Shipping, Delivery, Order Processing & Product Availability
Fondriest uses the best carriers to make sure orders gets to you on time. Learn more about shipping times, methods, costs, and carriers.
Delivery Time
We keep you informed. Shortly after you place your order, you will receive an Order Acknowledgement email to confirm your order details, including shipping and a delivery estimate. Once your order has been prepared for shipment and ships, you will receive a Shipment Notification email with carrier and tracking information.
Shipping and Delivery Estimates
The 'Ships' timeframe is an estimate of when the item will ship from our warehouse. All items will ship at one time unless you specifically request partial shipment. In which case, the items on your order will ship as they become available. The 'Delivers' timeframe is an estimate of when the item will be delivered to your shipping address after it ships. The estimated delivery time depends on the shipping method you choose during checkout. All estimates are based on business days.
Shipping Options
Fondriest offers several convenient shipping options via UPS.
| Ground Shipping: | Products shipped via ground service are normally delivered within five business days after shipment. |
| 2-Day Shipping: | For an additional charge, Fondriest offers 2-day shipping for most products. Products shipped via two-day service prior to 4:00 p.m. EST are normally delivered by 7:00 p.m. local time two business days after shipment. |
| Overnight Delivery: | For an additional charge, Fondriest offers overnight shipping for most products. Products shipped via overnight service prior to 4:00 p.m. EST are normally delivered by 7:00 p.m. local time one business day after shipment. Earlier overnight delivery options may also be available depending on the destination. |
| Your Account: | For no additional charge, Fondriest can ship on third-party customer accounts via UPS and FedEx. Note that FedEx Ground shipments are picked up the following business day and Express shipments must be made before 1:00 p.m. EST to ensure same-day pick-up. |
Remember that these estimates are for time in transit only, and that they do not apply until the product leaves the Fondriest warehouse. As the delivery of your order is beyond Fondriest's control once your order leaves the Fondriest warehouse, we cannot assume liability for late deliveries, regardless of the delivery method you specify.
Signature Required on Most Deliveries
Most of Fondriest's shipments contain valuable equipment. If you will not be at the shipping address to accept delivery of your product, consider shipping the item to an address where someone you trust will be available to sign for your package, or accept your package if a signature is not required for the delivery. Once your order has prepared for shipment or has shipped, we are unable to change the shipping address. Title and risk of loss to all products will pass to you on delivery. If you are willing to assume the risks of delivering your order without a signature, you may authorize Fondriest to arrange for a delivery that does not require anyone to be at the delivery address.
Undeliverable Packages
Occasionally packages are returned to Fondriest as undeliverable. When the carrier returns an undeliverable package to Fondriest, please contact us to make arrangements for reshipment.
Failed Delivery Attempts
Most of Fondriest carriers make three attempts to deliver a package. After three delivery attempts, the carrier will return the package to Fondriest.
Order Processing
The estimated shipment date on your order is based on product availability, payment processing time, and warehouse processing time and does not include transit time. We do not begin payment processing until Fondriest receives all of the information that is needed and full payment or a full authorization, in the case of credit card or rental orders.
Fondriest will begin payment processing for orders placed on weekends or holidays on the next business day. Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays.
Your order for in-stock items that are eligible for same-day shipping must be received before your local time of 2:00 p.m., pending payment processing, for there to be adequate remaining time in the day for your order to be dispatched.
Product Availability
Fondriest makes every effort to ship your product according to the estimated lead times. The estimated lead times are in business days (Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays).
Although Fondriest makes every effort to ship your order according to the lead time provided, shipping dates may change due to changes in supply. If the lead time changes, Fondriest will contact you via email and provide a revised shipping estimate.
Fondriest makes every effort to supply the products you order, but there may be occasions when Fondriest confirms orders and later learns that it cannot supply the products, either at all or in the quantities ordered. Although rare, these occasions can include when Fondriest learns that the products no longer are being manufactured or they otherwise become unavailable, when Fondriest cannot source components for the configuration you ordered, or when there was a pricing error at the Fondriest Online Store.
In those circumstances, Fondriest will inform you and, if you are interested, Fondriest may suggest alternative products that may meet your needs. If you do not wish to order alternative products, Fondriest will cancel your order for products that cannot be supplied and for any other products that you no longer wish to order as a result, and will refund your purchase price.

Questions & Answers
Will this base fit a Marsh McBirney Rod?
Unfortunately, this base is not designed to fit a Marsh McBirney wading rod.
Part looks like same cast bases that often break. What is material, and do you sell brass bases?
The top setting wading rod base plate is machined from aluminum bar stock as specified by the USGS. The typical complaint is that sometimes the threads get banged up, but that can typically be fixed by running a 7/16-20 tap through them. We do not sell brass bases at the moment.

Riding the Renewable Wave: Testing Wave Energy Converters at Oregon’s PacWave Site
Seven miles off Oregon’s weather-beaten coastline, the world’s biggest wave power testing facility, PacWave, is primed to put the latest renewable energy technology to the test. “There is a huge amount of energy that is not harvested in the ocean,” states the team at Oregon State University involved in the PacWave project. When it comes to harnessing the power of the waves, “It's exciting because it [wave power] is a non-polluting, non-carbon burning technology,” the team says. Wave Power The U.S. Energy Information Administration explains that tidal energy harnesses the flow of seawater in depth under the gravitational forces exerted by the sun and moon–the drivers of tides–while wave energy derives from the kinetic energy of wind-blown surface waves.
Source Water Monitoring: How Fayette County Finds the Highest Drinking Water Quality
Safe drinking water is vital for public health infrastructure, and providing cost-effective water treatment is a top goal of drinking water utilities. To reduce these costs, counties like Fayette, Georgia, rely on source water monitoring to evaluate water quality before it reaches the treatment plant. Fayette County Water System serves about 90,000 residents and pulls water from multiple reservoirs in the area. This variety of sources offers unique benefits for the county. They have built a system that minimizes cost and maximizes choice–two water treatment plants, multiple water pumps, and multiple reservoirs. Two of the reservoirs have intake structures that allow water treatment staff to choose which level of the water column has the best quality, within 2-foot increments.
A Powerful Solution? Buoys Tracking the Potential of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement
The climate is a complex network of interconnected systems. Halting the cascading impacts of climate change is not as straightforward as cutting anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Even if these emissions ceased entirely today, it would take many thousands of years for carbon dioxide (CO2) to return to pre-industrial levels. Removal of CO2 from the atmosphere is also necessary to keep global warming within the 2°C limit stipulated in the 2015 Paris Agreement . The Ocean as a Carbon Sink The ocean is the world’s largest carbon sink–it absorbs 30% of all carbon dioxide emissions and captures 90% of the excess heat generated by these emissions.
