Understanding shipping policies and tax implications is crucial when ordering parts for your Peterbilt, especially a pyrometer gauge. This article clarifies Pittsburgh Power’s shipping procedures, international fees, and tax regulations for purchasing a pyrometer gauge or other parts.
Shipping Policies
Pittsburgh Power utilizes UPS and FedEx for shipping pyrometer gauges and other products that are not considered truck freight. Orders typically ship within 1-2 business days from their Saxonburg, Pennsylvania location, with same-day shipping possible for orders placed before 2 PM EST. However, backordered or direct-ship items may experience longer lead times. Delivery generally takes 3-6 business days for in-stock items, depending on the destination. Non-stock or special order components may require a 1-2 week waiting period. For accurate inventory information or estimated delivery dates, contacting Pittsburgh Power directly is recommended. Please note that a physical shipping address is required; P.O. boxes, APO, and FPO addresses are not accepted. International shipping is available.
International Shipping: Customs and Fees
International orders for pyrometer gauges or other Peterbilt parts may incur import taxes, customs duties, and fees upon arrival in the destination country. These charges are the recipient’s responsibility and Pittsburgh Power cannot control or predict them. Contacting your local customs office for fee information is advised. While Pittsburgh Power strives to provide timely delivery, customs clearance procedures can cause unforeseen delays. FedEx international shipping often includes import taxes and duties in the shipping cost, making it a preferable option for international customers.
Tax Information for Pyrometer Gauge Purchases
Purchases from Pittsburgh Power shipped within Pennsylvania are subject to Pennsylvania sales tax. Orders shipped outside of Pennsylvania are subject to the local taxes of the receiving address. Interstate User Certificates (IUC) and Public Utility Commission (PUC) numbers are not accepted for online orders.
