the freight to the ground with a liftgate and delivers to the curb or the end of a truck-accessible driveway. Drivers do not bring equipment inside a building or garage, and someone 18 or older must be present to inspect and sign.

Will I get tracking?

Yes. Once the warehouse hands your order to the carrier you get an email with the carrier name and PRO or tracking number. Freight tracking updates at terminal scans rather than in real time, so a gap of a day or two between updates is normal. Links to every carrier we use are on the track order page.

What if my equipment arrives damaged?

Inspect the shipment before you sign. Photograph any dents, tears, broken banding or crushed packaging, write the damage on the delivery receipt, and email the photos to info@foundryfieldequipment.com within 24 hours. We file the claim with the carrier and arrange repair, replacement parts or a full replacement at no cost to you. Signing a clean receipt on a damaged shipment makes the claim much harder.

Equipment

Are your engines EPA and CARB certified?

Yes. All engine-powered equipment we sell, including Typhon excavators, skid steers, tractors and mowers, is EPA certified and CARB compliant, so it can be sold and registered in all 50 states including California.

What brands do you carry?

Typhon (Terror and Stomp series, Kubota-powered), Atlas, BendPak, Triumph, Tuxedo, Ideal and Alpha Mach. Each brand is listed on the brands page with its category focus and featured models.

Does equipment arrive assembled?

Mostly. Excavators, skid steers and tractors arrive fully assembled and test-run, with fluids filled; you may need to attach the bucket, ROPS or a few bolt-on parts. Car lifts ship as a kit of columns, arms, hydraulic unit and hardware and require assembly and anchoring. Mowers need the seat, handles or discharge chute fitted. Every unit ships with a printed manual.

Do I need to install my lift professionally?

We strongly recommend it. A two-post or four-post lift must be anchored into concrete of the correct thickness and strength and set plumb, and most jurisdictions and insurers expect a certified installer. Our installation guides cover site prep, and we can refer you to an installer in your area.

What concrete do I need for a two-post lift?

A minimum of 4 inches of 3,000 PSI reinforced concrete, cured at least 28 days, level to within 3 degrees. Heavier lifts (12,000 lb and above) generally need 6 inches. Check the spec sheet for your model, and never anchor into asphalt, pavers or a slab with a known crack under the column footprint.

What engines are in Typhon excavators and skid steers?

Typhon Terror and Stomp machines use Kubota diesel engines, chosen for parts availability and service coverage at any Kubota dealer in the US. Smaller 1-ton class units may use a Briggs and Stratton or Kohler gas engine; the product page lists the engine for each model.

Can I use a mini excavator or skid steer on a residential lot?

Yes, that is exactly where 1 to 2.5 ton class machines shine: trenching, grading, stump removal, footings and drainage on lots too tight for full-size equipment. A 1-ton unit fits through a 36 inch gate. Check the machine width on the product page against your access points before you order.

Can you help me pick the right model?

Yes. Call (830) 201-0088 with the job you need to do, the space you have and how often you will run the machine. We will tell you honestly whether a smaller or larger unit fits, and whether a combo deal saves you money.

Do you sell parts and attachments?

Yes. Buckets, thumbs, augers, forks, lift accessories and wear parts are available for the equipment we sell. Email the model and serial number to info@foundryfieldequipment.com for a parts quote. Engine parts for Kubota-powered units are also available through any Kubota dealer.

Financing

Do you offer financing?

Yes, through third-party lending partners. Financing is available on bulk orders of 2 or more units and on full-price (non-discounted) purchases. Applications are reviewed in 1 to 2 business days. Details and the application are on the financing page.

Can I finance a single discounted machine?

No. Financing applies to bulk orders (2+ units) and full-price orders only. A single unit bought at a sale or combo price is not eligible. If you need one financed machine, ask us about the full-price option for that model.

Does applying affect my credit?

The initial review is a soft inquiry that does not affect your score. A hard inquiry only happens if you accept an offer and the lender finalizes the agreement. Final rates and terms are set by the lender, not by Foundry Field Industrial.

Do you accept business or fleet accounts?

Yes. Landscapers, contractors, rental yards, dealers and shops buying multiple units can apply under the business name. We also accept purchase orders from established businesses and government entities on approved credit; email info@foundryfieldequipment.com to set up terms.

Warranty

What warranty comes with my equipment?

Every machine carries a 1-year warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, parts and labor. The warranty can be extended by 1, 2 or 3 additional years; contact us for pricing before or within 30 days of delivery.

How do I file a warranty claim?

Email warranty@foundryfieldequipment.com with your order number, the model and serial number, a description of the fault and photos or a short video. You get a response within 1 to 2 business days with the next step, which is usually shipping a replacement part or authorizing a local repair.

What does the warranty not cover?

Normal wear items (tracks, tires, blades, teeth, filters, belts, batteries, fluids), damage from misuse, overloading or accidents, lack of maintenance, unauthorized modifications, cosmetic wear and any unit with an altered or missing serial number. Engines are additionally covered by the engine manufacturer where applicable.

Is the warranty transferable if I sell the machine?

The standard 1-year warranty stays with the machine and transfers to a new owner within the original term. Email warranty@foundryfieldequipment.com with the serial number and the new owner's contact details so we can update the record.

Who does warranty repairs?

For most claims we ship replacement parts direct to you. Where labor is required we authorize a local mechanic or equipment shop and cover the approved labor cost. Kubota engine issues can be handled at any authorized Kubota dealer under the engine warranty.

Returns

What is your return policy?

You have 15 days from delivery to request a return. The equipment must be unused, unfilled with fuel and in its original packaging, and you need a Return Authorization (RA) number from us before shipping anything back. Full details are on the returns page.

Who pays return shipping?

For a change of mind or wrong-size return, the customer pays the return freight. If the item arrived damaged or is defective, we arrange and pay for the return and the replacement. Return freight on heavy equipment typically runs several hundred dollars, so call us first if you are unsure about a model.

How long does a refund take?

Once the returned item is received and inspected at the warehouse, refunds are issued within 5 to 7 business days to the original payment method. Your bank may take a further 2 to 5 days to post it.

Can I return a machine I have already used?

No. Returns are accepted on unused equipment only. Once a machine has been fueled, run or put to work it is no longer eligible for return, though it remains fully covered by the 1-year warranty for any defect.

Is there a restocking fee?

Not if the item comes back complete, unused and in its original packaging. If packaging, manuals, hardware or accessories are missing, a restocking fee of up to 20% may be deducted to cover repackaging and replacement parts.

Ordering

What payment methods do you accept?

Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, PayPal and bank wire transfer. Wire is recommended for orders over $10,000 and for business purchases; email us for wire instructions. Financed orders are paid by the lender directly.

Do you charge sales tax?

Sales tax is collected where required by law based on the delivery address, and is shown before you confirm the order. Tax-exempt businesses, farms and resellers can email a valid exemption certificate to info@foundryfieldequipment.com before ordering and we will remove the tax.

Can I change or cancel my order?

Yes, within 24 hours of placing it, at no charge. Call (830) 201-0088 or email with your order number and the change. After 24 hours the order may already be palletized or on a truck; changes are then subject to the return policy and any freight already incurred.

Do you accept business orders and purchase orders?

Yes. Businesses, municipalities, schools and government agencies can order by purchase order on approved credit, and we provide W-9s, formal quotes and invoices on request. Volume pricing is available on 2 or more units. Email info@foundryfieldequipment.com with your requirements to get started.

How do I get a written quote?

Email the model(s), quantity and delivery ZIP code to info@foundryfieldequipment.com, or call (830) 201-0088. You get a formal quote with pricing, freight (free) and estimated delivery window within one business day, valid for 14 days.

Is the coupon code FIELD5 stackable?

FIELD5 applies to eligible full-price items and cannot be combined with combo pricing, sale prices or financed orders. One code per order. Enter it at checkout and the discount shows before payment.
