Sales Tax Policy
At Container Tree, we are committed to clear and honest communication with our customers. This Sales Tax Policy explains how we calculate, collect, and remit sales tax in accordance with applicable state, local, and international regulations.
Our goal is to ensure that every purchase is handled transparently, with no hidden fees or unexpected charges.
1. Sales Tax Collection
Container Tree collects sales tax on applicable orders as required by United States state and local tax laws.
The sales tax rate applied to an order is determined based on the shipping or delivery address provided at checkout.
The calculated sales tax amount will be automatically displayed at checkout before payment is confirmed. Your invoice or order confirmation email will include a detailed breakdown of the subtotal, shipping cost, and any applicable sales tax.
2. Tax Nexus and Jurisdictions
We comply with U.S. tax regulations in all jurisdictions where our business has established a tax nexus, which may include:
Our registered business location in Arkansas
The presence of employees or operational activity in certain states
Meeting economic thresholds defined by state laws for online commerce
As our business grows, we may become required to collect sales tax in additional states. Any updates will automatically be reflected during checkout and within this policy.
3. Sales Tax Exemptions
Certain purchases or organizations may qualify for sales tax exemptions under applicable laws.
If you are a tax-exempt organization, reseller, or government entity, please contact us before placing your order and provide valid exemption documentation for verification.
Once approved, your account may be marked as tax-exempt for eligible purchases.
4. Sales Tax Remittance
All collected sales taxes are remitted directly to the appropriate state and local tax authorities according to applicable reporting schedules.
Container Tree strictly follows all federal and state tax reporting requirements. We do not retain or profit from any sales tax collected.
5. International Orders
Sales tax generally does not apply to international shipments. However, customers may be responsible for import duties, value-added tax (VAT), customs charges, or other local taxes imposed by their country.
These charges are determined by the destination country’s customs authority and are not controlled or collected by Container Tree.
6. Policy Updates
This Sales Tax Policy may be updated periodically to reflect:
Changes in tax regulations or rates
Expansion of our business operations into new jurisdictions
Adjustments to internal compliance procedures
Any updates will become effective immediately once published on our website.
