FAQs

Yes! We offer complete delivery & installation services provided by GoConfigure. Go Configure is a national delivery and install company bringing 18 years of exceptional white-glove services to homes throughout the US.

We offer these services on many but NOT all products on our store. You will know if we offer installation based on the option for "adding installation" listed on the product page.

For items that we don't yet offer installation on, we recommend our customers to three top-rated websites to inquire about local installation services. Just go to the website below, enter your zip code, and describe the job, and a quote will be generated from all local professionals in your area!

1. Porch.com
   
2. Homeadvisor.com
   
3. Thumbtack.com
   

1. When you add the installation service to your order, your delivery information will be passed on to the installer experts at Go Configure. 
2. Once the item is shown delivered and signed for, the local installer will reach out to the phone number you provided to us at checkout, and will schedule an appointment for installation.  
3. Sit back, relax, and enjoy your new addition!

**Upon completion of the assembly of your item, the installer will verify with you and have you sign off on their performance. 

***If any parts or pieces of your item are discovered dented or damaged and prevent installation from moving forward, the installer will pack up all remaining items, and will reschedule the install date once the pieces have been replaced, at no extra charge to you.

In this instance of damage, please contact support@thebetterbackayrd.com with images of the damage so we can resolve the matter promptly.

We are using the shipping carriers that our suppliers work with. This can be, for example, LTL, SAIA Freight, FedEx or UPS. Our supplier chooses the best shipping carrier according to the weight of the item(s).

LTL is curbside delivery ONLY.  This usually means at the end of the driveway. 

Moving the item is the responsibility of the customer. 

Delivery Drivers are not required to move or unload the items, and may do so at their own discretion.

In the rare event that your delivery is damaged, all of our suppliers will work to quickly send replacement parts or even a completely new delivery if the situation arises. This is entirely up to the discretion of the manufacturer, but your satisfaction as a customer is the top priority of both The Better Backyard and the manufacturers we represent. Please contact us immediately if your delivery is damaged and mark the receipt document that the shipper gives you with the word "DAMAGED" on it to signify into the shipper's system that the delivery was damaged. Parts damaged by the shipping carriers must be reported to us within 10 days of the time the damaged packages arrive.

You should ALWAYS do an inventory check RIGHT AFTER receiving the item. This way we can send out missing or damaged pieces in case you need them. We cannot ensure to send out damaged/missing pieces after weeks or months of receiving the product. Some manufacturers may do this, but not all of them.
