Shipping Methods and Costs
Shipping Options
Maxwill Sports offers a variety of shipping methods to meet your delivery needs:
-
Standard Shipping – a reliable and cost-effective option with delivery times tailored to regional fulfillment partners.
-
Expedited Shipping – available in select regions for faster delivery. The availability of these services will be determined at checkout based on your location and order specifications.
Cost Determination
Shipping costs are calculated based on several factors including product weight, dimensions, destination, and the chosen shipping method. In cases where free standard shipping is offered, such promotions are clearly indicated during the checkout process. Any additional charges incurred, such as for expedited shipping, will be transparently displayed prior to finalising your order.
Estimated Delivery Times
Regional Delivery Estimates
Maxwill Sports is dedicated to setting realistic expectations regarding delivery timelines. The estimated delivery times, exclusive of weekends and public holidays, are as follows:
- For orders processed by our European partners (either from the Hebei Chaofeng facility or lnerzia B.V. in the Netherlands), delivery is typically expected within 7–14 business days, although this may vary depending on the destination country and local courier performance.
- Orders handled through the South East Asia distribution centre in Shenzhen generally reach customers within 5–10 business days.
- For orders shipped directly from our head office in China, standard international shipping typically takes 10–20 business days.
External Factors and Transit
It is important to note that these estimates may be influenced by external factors such as customs processing, local courier handling, logistical delays, and unforeseen disruptions (e.g., severe weather conditions). Maxwill Sports will communicate any significant delays promptly and work with customers to mitigate inconvenience.
Tracking and Updates
Order Tracking
Once your order has been dispatched, Maxwill Sports will provide tracking information via email and/or through your order account on our website. This information allows you to monitor your shipment’s progress from dispatch to final delivery.
Carrier Integration
Our logistics partners update tracking details as the shipment moves through different stages. Customers are encouraged to utilise the tracking links provided to verify the current status of their orders. Any discrepancies observed should be reported directly to our customer support team.
International Shipping and Customs
Customs, Duties, and Taxes
International orders may be subject to customs clearance procedures, import duties, taxes, or other fees imposed by the destination country. Responsibility for these charges lies solely with the recipient. Customers are advised to check with their local customs office to understand the policies and fees applicable to their orders.
Cross-Border Considerations
Maxwill Sports ensures that all necessary export documentation accompanies international shipments. However, delays caused by customs processing or regulatory requirements are beyond our control and may influence the overall delivery time. Customers will receive guidance on any additional requirements prior to shipping if pertinent to their order destination.
Freight and Bulk Orders
Oversized and Bulk Shipments
For freight orders, particularly those involving larger equipment or bulk shipments, special procedures are in place. Freight orders will include:
- An upfront communication outlining scheduling details and any requirements for receiving the shipment (e.g., availability of an adult recipient, appropriate space for delivery).
- A pre-delivery checklist advising on inspection protocols upon receipt and instructions for reporting any discrepancies or damages at the time of delivery.
Customer Obligations
It is essential that customers confirm that the delivery location is prepared to receive freight orders. In cases where customers are unavailable during the scheduled delivery, arrangements must be made in advance to reschedule or to designate an alternative recipient.
Handling Delays and Exceptions
Carrier-Related Issues
Maxwill Sports utilises trusted courier and freight partners to ensure timely delivery. In the event that delays are experienced due to carrier issues such as logistical disruptions, traffic disturbances, or unexpected operational challenges, customers will be informed through their preferred communication channels (email, SMS, or account notifications). While we strive for on-time delivery, such factors lie beyond the immediate control of Maxwill Sports.
High-Demand and Exceptional Circumstances
During periods of high demand or unexpected events (such as natural disasters or public health emergencies), processing and shipping times may extend. Customers will be advised of these delays at the time of order confirmation and provided with updated delivery estimates as information becomes available.
Amendments to This Policy
Maxwill Sports reserves the right to modify or update this Shipping Policy at any time. Changes will be communicated through our website, and the revised policy will be effective immediately upon posting. Continued use of our services following any changes constitutes acknowledgement and acceptance of the updated Shipping Policy.

By placing an order, the customer confirms their understanding and acceptance of the terms outlined herein. Maxwill Sports is dedicated to ensuring that every order is handled with the utmost care, transparency, and professionalism to deliver a superior shopping experience.
