International Shipping


Walker Tape® is a trusted company, and we’ve been shipping internationally for almost 30 years. We’ve shipped over 8,000 international orders to 30+ countries.

For international shipping, rules and regulations vary from country to country. Due to these differences, you are responsible for all duties and taxes associated with your order, along with knowing how to handle shipments in your home country.

We are here to help as we can, but we highly recommend working with a professional in your area who can ensure you understand the full process as it pertains to your location.



Ordering Flammable Products


Most of Walker Tape® 's liquid products are considered hazardous, there are certain requirements that must be met when shipping hazardous materials internationally.

When ordering flammable liquids or products, shipments are reclassified as hazardous. These hazardous shipments are packaged in Hazmat boxes that require certain flammable markings and paperwork before being delivered.

The costs for shipping increases when shipping hazardous shipments. There is also a fee associated with handling hazardous shipments, because shipping companies have to take extra precautions with materials.

See Chart for a List of Walker Tape® 's Flammable Products.


Walker Tape®'s Shipping Tips


Walker Tape® recommends ordering all of your flammable products in one shipment. This will reduce the price per pound for shipping, and save you money on shipping costs.

Our liquid adhesives have about a six-month shelf life when they are unopened and stored in a cool, dark place. Be careful not to overstock.
