FAQ

You can store your packages in the Stackry warehouse for up to 60 days.

Stackry will secure your purchases in your personalized locker free of charge for the first 45 days.

Some customers find this helpful so they can later consolidate their USA purchases and save up to 80% with our consolidation feature. That's right --- up to 80%!

After 60 days Stackry reserves the right to sell, destroy or otherwise dispose of your packages without incurring any liability to you or any other party whatsoever

International carriers take the dimensions of your package to determine its dimensional weight. What exactly is dimensional weight, though?
Dimensional weight determines how large your package is, rather than only taking into account the true weight. Dimensional weight is calculated by multiplying the length by width by height of each package in inches or centimeters and dividing by a dimensional weight factor. The dimensional weight factor varies by service offering and unit of measure (in or cm).

Stackry’s partner carriers DHL, FedEx and DHL Global Mail all use a dimensional weight factor of 166. The United States Postal Service (USPS) does not use dimensional weight to calculate the final price of shipping.

When dimensional weight exceeds actual weight, shipments are charged according to the dimensional weight.

There are increasing rules and regulations around shipping lithium batteries. International carriers limit or prohibit shipping of the following items:

• Lithium batteries contained within the device
• Lithium Batteries packaged with the device
• Lithium batteries sent on their own (loose batteries) 

The different restrictions and limitations are based on the following:

• The type of battery
• How the battery is packaged
• The power of the battery (watt hours ratings)
• The number of batteries shipped together  

Loose batteries are the most restricted type to ship.  A battery is considered loose when it is shipped without the device it is intended to power. Examples include but are not limited to the following:

 

• Spare Laptop batteries
• Spare Phone batteries
• Spare Camera batteries
• Power banks (portable chargers)  

Loose batteries cannot be shipped by air unless they have a proven state of charge less than 30%. Most power banks are received with a charge of 30% or more. Since the state of charge for loose spare batteries cannot be determined, this means Stackry almost never ships a battery without the device it powers. 

The rules regarding lithium batteries also vary by international carrier.

Some carriers refuse to ship any items that contain lithium ion batteries. Others put strict limitations on what types of batteries they ship. Finally, some international carriers ship lithium batteries, but not to all countries that Stackry services.  

Avoid the problems that come with shipping lithium batteries.

Before you order a lithium battery or a lithium powered device, contact us at support@stackry.com. Our shipping experts will help you determine the restrictions and bans that could potentially delay or cancel your shipment.
