Cancellation & Refund Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2025
At Valet Wax (Tech, LLC), we strive to provide exceptional service. We understand that plans change, and this policy outlines our approach to cancellations and refunds.
Full Refund Window
Cancel more than 1 hour before scheduled pickup for a full refund
Late Cancellation
Cancellations within 1 hour of pickup are subject to fees
Service Guarantee
Quality issues resolved with re-service or credit, not refunds
1. Cancellation Policy
Full Refund Cancellations (More Than 1 Hour Before Pickup)
You may cancel your booking and receive a full refund if you cancel more than 1 hour before your scheduled pickup time. To cancel:
- Contact us at hi@valetwax.com or (435) 334-4455
- Provide your order number and reason for cancellation
- Cancellation must be confirmed by our team
- Refunds will be processed within 5-7 business days to your original payment method
Late Cancellations (Within 1 Hour of Pickup)
Cancellations made within 1 hour of your scheduled pickup time are subject to fees because:
- Our courier is already en route or has arrived at your location
- Logistics costs have been incurred
- We have reserved capacity for your service
Late cancellation fees are 50% of the total booking amount. In exceptional circumstances, we may waive this fee at our discretion.
No-Show Policy
If you are not available at the scheduled pickup time and location, or if equipment is not ready for pickup, we reserve the right to charge the full service amount. We will attempt to contact you, but repeated missed pickups may result in restrictions on future bookings.
2. Refund Policy
When Refunds Are Not Provided
We maintain high service standards, and refunds are generally not provided once services have been completed. Specifically, refunds are not available for:
- Change of mind after service completion
- Normal service results that meet industry standards
- Pre-existing equipment conditions not disclosed at booking
- Subjective preferences regarding wax temperature or edge angles
- Weather changes after wax application
- Partial delivery delays that do not affect your ability to ski/ride
Service Credits vs. Refunds
In most situations where you experience an issue, we prefer to resolve it through:
- Re-service: If there's a quality issue with our work, we'll re-service your equipment at no charge
- Service credit: Applied to your account for future bookings
- Partial credit: For minor inconveniences or delivery issues
This approach ensures we maintain our quality standards while providing you with value.
3. When Refunds May Be Considered
We may provide full or partial refunds in the following circumstances:
Service Not Performed
- We failed to pick up your equipment as scheduled
- Services paid for were not performed
- We cancelled your booking due to capacity or operational issues
Slopes to Slopes Guarantee Failure
