Shipping Policy
Overview
Kübox and TrunkMoves provide a packaging and shipping enablement platform that allows customers to move goods through established parcel carrier networks.
We are not a transportation carrier.
All shipments are transported by third-party carriers and are subject to their operational processes, service levels and terms.
Purchasing a Kübox container alone does not include transportation of your packed contents unless that shipping service is expressly included in your order.
Using Your Own Shipping Account
Customers may use their own carrier or freight account to ship their Kübox orders to them.
Contact us before checkout, or mention this when submitting a custom quote request, so we can arrange shipping on your account.
This option concerns delivery of the Kübox containers you purchase. Shipping your packed contents is a separate shipment unless expressly included in your order.
How Shipping Works
For orders that include shipping services for your packed contents:
-
Purchase a Kübox container and shipping service
Each container represents a flat-rated shipping unit based on size and service lane, domestic or international. -
Pack your items
Customers are responsible for packing, following Kübox guidance or using professional assistance if needed. -
Book your shipment
Booking includes label creation and reservation of carrier capacity. -
Carrier pickup and transit
Shipments booked through our parcel shipping services move through parcel carrier networks rather than traditional freight systems.
Shipping Capacity & Booking
Purchases that include shipping services through Kübox or TrunkMoves include the reservation of space within carrier networks. This provision does not apply to container-only purchases.
Once:
- Labels are created
- Pickup is scheduled
- Or a shipment is booked
Shipping capacity is considered reserved and allocated.
As a result:
- Shipments are not cancellable
- Shipping charges are non-refundable
Transit Times
Transit times are:
