Shipping Information

Local Delivery

Second Use is pleased to offer delivery of most Second Use items to Seattle and surrounding areas. Flat drop deliveries (we set the item off the truck and do not carry it more than 25 feet) are generally priced according to the information below. The prices start at the rate listed but may increase, based on a number of factors.

Factors which may increase the delivery price include

  • additional people required to handle the materials
  • additional time required for large loads or awkward items
  • prep work required before loading (packing, disassembly, etc.)
  • travel during rush hour, if it cannot be avoided
  • travel routes that require toll fares or ferry rides
  • additional conditions at the site of the drop-off (being asked to move the materials more than 25 feet from the truck, up stairs, etc.)

Second Use reserves the right to cancel a delivery or increase the delivery fee, if there are any changes to the agreed-upon details.

The base prices for flat drop delivery (for one person/two people) are as follows:

$75/$120 – Georgetown, South Park, White Center
$85/$135 – Beacon Hill, Burien, Columbia City, SeaTac, Tukwila, West Seattle

Nationwide Shipping - $17 or Less on Small Items

We offer USPS priority-mail-insured shipping for $17 for items that fit in the 11 x 11 x 5" box and $7 for the 8 x 5 x 1", with appropriate packing. We can combine most small hardware. For example, two pairs of doorknobs or several cabinet pulls are easy to combine into one shipment. We will figure out what is the safest and cheapest option. Write down the item numbers you are interested in having shipped, and call our cashier at 206-763-6929 with your address and a credit card handy. Shipments are usually picked up every Monday, and priority mail usually takes three or four days.


Domestic Ground


For items less than 70 pounds, we ship via UPS, FedEx and USPS. Our handling fee is $25 an hour, plus the cost of packing materials. Packing materials can cost as little as a few dollars for small items but may cost more for larger items. We can also bill shipping directly to your UPS or FedEx account. Please call us for a quote.


Trucking Company


Many of the materials we sell are too heavy and bulky for package services. For these items, shipment via a trucking company is often an option. Our handling fee is $25 an hour, plus the cost of packing or palletizing materials. This is typically $200 - $400, depending on location, weight and size. Shipment to a business with a loading dock or forklift is usually about $80 less than home delivery. Please call us for a quote.




Alaska


Typically, our Alaskan customers make their own shipping arrangements directly with one of the barge companies. Our handling fee is $25 an hour plus the cost of packing or palletizing materials. We can deliver palletized cargo to Alaska Marine Lines for $50 and other Seattle barge terminals for $75.


Professional Crating


Our handling fee is $25 an hour, plus the cost of packing or palletizing materials, when it’s done at Second Use. For fragile materials (stone or glass), we can outsource crating to Box Brothers or Custom Crating. They can pick up your materials at Second Use. Or, if you prefer, we can handle all logistics.




International


Sorry, we do not currently offer shipping outside of the United States.
