Shipping & delivery.
How engines and gearboxes are packed, quoted and shipped by freight.
Key policy details.
Freight quotes
Engines and gearboxes are heavy and ship on a pallet by freight carrier. The cost depends on the unit, your address and whether delivery is to a business with a forklift or a residential address. We quote freight after you submit your order, and nothing ships until you have agreed the total.
Handling and transit times
Orders are usually packed and handed to the carrier within 1–3 business days after payment clears. Transit typically takes 3–7 business days. These are estimates, not guaranteed delivery dates.
Packing
Units are drained where appropriate, strapped to a pallet and wrapped. Open ports are covered to keep dirt out.
Receiving your delivery
Inspect the pallet before signing for it. Note any visible damage on the carrier's delivery receipt, take photos and contact us within 24 hours of delivery with your order reference at info@rtautoparts.com or (207) 599-8242.
