Delivery of Product and Manufacturing Lead Times

Timing for the delivery of products, including but not limited to surfboard orders, varies depending upon the surfboard ordered. Factors including but not limited to artwork, glassing, materials, construction (i.e. PU foam, epoxy, etc.) and holiday periods can affect the time of completion and delivery of a surfboard.

The delivery times provided by Boardcave.com are estimates only. Boardcave.com will not be held accountable for late deliveries but we will do our best to ensure the surfboard gets to you as quick and safely as possible. In the event that multiple items are ordered, part of your order may be delivered at different times. For example, your fins might arrive prior to your surfboard, in different packaging. All reasonable attempts to notify you will be made using the details you provided. Please ensure you enter the correct delivery address. Boardcave.com cannot be held responsible for incorrectly entered delivery addresses.

Product Delivery and Acceptance Requirements

You or someone at your specified delivery address will be required to sign upon delivery of all products.

If the customer is not at the specified location to sign for the product there will be fees in place for a redelivery at a later date. If the nominated place of delivery should be unattended, the Shipping Company may store the goods and if the Goods are stored there will be costs involved ($40) for the storage and redelivery of the products(s).

Changes to Orders and Cancellations for Custom Surfboards

Please contact us by LIVE CHAT or email immediately with the order modifications you would like. Please note that not all changes cannot be guaranteed as surfboard orders may be too far into the manufacturing process. Ensuring that your order is correct on the checkout page and in your confirmation email, is the best way to save any disappointment at a later date. We advise you carefully read through everything you have selected on our checkout page to ensure you are happy with your order prior to clicking the “Place Order” button.

For custom surfboard orders, we do not offer Cancellations. These orders are one of a kind and handmade to what you selected at the time of placing your order. As these are not a stock product, we are not in a position to cancel this order. Please note, custom boards are shaped and finished by hand and estimating the lead time is not as accurate as ordering a stock surfboard. As cancellations are not allowed with these orders, we recommend you order well in advance if you need the board for a specific date. You can always speak with our team on LIVE CHAT to help you decide if a custom handmade surfboard is best for you, to meet any deadlines and requirements you have. Custom surfboard order lead times during holiday periods, online shopping days and pandemics can blow out due to factors outside of our control. If you have concerns with this, please don't hesitate to contact our team to get better visibility, prior to placing your order.
