Sales Tax Policy
Sales Tax Policy
Last updated: 25 June 2026
This Sales Tax Policy explains how sales tax is applied to purchases made through Veltrix Elite Containers within the United States. Because our products involve high-value equipment and freight delivery, sales tax treatment depends on the delivery location, buyer status, and applicable state regulations.
1When Sales Tax Is Collected
Sales tax is applied only where legally required under U.S. state and local tax laws. Veltrix Elite Containers collects sales tax in states where we have a tax nexus, which may include:
- Physical presence, such as offices, warehouses, or operational facilities
- Economic nexus thresholds based on transaction volume or revenue
2States Where Sales Tax May Apply
As an Arizona-based company with operational facilities in Phoenix, Arizona, the Arizona transaction privilege (sales) tax is generally applied to taxable transactions delivered within the state, unless a valid exemption applies. For deliveries to other U.S. states, sales tax may apply depending on:
- State-specific nexus rules
- Product taxability classifications
- Transaction thresholds
We continuously monitor state tax obligations to remain compliant.
3Tax Calculation & Checkout Display
- Applicable sales tax is calculated automatically at checkout or reflected on the official invoice.
- Tax is displayed clearly and separately from the product price and shipping charges.
- No hidden or post-checkout tax adjustments are applied.
This ensures transparency for both customers and compliance platforms.
4Tax-Exempt Purchases
Certain buyers may qualify for a sales tax exemption, including but not limited to:
- Resellers
- Government agencies
- Non-profit organizations
- Agricultural or industrial exemptions, where applicable
To qualify for an exemption, the following requirements apply:
- A valid, state-approved sales tax exemption certificate must be provided
- The certificate must be submitted before payment is completed
- Certificates are reviewed and verified prior to tax removal
5Product Taxability
Sales tax applicability may vary depending on the product category (such as containers, trailers, or accessories), the intended use, and state-specific tax classifications for tangible personal property. Shipping containers, trailers, and related equipment are generally considered taxable tangible goods in many jurisdictions, though exemptions or reduced rates may apply in specific cases.
6Freight & Delivery Charges
- Shipping and freight charges may be taxable or non-taxable depending on state law.
- Where required, tax is applied to delivery charges in compliance with local regulations.
- The tax treatment of freight is disclosed clearly on the invoice.
7Customer Responsibility & Accuracy
Customers are responsible for providing accurate delivery information and submitting valid exemption documentation where applicable. We make every effort to ensure tax accuracy; however, tax laws are subject to change. Veltrix Elite Containers reserves the right to adjust its tax collection practices to remain compliant with evolving regulations.
