Shipping and Delivery Policy for E-Bikes and Scooters
Shipping & Delivery Policy
Thank you for choosing Axis-Dynamics. We are committed to delivering your electric bikes, electric scooters, and premium tech accessories safely and efficiently. Because our micro-mobility products contain high-capacity lithium-ion batteries, they require specialized handling, transit routing, and delivery protocols.
Please review our comprehensive shipping policy below to understand transit times, delivery expectations, and your responsibilities as a buyer.
1. Processing Times & Order Verification
- Standard Processing: All orders are processed within 2–4 business days (excluding weekends and major holidays) after receiving your order confirmation email.
- Fraud & Security Verification: Because our electric bikes and scooters are high-value items, our billing department may contact you via phone or email to verify your identity and shipping address before dispatch. Your processing window may be delayed if a prompt response is not provided.
- Order Tracking: You will receive a notification with a tracking number as soon as your order ships from our fulfillment center. Please allow 24–48 hours for the carrier to update the tracking link.
Geographic Restrictions
- Continental US Only: We currently only ship electric bikes and electric scooters to the 48 contiguous United States.
- No P.O. Boxes or APO/FPO: We cannot deliver e-bikes, e-scooters, or charging stations to P.O. Boxes, military bases, or international addresses due to carrier restrictions on oversized battery cargo.
3. Large Freight & E-Bike Delivery Requirements
Because electric bikes are shipped in large, heavy boxes, they are typically delivered via an LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) Freight Carrier (e.g., FedEx Freight, Estes, or R&L Carriers).
The Delivery Appointment Process
- Carrier Contact: Once the shipment arrives at your local regional hub, the freight carrier will call you directly using the phone number provided at checkout to schedule a delivery appointment window (usually a 4-hour block on a weekday).
- Adult Signature Required: An adult (18+) MUST be present at the delivery address during this scheduled window to inspect the package and sign for the delivery. The carrier will not drop off a freight shipment unattended.
- Curbside Delivery: Please note that freight shipping is strictly curbside delivery. The driver is only responsible for lowering the palletized box to the curb or driveway using a liftgate. They are not permitted to bring the box inside your home, garage, or up apartment stairwells.
-
⚠️ Missed Appointments & Storage Fees: If you miss your scheduled delivery window, or if the carrier cannot reach you after multiple attempts, you may be held liable for storage fees (typically $25–$50 per day) or return-to-sender freight charges.
4. Shipping Damage & Immediate Inspection Protocol
Your product leaves our facility in perfect, factory-sealed condition. However, because micro-mobility items are heavy, transit wear can occur. You must inspect the box carefully before signing the delivery receipt.
If the Box Shows Minor Scuffs or Tears:
Sign for the delivery, but explicitly write "Damaged Box" or "Subject to Inspection"next to your signature on the driver’s paperwork. This protects your right to file a claim if the product inside is dinged.
If the Box is Severely Smashed, Open, or Crushed:
- Refuse the shipment entirely. Tell the driver you are refusing delivery due to severe transit damage.
- Take photos of the damaged box before the truck leaves.
- Contact us immediately at support@axis-dynamics.net with your order number and photos so we can dispatch a replacement or initiate an investigation.
Hidden Damage:
If the box looked fine but you open it and discover structural or mechanical damage to your e-bike or scooter, you must report it to Axis-Dynamics within 48 hours of delivery. Please include clear photos and videos of the damage.
5. Address Changes, Cancellations, and Redirection
- Before Shipment: If you need to change your shipping address or cancel your order, you must notify us within 12 hoursof placing the order.
- In-Transit Adjustments: Once an e-bike or e-scooter has left our warehouse and is in transit, we cannot change the delivery address or cancel the shipment. If a shipment must be rerouted or recalled mid-transit due to a customer error, a rerouting fee (charged by the carrier, often exceeding $150) will be billed to the customer.
