Alabama Essential Oils Shipping Rates and Policies FAQ.

Alabama Essential Oils FAQ.

Does AEO have a minimum order requirement?
NO! Your company or business size does not matter.  We are happy to serve any customer who are involved with resale of essential oils or the use of essential oils in your manufactured products or services and individuals.

What is the typical turnaround time after placing our orders?
We have been committed over the last 9 years to be THE FASTEST SHIPPING ESSENTIAL OIL COMPANY IN THE WORLD.  99% of orders placed on our website by 10 A.M., Central Standard Time, Monday-Friday, are shipped out the same day!  If you have had any experience at all with other vendors, you know that same day shipping in this industry borders on the ridiculous.  AEO is able to achieve its quick turnaround because they maintain a huge inventory at all times and don't wait until they receive orders to our growers and distillers.  
Our fast shipping times allow us to be very convenient for many small companies who can't afford or don't want to tie up precious capital in purchasing larger quantities that will take them many months to sell.  We have many clients who never stock any oils at all that simply place orders with us as their orders come in because they know they can depend on us to get their orders shipped quickly and without mistakes.

What is the conversion from pounds to kilograms?
Most of our essential oils have been converted from kilograms to pound sizes for easy understanding by our customers request.  We highly recommend that you commit the conversion factor to memory because you get better deals when buying in the kilogram sizes and it will be useful for you to know the conversion when comparing our prices to other US competitors who only sell in various pound sizes.  NOTE: When you view our product prices when ordering most of the conversion is already done for you.

What shipping methods do you use?
Currently in most orders we ship UPS.  Very rarely we use USPS on essential oil orders.

Returns?
We cannot accept returns or give credit on orders after 10 days from date of receipt of your order.  Returns must be in usable condition.  Goods returned not due to our error will be subject to a 35% restocking fee.  Please email us request for RMA number and you will get a reply stating the credit amount that you have minus the 35% restocking fee.  All returns must have an RMA number supplied by our staff.  Once your return request is approved you will be notified of the amount of the IN STORE credit that you will receive.  All credits must be within 1 year of the issue date.

Claims?
Any claims concerning lost or damaged shipments must be submitted to us by fax or email within 30 days of ship date in order for us to consider your claim.  All packages are insured for the full value, so if it is lost or damaged by UPS then it will be covered, but in some cases we may have to wait until UPS reimburses us before we resend your order.  It could take up to a week for UPS to honor a claim.  Fortunately there has been a very small damaged package rate because the use of the most durable containers in the industry and everything is packed and shipped with extraordinary care and diligence.  We pride ourselves on the lowest damage and shipping mistake rates of any e-commerce business on the internet.

Order Status?
Customers will receive an e-mail directly from UPS with your tracking number when your order ships.  You can use this tracking number at www.ups.com  to see the exact location of your package at any time.  If you placed your order before 10 A.M. CST Mon-Fri, then your order should have shipped out the same day in most cases.  Many times the tracking e-mails from UPS get mistaken for spam by many of the various e-mail spam filters out there so make sure that if you use such a program that you create a rule to accept all e-mails from ups.com or you may never see your tracking notification.

Did my order go through?  I never got an email confirmation!
Sometime spam filters catch our order e-mails.  Please update your spam filters to accept any e-mails coming from alabamaessentialoils@gmail.com in order to avoid such problems.  We can send a confirmation again from the Order History/Status page.  Your order can always be verified by checking your order history from your account details by clicking on your login name in the upper right hand corner of the screen.
