    Beyond Zones & Surcharges

    *Our listed shipping rates are for areas that fall within our carrier's standard shipping zones. Zip codes outside of these zones may incur an additional "beyond zone" fee and may require up to an additional 10 business days in transit and a surcharge may apply.  The surcharge will be decided on a case-by-case basis depending on transporter availability and cost. If customer is unwilling to pay the surcharge and an alternate solution is not found, the order will be cancelled and refunded. 

    Please note that these shipping rates apply only to the lower 48 states. We regret that we are unable to offer shipping to Hawaii and Alaska at this time.

    We reserve the right to refuse/cancel any order in which case you will be notified and be refunded immediately.

    *Delivery carriers may be experiencing delays. Vibe is not liable for delays from carriers once the order has been given to the delivery carrier. Please contact the carrier directly for additional information.

    Store Pickup

    You can now save on shipping by purchasing kayaks online and selecting Store Pickup at the cart page. Pickup locations and kayak models for this program are limited but will be expanding in the coming weeks!

    On the product page, look for a green checkmark labeled "Store Pickup" to see eligible kayaks and available locations. If a location is not listed, this means there is not a location available for pickup within 500 miles of your location.


    How to Inspect a Delivered Kayak

    How to Inspect a Delivered Kayak

    It's important to inspect your kayak carefully and thoroughly upon delivery to ensure that you have received everything you ordered and that there are no damages from transit. If any issues are discovered, please contact Vibe Customer Service immediately at [email protected].

    If you aren’t allowed the time needed to inspect and even if the shipment appears intact, you can write ‘Subject to Inspection’ on the documentation before signing. This allows for the possibility of concealed damage, though it’s more difficult to establish and collect a claim if damage is not immediately reported. Please inspect the product thoroughly and as soon as possible — delaying this inspection makes it harder to establish a claim. If damage is found, contact Vibe Customer Service right away to submit a claim.

    If the shipment was delivered without inspection or in your absence/without signature, inspect the product completely as soon as possible (the more time that passes the more difficult establishing a claim will be) and contact customer service to submit a claim if there are issues discovered.

    Kayak Shipping Damage Policy

    NOTE: if the product is signed for or the driver leaves the property without damage being noted, it is unlikely that Vibe Kayaks will be able to process a replacement.

    Returns

    Web Orders

    New items are eligible for a full refund within 15 days of purchase. It is your responsibility to pay the return shipping fees that might be associated with returning the product. Items must be in a new condition, not show any use or wear, must have the retail packaging intact, and must be returned with all originally included parts and accessories.

    Once your returned item is received and inspected by our team, your refund will be processed immediately minus a 20% restocking fee. If the product is found to be in poor condition, or if any originally included parts or accessories are missing, the amount of your refund will be reduced.

    Rigid (polyethylene) kayaks are not covered by the 15-day return policy and cannot be returned. In person returns may be allowed case by case. If you have any questions on what product is right for you prior to purchasing, please feel free to contact our customer service team and ask their advice.

    Any product shortage must be reported within 48 hours from receipt of the order. Shortages must be documented on the Delivery Receipt.

    Vibe Kayaks is not responsible for any shipping fees, nor refund of shipping fees, associated with a customer refusing delivery of their kayak order. It is the customer's sole responsibility to ensure they or the person they purchased the kayak for are there at the shipped-to-address to receive the delivery from the shipping carrier, or have someone authorized to accept delivery on behalf of the customer according to shipping carrier policy. If a kayak delivery is refused by the customer and is returned to Vibe Kayaks, Vibe has the right to charge the customer another shipping fee to re-ship the kayak.

    Store Pickup Orders

    Kayaks are not returnable. If you have any questions on what product is right for you prior to purchasing, contact our customer service team or dealer locations for advice.

    Inspect your kayak carefully. If there is damage, decline the product and email us at [email protected] within 24 hours of your pickup time. Our team will process a refund. If you accept and take the product home, Vibe Kayaks won't be able to replace it or refund your order.


    Order Cancellations & Modifications

    Once an order is placed it begins processing and cannot be modified or cancelled. When you receive your order, you may return the order using our returns instructions (listed above).
