General Shipping Information
We inspect every item before it ships to ensure it meets our quality standards. Deliveries generally occur Monday–Friday during standard business hours.
- ■Small Parcels: Shipped via courier (UPS/FedEx/USPS). A signature may not be required.
- ■Freight (LTL): Large or heavy items ship via freight truck. These deliveries require a signature, and someone must be present to receive the shipment.
Title and Risk of Loss (FOB Shipping Point)
- ■FOB Shipping Point: All shipments are sent Free on Board (FOB) Shipping Point.
- ■Transfer of Responsibility: Title and risk of loss transfer to the buyer the moment Legacy Lab Supplies delivers items to the carrier.
- ■Carrier Issues: We are not liable for delays, loss, or damage caused by the carrier once the shipment has left our facility, though we will assist you in filing a claim if necessary.

Warehouse Services — Storage & Off-Site White-Glove
Equipment arriving before your space is ready? Need it uncrated, staged or inspected somewhere other than your lab? We can receive and hold it at our Orange County warehouse, and arrange white-glove handling off-site before final delivery.
- ■Short-term storage: We receive the shipment, confirm it against the packing list, and hold it until your site is ready.
- ■Off-site white-glove: Uncrating, staging and inspection performed at our warehouse rather than in your lab — useful when the delivery site has no dock, limited access, or restricted hours.
- ■Where: 16511 Burke Lane, Huntington Beach, CA 92647 — freight and LTL capable.
These are arranged case by case — tell us what you need when you request your quote, or contact us and we will scope it with you.
