When you receive your shipping confirmation email, clicking through to your order will display tracking information for each separate parcel along with expected delivery dates.

The item I want is out of stock. Will you be getting more stock?

If an item is listed as out of stock on the website, we will be getting more stock in. If there is no due date on the product page when you click on the item, then we do not currently have an estimated date of arrival.  

To be sent an email when an out-of-stock product arrives at our warehouse, click on the product and select ‘Notify me when available’. Here you can enter your email address to receive a notification once the item is back in stock. 

Shopping

You can order directly through our website or by calling our friendly customer service team on 1 833 216 4673 (10am-5pm ET, Mon-Fri). We offer free postage on orders over $99 and a 30-day money back guarantee on all products.

Can I get a discount if I order in bulk?

We do offer bulk buy discounts on our Retractable Hose Reels and Solar Light range. Discounts will automatically apply at checkout where applicable. Please note, bulk buy discounts do not apply during sale and promotional periods. 

Is sales tax included in the price on your website?

No, applicable county and state sales taxes will be automatically added to your cart once you have entered your shipping and billing information.

Our website store is completely secure and encrypted in line with industry and legislative standards. We do not store any credit card information on our website.

It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security System (PCI-DSS).

Warranty

What is and isn't covered by the warranty policy?

We work hard to help our customers with any product related issues you may have. We commit our products to be free of defects in materials and workmanship that result in failure during normal usage.

Warranties are covered for the original purchaser (unless purchased as a gift) and from the date delivery occurred. As we sell direct to consumer, any 3rd party resales are considered unauthorized purchases and as such are not covered by our warranty policy.

The warranty does not cover misuse, unauthorized modifications, and external causes such as acts of nature. The warranty does not cover general wear and tear or damage to any non-Hoselink product used in connection with a Hoselink product.

How do I make a warranty claim?

Please contact our team via one of the below channels: 

  • Live chat (bottom right corner of the website)
  • Email – support@hoselink.com
  • Phone – 1 833 216 4673

You will be required to provide details of the original purchase made, such as name and address, order number (if known), along with details of the product fault. Providing a photo or short video via email often speeds up the process and may be required in some instances.

If the item cannot be repaired, items will be replaced with the same item originally purchased or closest available in our current product range. For items that cannot be replaced, we will offer a credit to be used on a future purchase. If we require the item to be returned for repair or inspection, we will supply a pre-paid postage label so you can return the item at no cost to you, via any local UPS Drop-Off point.

Account

I can’t sign into my account
