AK, HI, Canada, Mexico
Ships via standard ground or international carriers. Rates calculated at checkout based on destination and the size of the filter boxes.
Eight production plants. One plant ships your order.
Rather than shipping every order from a central warehouse, we route your filters through the production plant closest to your delivery address. That means shorter transit times, fewer hands on the box, and less damage risk — especially for larger or custom filters that don't love long trips.
For residential deliveries in our network footprint, we include weekend delivery at no extra cost when it gets your filters to you faster.
How soon will my filters arrive?
Current lead times are listed on each product page and again in the shipping section of the cart before you place your order — so you know what to expect for the specific filters you're buying. Standard pleated filters in common sizes ship within a few business days. Custom-cut filters, specialty media, and large-format sizes typically run longer. Transit time depends on distance from the production plant to your address.
Expedited shipping is often available.
Contact customer service before or right after placing your order and we'll check with the closest plant to see if they can accelerate production and ship via an expedited carrier service. Expedited options and costs vary by size, MERV, and destination — we'll confirm both before processing the upgrade.
Where do you need your filters?
Continental US (Lower 48)
Free shipping on orders $50+. Orders under $50 ship flat rate between $9.99 and $14.99. Weekend delivery included for residential addresses when it speeds delivery.
Filters are lightweight but the boxes are oversized — we pay real shipping rates on every free-shipping order. Free shipping means we absorb that cost, not that the cost isn't there.
Carriers: UPS and FedEx
Alaska & Hawaii
We ship to Alaska and Hawaii, but free shipping doesn't extend to these states. Filter boxes are oversized — lightweight, but physically large — which makes carrier rates to remote states significantly higher than to the lower 48. Contact customer service before ordering for the most accurate quote for your specific size and ZIP code.
Carriers: Varies by destination — contact us for the best option.
Canada
We ship all of our filter products to Canada. Expect slightly longer lead times due to customs clearance. Shipping charges and any applicable duties are calculated at checkout — no surprises on delivery.
Transit: Standard + customs (2–5 business days typical)
Mexico
We ship many filter products to Mexico, though not every SKU is eligible due to carrier and import restrictions. If you order a filter we can't ship to Mexico, we'll notify you and issue an immediate full refund — no waiting. Shipping charges calculated at checkout; expect customs delays.
Note: Contact us first if ordering specialty or oversized filters
Business & Commercial
We ship to commercial addresses, loading docks, and multi-site portfolios. Bulk orders typically ship LTL freight. Scheduled auto-ship is available for commercial accounts — quarterly changeouts, multi-site rotations, facility compliance programs.
Apartments & Residential
We ship to apartment and residential street addresses nationwide via UPS and FedEx. Include your apartment, suite, or unit number to avoid delivery delays.
Note: We cannot ship to PO boxes — filter boxes exceed carrier size limits for PO delivery. A physical street address is required.
HEPA, PureFlo, AstroCel & pallet orders.
Large filter orders, specialty HEPA units, and pallet quantities ship via LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) freight. Because freight shipments involve additional handling, delivery appointments, and higher risk of in-transit damage, there are specific requirements every freight customer should know before placing an order.
Required information
When extra fees apply
Additional freight charges billed to the customer include, but aren't limited to:
Obvious freight damage
If visible damage is present on arrival: REFUSE the shipment. If you accept it anyway, require the driver to mark it "Received as Damaged" on the delivery receipt and contact us immediately.
⏱ 2 days from receipt to notify us of obvious damage.
Concealed freight damage
Damage discovered after the shipment is unpacked but not visible at delivery. Contact us as soon as you discover it. Take photos of the damage and the packaging.
⏱ 5 days from receipt to notify us of concealed damage.
RTF reserves the right to request photos of damage for claims processing. Missing these inspection windows will greatly hamper the claims process with the carrier.
Double-check your shipping address.
Orders returned to us because of an incorrect address provided at checkout are charged a reship fee equal to the true shipping cost we paid on the original shipment — we don't mark up reships, but we do have to recover the original carrier cost. This is especially important for larger filter sizes and freight orders where shipping costs can be significant.
Most common issues: missing apartment or suite numbers, typos in street numbers, wrong ZIP code, and shipping to a seasonal address. If you catch a mistake before the order ships, contact us immediately and we'll update it at no charge.
