This includes, but is not limited to, items containing glass, moving items up or down narrow, curving or turning stairways, specialty items such as pianos, etc., and extremely large and/or heavy items. Haelo Express does its best to accommodate customers’ requests for specific placement of items at delivery. It is the responsibility of the customer to take measurements prior to delivery to ensure their item will reasonably fit through hallways, doorways, and around existing furniture and fixtures to safely reach their desired location without risk of damage to personal property or employees/contractors. Haelo Express considers delivery to be complete once an item is unloaded from the vehicle and placed on a customer’s property and the full amount of customer APPROVED quote is due and payable even in the instance a delivery item cannot be placed where the customer had intended. CUSTOMER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DISCLOSING WEIGHT OF ANY ITEMS OVER 200LBS AT TIME OF BOOKING OR NO LESS THAN 48 HOURS PRIOR TO PICK UP TO ENSURE HAELO EXPRESS APPROVES THE ITEM FOR TRANSPORT BASED ON INFORMATION PROVIDED BY CUSTOMER.

FAILURE TO ACCURATELY DISCLOSE DETAILS OF ITEMS OVER 200LBS COULD RESULT IN A SERVICE FEE OF UP TO 50% OF TOTAL INVOICE IF HAELO EXPRESS EMPLOYEES/CONTRACTORS DEEM AN ITEM UNSAFE TO MOVE ONCE ON-SITE DUE TO WEIGHT, TYPE OF ITEM, OR ANY OTHER UNDISCLOSED OR UNFORSEEN CIRCUMSTANCE.
 
CANCELATIONS AND ITEMS NOT AVAILABLE FOR PICK-UP: We require a deposit of 25% of the total invoice amount at time of quote approval. This amount is fully refundable if we receive cancelation in writing by text message to (858) 952-1424 or email to info@haeloexpress.com no less than 24 hours prior to dispatch of scheduled delivery window. If cancelation is received with less than 24 hours’ notice, the customer understands the deposit is non-refundable but will be retained as a deposit for 7 calendar days to be applied toward a rescheduled delivery of item/s. In the event no delivery is scheduled and completed within the 7 day grace period, customer will forfeit the deposit amount to the company. If drivers have already been dispatched within a reasonable time prior to estimated pick-up/delivery window to job location and the customer cancels the job, or the items are unavailable for pick up or customer decides not to accept the items for whatever reason, customer understands they will forfeit their deposit in its entirety (without the 7-day reschedule grace period) and they will also be charged an additional 25% of the total quote (for a Grand Total of 50%) to cover labor, fuel and operations expenses for dispatching to a scheduled job.
