International Orders

Hardware Nation ships around the globe. Fedex, DHL, and UPS are our preferred carriers for small package shipments internationally. You may also elect to ship via USPS. Over sized shipments will be shipped by an International freight forwarder via Door-to-Door or Door-to-Airport service, depending on your country and/or preference. Shipping fees are calculated on a combined basis of weight, shipment value (for insurance purposes) and destination.

Many of our items are sourced from various distribution points across the country. For this reason, most international orders will be consolidated at our main Buford, GA warehouse prior to shipment. Please allow the possibility of a few extra days for transit. Please note that some items cannot be exported due to manufacturer or government restrictions. All import customs, duties and taxes are the responsibility of the customer. Please provide your sales representative with any special shipping instructions as soon as possible after the order is placed. Please review our policies on international payment and international returns.

Packaging

Hardware Nation’s Packaging methods are among the safest in the industry. Below are the steps we take to ensure your equipment arrives without damage.

For servers, storage, and other heavy systems:

The system is placed into a double-walled durable box.

We then use Sealed Air foam to form a perfect mold around the system, creating a cushion on all sides.

Depending on the total size of the shipment, we may ship the order as loose boxes or strap the box (or boxes) to a pallet. We use only brand new pallets (heat treated for international shipments) and the highest quality packaging materials.

For hard drives, memory, CPUs, and components:

Items are first placed into anti-static bags or other anti-static packaging.

We then bubble wrap each item and place them in a double walled box. We then use additional bubble wrap, Sealed Air foam, or packaging paper in order to secure the items for shipping.

For new in box systems and components:

We double box all new in box items to ensure the original manufacturer box is not damaged.
