Re: Stockinteriors.com Shipment

ACC has been shipping their carpets in those same boxes for decades ,The most important thing to do is remove the carpet from the box and lay it out flat to relive the "box wrinkles" from it being folded up and shoved in that wonderful shipping box , Laying it out on your driveway on a hot sunny day works the best to relax the wrinkles , DON"T store it in the box , Here are some install tips from the ACC site . https://www.accmats.com/how-to-tutorials/

ACC is a drop ship manufacture of hundreds of different auto carpets , They are made when they are ordered so your new carpet is just days old when you get it . They do it this way to avoid having thousands of different styles of carpet sitting in an expensive warehouse space . Take it out of the box . Most orders are produced and shipped within 24 to 48 hours


If your not ready to install it when it arrives find someplace to store it flat until your ready , In the back of your truck or under your bed works until your wife thinks it's a hairy monster practical joke and then your sleeping on the couch for the next few months !
