Taxes
Sales Tax applies to your order in accordance with state regulations based on the shipping destination. Factors determining the amount of tax charged on your order may include freight charges, handling charges, the type of item purchased and certain discounts. Gift cards are not subject to sales tax. Some states require you to independently pay tax on items purchased online when tax is not collected by the retailer. Please check your state regulations for details.
Individuals, businesses, and entities exempt from paying state sales tax based on your state’s sales tax requirements (such as governments Native Americans living on a reservation, or for agricultural purposes) can apply to use their tax exempt status here. Once a certificate is registered, qualifying tax exempt purchases can be made in-store or by contacting our Call Center at 1-800-423-2567, available Monday thru Sunday, 6am to 6pm (PT). For orders placed online by an entity or individual exempt from paying sales tax, after tax exempt status has been registered at this link, please contact our Call Center at 1-800-423-2567 for reimbursem*nt of sales tax paid in the online transaction.
We do not offer tax exemption on phone and online sales for resellers. Any orders placed online by resellers will be charged the applicable sales tax.
Shipping Costs

Harbor Freight stores and the Harbor Freight website accept our Harbor Freight credit card, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover and Harbor Freight gift cards. Our stores also accept ApplePay.
While we do our best to prevent backorders, they do occasionally happen. The item will be sent as soon as our warehouse receives a new shipment.
If an order has an item on backorder, Harbor Freight will charge shipping on the entire merchandise total including the shipping cost for the item on backorder.
If you paid with a debit card, we recommend you deduct the full amount of your order from your records to ensure funds are available when your item becomes available.
If the backordered item is discontinued or unavailable, the item will be cancelled from your order and you will not be charged. There may be a comparable item or upgraded version available. Please search our website or contact Customer Service for assistance at 1-800-444-3353, Monday thru Sunday, 6am to 6pm (PT).
You may be able to order an item in advance of its release. Pre-order items are clearly marked, and include an estimated shipping date.
When you order a pre-order item, you will only be charged when the item ships. If an order has a pre-order item and regular items, Harbor Freight will charge shipping on the entire merchandise total including the shipping cost for the item on pre-order. When the pre-order item ships, you will only be charged for the item (plus tax if applicable).
If you paid with a debit card, we recommend you deduct the full amount of your order from your records to ensure funds are available when your item becomes available.
