Delivery and Scheduling
What delivery frequencies do you offer?
Get Work Essentials offers recurring delivery options including biweekly, monthly, quarterly, and bi-annually, with weekly delivery available in some higher-tier plans.
Can different items have different delivery frequencies?
Yes. Different items in the same subscription can have different cadences based on your business needs.
Can I change my delivery schedule later?
Yes. You can adjust, pause, scale, or modify your plan as your needs change.
Do you group recurring deliveries to reduce visits?
Yes. Where possible, we try to align recurring deliveries to the same customer delivery pattern to reduce extra visits and keep scheduling simple.
How are monthly, quarterly, or bi-annual deliveries scheduled if delivery is Friday-only?
For month-based plans, we try to follow the same customer anchor Friday so your deliveries stay predictable and easy to understand.
What happens if I modify an item mid-subscription?
If an item’s cadence is changed mid-subscription, we try to align the next eligible delivery to your existing delivery pattern to avoid confusion.
What if I add a new item after my subscription has already started?
New items are added to the next eligible delivery cycle based on product lead time, cutoff timing, and your existing delivery pattern where possible.
What if I add a new biweekly item mid-subscription?
We try to align the first delivery of that new biweekly item with your existing anchor Friday where possible. After that, the biweekly item continues on its own 14-day recurring cycle.
Do you offer priority or custom delivery scheduling?
Yes. Priority delivery slots and custom delivery scheduling are available in certain higher-tier plans.
What happens on holidays or blackout dates?
If a scheduled delivery falls on a holiday or service blackout date, we move it to the nearest available delivery slot. We will also send an email with the updated billing date and delivery date for that delivery cycle.
What happens if a product is temporarily unavailable?
If an item is unavailable, we will recommend a suitable substitute or update you with the next available option.
Billing and Payments
What payment methods do you accept?
We currently accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, and PAD bank transfer.
When will I be billed?
You are billed right away for the first delivery, and then 3 business days before each recurring delivery.
Are there delivery fees?
Delivery pricing is built into your plan or quote unless otherwise stated.
Will I be notified if billing or delivery changes because of a holiday or blackout date?
Yes. If a delivery cycle changes because of a holiday or blackout date, we will email you the updated billing date and delivery date.
Changes, Pauses, and Cancellations
Can I pause my subscription?
Yes. You can pause your subscription as long as the next delivery cycle has not already entered billing.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. You can cancel anytime as long as you have not already been billed for the next delivery cycle.
How late can I make changes before my next delivery?
You can pause, cancel, or modify items up to 4 business days before delivery. After that point, the next cycle may already be processed and billed.
Can I add or remove products after my subscription starts?
Yes. You can update products, quantities, and cadence as your workplace needs change.
Can I change quantities after my subscription starts?
Yes. Quantities can be adjusted as your team size, usage, or seasonal demand changes.
Managed Inventory (Automated Stock Management)
Do you offer a fully hands-off inventory option?
Yes. Get Work Essentials offers an optional managed inventory service for customers who want a more hands-off replenishment setup.
How does managed inventory work?
Managed inventory includes monthly on-site visits to review stock levels and adjust replenishment so your team does not need to track everything manually.
