4) Damaged, defective, or incorrect items
Freight/LTL deliveries (large/heavy items)
Inspect the shipment before signing the delivery receipt.

within 48 hours with photos and your order number.
Parcel deliveries (UPS/FedEx/USPS)
Report visible damage, missing parts, or wrong items within 5 days of delivery with photos to sales@americaplayground.com
.
If the product is confirmed damaged/defective or we shipped the wrong item, we will repair, replace, or refund and cover reasonable return shipping/freight costs.
5) Costs for returns (buyer’s remorse, fit, color, etc.)
You are responsible for return shipping/freight and insurance.
A 15% restocking fee applies to non-defective returns to cover inspection, repackaging, and processing.
Note: Oversize/freight items that require special handling may incur up to 25% restocking (we’ll confirm in writing before you ship).
Outbound shipping paid on the original order is non-refundable.
6) Packaging & condition on return
Use the original packaging and crate/pallet when applicable. Items arriving damaged due to poor repacking may be denied or partially refunded.
Include all parts, hardware, tools, manuals, and freebies/promos.
7) Refunds
Refunds are issued to the original payment method after the return is received and inspected.
Typical processing time: 3–10 business days from inspection completion (your bank may take longer to post).
If a return is denied or missing parts, we’ll notify you and offer options (partial refund, return shipping back to you, etc.).
8) Exchanges
Want a different size/color/model? Start a return (above) and place a new order. For defective/wrong items, we can process an exchange at no cost.
9) Order changes & cancellations
Before shipment: we’ll cancel at no charge.
After shipment: treated as a standard return (you may refuse delivery, but round-trip freight and restocking will apply).
10) Missed delivery, incorrect address, or refusal
If a shipment is returned as undeliverable, refused (non-damage reasons), or addressed incorrectly by the customer, the order will be refunded minus round-trip shipping/freight and applicable restocking.
