Terms & Conditions

Processing Time & Shipping

  • Repair and sharpening services may take up to 2 weeks to complete.
  • Ground shipping charges will be applied on domestic orders.
  • Return Shipping Instructions: Please include a packing list with all instruments and specify your return shipping preference (e.g., Next Day Air). Orders without shipping instructions will be shipped via ground service.

Sterilization Requirements

  • All surgical instruments must be sterilized and sealed in a sterilization pouch with proof of a CDC-approved sterilization method.
  • Instruments that are not properly sterilized and sealed will be returned at the sender’s expense without processing.

Packing Guidelines

To prevent damage during transit, please pack instruments securely using appropriate materials. Delasco is not responsible for damage caused by inadequate packing.

Do:

  • Use a sturdy box for shipping.
  • Secure instruments with bubble wrap, packing peanuts, or paper.
  • Include proof of sterilization by keeping instruments in a sealed sterilization pouch with visible sterilization indicators.
  • Clearly mark the Return Authorization (RA) number on the outside of the box and include it inside with the instruments.
  • Ship via a traceable method and consider insurance for protection against loss.

Don’t:

  • Send instruments that are unclean or without proof of sterilization.
  • Use envelopes—they can tear, resulting in lost instruments.
  • Omit protective packaging—loose instruments can puncture boxes, posing risks to carriers and potentially damaging instruments beyond repair.

Please send instruments to:
