How are shipping surfboards handled?

• Surfboards are excluded from Free Freight. Standard surfboard rates are $125 to most California addresses. Additional fees will apply per shipment to location outside of CA based on your zone. We may request an additional $60 for delivery to your residence outside of CA. We do not currently ship boards over 8'0" to Arizona, Colorado, Nevada or Texas due to carrier limitations. If you have questions or wish to reach out regarding quote, email logan@southcoast.com. We will work with our preferred freight handlers to find the best price to have your board safely delivered and contact you with any additional fees if necessary.

Who am I buying from?

• Your purchase is with South Coast but your order may be fulfilled in part from South Coast directly and or from Exchange Collective which allows us to offer you an expanded inventory.

Who is Exchange Collective?

• Exchange Collective is our partner company that helps provide our site with more buying options. We work hand in hand with them to insure you the best selection and customer service.

Who Ships my order?

• Orders placed on our website are sometimes shipped directly from the brands but may also be shipped or picked up directly from one of our 5 locations depending on availability. Your order confirmation email will notify you of where your product(s) is coming from.

When will my order ship?

• We along with our brands normally ship within 2 business days of receipt of the order. Our shipping hours are 10am-4:30pm PST and orders placed after 4:30pm will be processed on the next business day. We encourage our brands to ship as quickly as possible so your order may be shipped the same day. You will receive an email with tracking info once your item(s) have shipped.

Can I get faster shipping?

• Right now all orders placed on our site are shipped via ground. For orders under $75 there will be a flat fee starting at $5. Any order over $75 will receive free shipping. Surfboards are excluded from Free Freight. Standard surfboard rates start at $125. Additional fees will apply for mid length and longboards depending on weight and destination.
• Because some orders are being shipped directly from the Brand(s) we want to make sure no mistakes happen. Ground is the safest way to make sure you get what you order. As soon as faster options become available we will let you know.
• If you are in a rush, just give us a call at 619-223-4431 and we will do our best to get it to you as quickly as possible.

What if the item I ordered is not what I received?

• Unfortunately, mistakes do happen and we will do whatever we can to make it right.
• Email cs@southcoast.com with your order number so we can make things right as soon as possible.

What if I received an Out of Stock email?

• This means that one of the brands you ordered from did not actually have it in stock. You will not be charged for any items that don’t ship to you.
• Exchange Collective and South Coast monitor our inventory on a regular basis to keep our online inventory up to date. In the rare case we run out of an item, you will automatically receive a refund.
