Shipping Methods: New Cyclone Rakes
Due to winter weather conditions FedEx may experience delays. You can read more about this HERE. In addition to delays, not all packages may arrive at the same time. If you’re expecting delivery of a new Cyclone Rake, remember to wait until you receive Box # 1 that says “Open this Box First” before opening the others.
All our tools, parts, and accessories will ship by one of the following methods, typically based on the size of the item(s) being shipped:
- FedEx Home Delivery
- Freight (examples include FedEx Freight, ABF). These items will be on a pallet.
- US Postal Service (for most after-market parts).
We use FedEx Home Delivery so we’re able to ship directly to your home and avoid the challenges of LTL Freight deliveries. Many of our customers cannot accommodate a tractor trailer on their road or driveway, so the option for freight shipments is not practical. FedEx Home Deliveries are made every day of the week, so Cyclone Rakes can be delivered even on Saturdays and Sundays.
Shipping Methods: Reconditioned Cyclone Rakes
We’ll use ABF Freight to ship your order. It will arrive on a pallet. Naturally, we’ll make sure everything is well labeled for easy reference.

You’ll get your order on a single pallet using a Lift Gate Service, which means they’ll remove the pallet from the truck and place it on your driveway. (ABF Freight is our preferred carrier, but in some cases, another carrier will be chosen to get your order to you as soon as possible.)
All our reconditioned parts, and accessories will ship by one of the following methods, typically based on the size of the item(s) being shipped:

Return Policy for New Products:
We stand behind all the products, parts and accessories.
New Cyclone Rakes: If at any time during your New Cyclone 6-Month Rake Peace of Mind Trial, you opt to return your Cyclone Rake, we will refund your purchase (less sales tax after 90 days*). A $299 Return Processing Fee will be deducted from your refund to help cover return shipping and inspection. If you picked up your Cyclone Rake at the factory, just bring it back during normal business hours and we’ll handle the rest. There are no restocking fees or hidden costs beyond the return fee. The only requirement for a full refund is that you use approved box sizes and a company-issued RMA, as proper packaging helps control freight costs. The Peace of Mind Trial is available one time, per household or business, to new customers only.
New Cyclone Nut Rakes: If at any time during your New Cyclone Nut Rake 90-day Peace of Mind Trial, you opt to return it and we will refund your purchase (less sales tax after 90 days*). A $149 Return Processing Fee will be deducted from your refund to cover return shipping and product inspection. Factory pickups can be returned directly to us during normal business hours. There are no restocking fees. For a full refund, simply use approved box sizes and a company-issued RMA—this ensures safe return shipping and helps us manage freight costs.

Return Policy for Reconditioned Products:
If you need to return an item because of a defect in workmanship or materials, we will pay the cost of shipping the product back to us. We will ask for pictures and a description of the material or workmanship issue, and all returns must be authorized by a Customer Service representative. We’ll then refund 100% of the purchase price* and issue an RMA. (That’s a fancy way of saying return paperwork.)
If there are no defects in workmanship or materials, we will review your return request. The product must be in like new condition and cannot have been used prior to return. If we approve the return, you will be responsible for all packaging and shipping costs for the item(s). This return policy is in effect for 30 days from the date of shipment from us so please review everything when you get it. This covers all reconditioned Cyclone Rakes, parts and accessories.
