Local Deliveries

Most local deliveries can be accommodated with next-day service and in some cases, even same-day service. However, we do recommend communicating your lab's specific needs to your Account Manager ahead of time so we can provide you and the rest of our clients with the quality of service that you and they deserve.

Regional Deliveries

Most regional deliveries are delivery points outside of 100mi from any SD branch. Regional delivery routes are accommodated with weekly or bi-weekly service. Please work with your Dedicated Account Manager to communicate your lab's specific needs ahead of time so we can provide you and the rest of our regional clients with the quality of service that extractors deserve.

3rd Party Deliveries and Shipping

Our dedicated Shipping Coordinator is committed to ensuring your 3rd party delivery, e -commerce shipment and all other shipping needs are met to the highest standards in the industry. Our Dedicated Account Managers will collaborate with the Shipping Coordinator to ensure your order is expedited in the fastest lanes, for the best pricing so we can provide you with the quality of service that extractors deserve.

Notifications

Because we know how valuable your time and how critical lab supply both are to your operations, we also offer text alerts for your deliveries. Most of our clients opt-in to our text alert feature because it helps with the scheduling and ETA of your delivery. You can subscribe to our text alerts by visiting this link: https://www.solventdirect.com/text-opt-int

DRY ICE ORDERING

Dry ice sublimates at a rate of 3-6% per day and we do our best to deliver the freshest dry ice at the lowest prices possible. For this reason, dry ice production and order deadlines vary by region. In most markets, dry Ice orders must be received by 3pm local time one business day prior to delivery, however in regions such as Oklahoma CO2 supply is scarce and we require 1 week lead times for orders. In other regions that we service using partner carriers, we may require additional lead time to ensure a smooth supply chain.

Please contact your Account Manager or a Supply Specialist at 1-833-PURE-GAS to confirm what the specific dry ice ordering requirements are in your region.

Bins and Refundable Deposits require a $600 refundable bin deposit upon delivery of the first bin. In some regions we also charge a daily rental fee after an initial period of free rent. All bins must be returned to Solvent Direct and Solvent Direct will not accept any bins or containers not provided by Solvent Direct. After 10 days dry ice bins will accrue rent of $7 per day.

Deposit returns take 2 weeks to complete from date received and return payment will be processed through check.​
