Each order undergoes a detailed verification and processing stage before dispatch.
To understand how orders are placed, verified, and confirmed, please review our complete Order Process.
Processing is initiated only after order confirmation and customer approval of specifications.
Handling time (order preparation and verification) typically ranges from 3 to 15 business days. Order Process

Delivery timelines vary based on distance, order size, and location:
- Metro Cities: Typically 4–5 business days
- Other Locations: Typically 5–10 business days
Delivery timelines are calculated from the date of dispatch.
Total delivery time = Handling time + Transit time.
Note: The aforementioned timeframe is an estimate and may change depending on the actual situation.

Products are transported directly from our factory or warehouse to your site using:
- Truck delivery for inland routes
- Container transport for coastal or port-based towns wherever economically viable
Currently, part shipment is not available. We are working towards offering split deliveries in the near future.

Shipping is charged based on actual transport cost calculated from total shipment weight (in tons) and delivery distance.
Total Freight = Weight (in tons) × Freight Rate (INR per ton)
We charge our customers exactly what we pay for shipping with common carriers.
Freight rates are quoted at actuals during order confirmation.
Customers may also arrange their own transportation—in such cases, we will share transporter contact details upon request.
No additional convenience, packaging, or handling fees are charged beyond the quoted freight cost.

All stone products are safely packed and loaded at our dispatch location following strict handling guidelines to minimize damage.
Learn more about our Packing Methods to understand how we protect your materials during transit.
At the site location, unloading and handling are the buyer’s responsibility.

Transit insurance can be arranged on request prior to dispatch for high-value or large consignments.

Once dispatched, shipment details and tracking updates will be shared via email/WhatsApp.
For any shipment-related queries, please contact our support team at info@stonegalleria.in.

Customers are advised to inspect delivered products upon arrival.
Any visible damage must be reported immediately to the transporter at the time of delivery and noted on the delivery receipt.
Claims for transit damage should be raised within 24 hours of delivery for timely resolution.

To ensure the safe unloading and installation of stone slabs and tiles, please follow these important guidelines:
- Use proper handling equipment such as cranes, forklifts, or slab lifters to unload the material safely. Avoid manual handling wherever possible due to the heavy weight of natural stone.
- Always keep slabs in an upright position on sturdy A-frames or slab stands after unloading.
- Do not lean slabs directly against walls or unstable surfaces, as the weight can cause breakage or serious accidents.
- Inspect all slabs and tiles upon delivery before signing off with the transporter. Report any visible damage immediately.
- Ensure the storage area is level and dry, and protected from mud, water, or chemical exposure.

FAQ About Stone Galleria’s Shipping and Delivery
