Sales Tax Policy for CFW Shipping Containers LLC

1. Introduction

This Sales Tax Policy applies to purchases, quotes, invoices, delivery charges, container modifications, refrigerated containers, container cabins, container pools, site offices, welfare units, and any other container-related products or services supplied by CFW Shipping Containers LLC.

The purpose of this Policy is to give customers clear information about how sales tax may be treated when they purchase from us. All tax treatment is handled in accordance with applicable United States federal, state, and local tax rules where relevant.

This Policy should be read together with our Terms and Conditions, Shipping Policy, Payment Policy, Refund Policy, Privacy Policy, and any quote, invoice, or written order confirmation issued by CFW Shipping Containers LLC.

2. Sales Tax in the United States

In the United States, sales tax is generally controlled at the state and local level. This means the applicable rate and tax treatment can vary depending on where the container is delivered, where the sale is processed, and whether any exemption or special rule applies.

3. Sales Tax Collection

CFW Shipping Containers LLC will only collect sales tax where it is legally required or where sales tax is applicable to the transaction. If sales tax applies to your order, the invoice or order confirmation may show the tax amount, tax rate, taxable items, and total amount payable.

If sales tax is not charged at the time of purchase, the customer may still have separate use tax, reporting, or accounting obligations depending on their state, business status, and applicable law.

4. Prices Displayed on Our Website

Prices displayed on our website, product pages, advertisements, quotes, or marketing materials may be shown as tax-inclusive, tax-exclusive, or subject to applicable sales tax depending on the product, service, customer type, delivery location, and applicable tax status at the time of purchase.

Where sales tax is applicable, the final quote, checkout summary, invoice, or written order confirmation will provide the most accurate breakdown of the amount payable.

• Product prices may include or exclude sales tax depending on the listing or quote format.
• Delivery charges may be subject to sales tax where applicable.
• Modification charges may be subject to sales tax where applicable.
• Container accessories, add-ons, and specialist services may be subject to sales tax where applicable.
• The final amount payable will be confirmed before the order is completed.

5. Products and Services Covered by This Policy

This Sales Tax Policy applies to all container products and related services supplied by CFW Shipping Containers LLC, including but not limited to:

6. Sales Tax on Delivery and Shipping Charges

Delivery, transport, positioning, and shipping charges may be treated as taxable where applicable state or local law requires it. If sales tax is chargeable on your order, tax may also apply to delivery-related charges unless the law requires a different treatment.

Any sales tax applied to delivery or shipping charges will be shown on the invoice, quote, checkout summary, or written order confirmation where applicable.

7. Sales Tax Invoices and Order Documents

Where sales tax applies to your transaction, we may issue an invoice or order confirmation containing relevant tax details. These documents may include the company name, address, company registration number, invoice number, invoice date, customer details, product description, tax rate, tax amount, delivery charges, and total amount payable.

Business customers who require specific tax information on an invoice should notify us before or at the time of placing an order so the invoice can be prepared correctly.

8. Business Customers and Tax Exemptions

Some business, resale, nonprofit, government, agricultural, or other customers may qualify for sales tax exemption depending on their location and applicable law. CFW Shipping Containers LLC does not automatically apply tax exemptions unless valid documentation is provided and accepted before the order is completed.

Customers requesting exemption may be asked to provide a valid resale certificate, exemption certificate, or other required documentation. Customers should speak with their accountant, tax adviser, or relevant state tax authority if they are unsure whether an exemption applies.

9. Consumers and Final Pricing

For consumer purchases, CFW Shipping Containers LLC aims to make pricing clear before an order is finalised. The price payable by the customer will be the amount shown on the final quote, checkout summary, invoice, or written order confirmation.

If sales tax applies, the customer will be informed through the relevant sales document or checkout process. Customers should not assume that sales tax is included unless the price clearly states that it is tax inclusive.

10. Changes in Tax Rates or Tax Law

Sales tax rates, thresholds, sourcing rules, nexus requirements, and tax rules may change from time to time. If a change in applicable tax law or tax rate affects an order before it is completed, CFW Shipping Containers LLC may update the applicable tax treatment, invoice, or total amount payable where legally required.

Any tax-related adjustment will be communicated to the customer where it affects the final amount payable.

11. Refunds, Returns and Sales Tax Adjustments

Where a refund, return, cancellation, price adjustment, or partial refund is approved, any sales tax adjustment will be handled in accordance with applicable state and local tax rules and the original tax treatment of the transaction.

If sales tax was charged on the original invoice and a refund is approved, the sales tax portion may be adjusted in line with the refund amount and any relevant credit note, revised invoice, or refund record.

12. Interstate and Special Delivery Transactions

Orders involving interstate delivery, freight forwarding, third-party transport, remote delivery locations, commercial buyers, resale customers, or special delivery arrangements may have different sales tax, use tax, exemption, or reporting considerations.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate destination, business, billing, delivery, resale, exemption, and tax information where relevant. CFW Shipping Containers LLC may request additional information before confirming tax treatment for specialist orders.

13. Customer Responsibility

Customers are responsible for reviewing all quotes, invoices, tax details, sales tax treatment, delivery charges, and order confirmations before making payment. Customers should contact us immediately if they believe tax has been calculated incorrectly or if they require a specific invoice format for business records.

• Check whether the quoted price is tax inclusive or tax exclusive.
• Confirm whether sales tax applies before completing payment.
• Request any required tax invoice or exemption handling before placing an order.
• Provide accurate business, billing, and delivery details.
• Keep invoices and payment records for your own accounting purposes.

14. No Tax or Accounting Advice

Information in this Sales Tax Policy is provided for general customer guidance only. It should not be treated as legal, accounting, sales tax, use tax, or tax advice. Customers should seek professional advice from an accountant, tax adviser, attorney, or relevant state tax authority where they require guidance on their own tax obligations, exemption eligibility, tax recovery, tax reporting, or business accounting.
