Direct Advantage specializes in meeting your custom requirements. In order to insure the best prices, each quote request is carefully reviewed and may take up to 48 hours. Acceptance of a quotation is indication that the quote has been approved per the specifications listed. Direct Advantage will not be responsible for any discrepancies overlooked during the customer's review process.


All quotes are based on tailgate delivery, meaning the receiving location has a freight dock or personnel on staff to offload merchandise from the rear of a semi-truck trailer. If additional care is needed in the delivery of your merchandise, you must request those additional services when requesting a common carrier shipping charge quotation. These services include, but are not limited to Inside Delivery, Call Before Delivery and Residential Delivery. Additional charges which are requested at the time of delivery and are not included in the original quotation become the responsibility of the delivery site. Deliveries accepted by personnel during the off season must be examined immediately and cannot wait for authorized personnel to return at the start of the regular school season. Please plan accordingly, as some furniture items may have lead times approaching 4-6 weeks.



Prices and terms are liable to change without notice. All shipments will be made at prices prevailing at the time of shipment. Orders requesting shipment beyond delivery schedules may be assessed a price increase.


Product Colors

Colors vary in reproduction and dye lot. Catalog and website color swatches are a digital recreation of the original color and are for reference only. If you need a precise color match or your color is not pictured, please request a free sample of fabric, felt, vinyl, wood or metal.



Standard Ground UPS shipping charges will be applied in the cart for all items that ship UPS (minimum $ 9.95 shipping charge). Because many of our items are too large for UPS and must ship via a freight carrier, a manual shipping calculation must be done to ensure the lowest possible shipping amount. You have the option to request the shipping quote prior to charging your credit card, or you may choose to process your order as long as shipping charges do not exceed 15% of your invoice total. Orders are processed the next business day


All products ship F.O.B. factory at the customer's expense unless otherwise quoted. Preferred shipment method is UPS. Certain products must ship Common Carrier, which will be chosen to the best of our abilities unless otherwise requested. All orders requiring Common Carrier charges will be quoted by our customer service department before processing. Specific shipment dates are not guaranteed due to possible conditions beyond our control. We reserve the right to hold shipment of all open orders to customers whose account is past due.


Returns & Cancellations

All orders are considered firm orders. All returns and cancellations must be authorized by Direct Advantage in advance and are subject to round trip shipping charges and restocking fees. Materials being returned must be in saleable condition and should be insured. You are responsible for all materials invoiced. If you need to cancel an order, you must obtain a cancellation order number from a customer service representative. If product has shipped, or a custom order is in process, we may not be able to fulfill your request.


Damaged Goods

Please inspect merchandise immediately upon delivery and report any damage. Damaged or lost merchandise claims must be filed with the carrier within 10 days of receipt of good. Once the product leaves a warehouse, it becomes property of the customer.


Please follow these steps when receiving products:

1. Check the number of items. If you are short a package, please note it on the carrier's delivery receipt prior to signing. Direct Advantage is not responsible for shortages unless noted on the delivery ticket.

2. Open cartons and check all products for damage before signing carrier's delivery ticket. If the carton appears to have been damaged in any manner or if the product has any damage, you must note the extent and the type of damage on the carrier's delivery ticket prior to signing. Please keep a copy of the signed ticket and call Direct Advantage immediately to report the damage. Direct Advantage assumes no responsibility for damaged products when receiving personnel fail to note damage, fail to inspect products at the time of delivery and/or fail to notify Direct Advantage the day they received damaged products.

3. Keep damaged goods and packaging in the receiving area. If the product is moved from the delivery area, the damage becomes the responsibility of receiving personnel. Do not throw away any of the packaging on a damaged item. Discarding packaging could result in a failure to prove carrier damage and could consequently affect your ability to file a claim. All packaging materials must be available for carrier inspection.

Even if damaged, Don't Refuse the Shipment!
