Sales Tax Policy

Last Updated March 15, 2026

This Sales Tax Policy explains how applicable sales tax is handled for purchases made from Y-Containers.

Y-Containers is operated by Y-Containers LLC and is based in Smithshire, Illinois.

1. Product Prices & Sales Tax

Product prices displayed on the Y-Containers website are shown in U.S. dollars (USD).

Unless specifically stated otherwise, displayed product prices do not include sales tax.

Applicable sales tax, when required, is calculated based on the order and delivery information provided during the purchasing process.

Customers will have an opportunity to review applicable taxes and the total order amount before completing payment.

2. How Sales Tax Is Determined

Sales tax requirements can vary depending on the customer's delivery location and applicable state and local tax requirements.

Y-Containers collects and remits sales tax where required by applicable law.

The amount of sales tax charged, when applicable, is determined based on the information associated with the order and the applicable tax requirements at the time of purchase.

3. Sales Tax at Checkout

Before completing an online purchase, customers should review the complete order summary.

The order summary may include:

  • Product price

  • Delivery charge

  • Applicable sales tax

  • Other applicable charges disclosed as part of the order

  • Total amount due

Customers should review this information before submitting payment.

If you have questions about the tax displayed on your order, please contact Y-Containers before completing the purchase.

4. Delivery Charges & Tax

Y-Containers uses a flat-rate delivery charge for eligible deliveries within our stated delivery area.

Whether sales tax applies to a delivery charge depends on the applicable tax requirements for the transaction.

Any applicable tax calculated during the purchasing process should be included in the customer's order total before payment is completed.

For information about delivery charges and delivery requirements, please review our Shipping & Delivery Policy.

5. Tax-Exempt Purchases

Customers who believe they qualify for a sales tax exemption should contact Y-Containers before completing their purchase.

Valid documentation may be required to verify tax-exempt status.

Please send tax-exemption inquiries and applicable documentation to:

sales@y-containers.com

Approval of tax-exempt status is subject to applicable requirements and verification of the documentation provided.

Customers should receive confirmation of the applicable tax treatment before completing a tax-exempt purchase.

6. Changes to Tax Rates or Requirements

Sales tax rates and requirements may change.

The applicable tax treatment for an order is determined based on the relevant transaction information and tax requirements in effect at the time of purchase.

Website information regarding sales tax may be updated when applicable requirements or our collection obligations change.

7. Refunds & Sales Tax

When an eligible order or product is refunded, any applicable sales tax associated with the refundable amount will be handled according to the transaction and applicable tax requirements.

Refund eligibility and processing are governed by our Returns & Refunds Policy.
