Certain parts such as wings, frames, spars, vee struts, sheet metals and other large items will incur a crating charge to cover our costs (materials and labor) of building a custom crate for shipping.
Our website has been programmed to add the appropriate crate fee to any product that requires a crate. However, Univair reserves the right to adjust your final shipping costs if our material costs have increased or if we overlooked any products requiring a crate.
Crating fees shown below are subject to change at any time without notice.
Please note that crating charges are in addition to shipping charges. Due to their large size, crates can only be shipped via FREIGHT.
