Sales Tax Policy
This Sales Tax Policy explains how sales tax is applied to purchases made through Colli Trans Containers within the United States.
Because our products involve high-value equipment and freight delivery, sales tax treatment depends on delivery location, buyer status, and applicable state regulations.
When Sales Tax Is Collected
Sales tax is applied only where legally required under U.S. state and local tax laws.
Grand Ship Containers. collects sales tax in states where we have sales tax nexus, which may include:
- Physical presence (such as offices, warehouses, or operational facilities)
- Economic nexus thresholds based on transaction volume or revenue
Sales tax, when applicable, is calculated based on the delivery address, not the billing address.
States Where Sales Tax May Apply
As a Texas-based company with operational facilities in Texas:
- Texas sales tax is generally applied to taxable transactions delivered within the state, unless a valid exemption applies.
- For deliveries to other U.S. states, sales tax may apply depending on:
- State-specific nexus rules
- Product taxability classifications
- Transaction thresholds
We continuously monitor state tax obligations to remain compliant.
Tax Calculation & Checkout Display
- Applicable sales tax is calculated automatically at checkout or reflected on the official invoice.
- Tax is displayed clearly and separately from product price and shipping charges.
- No hidden or post-checkout tax adjustments are applied.
This ensures transparency for both customers and compliance platforms.
Tax-Exempt Purchases
Certain buyers may qualify for sales tax exemption, including but not limited to:
- Resellers
- Government agencies
- Non-profit organizations
- Agricultural or industrial exemptions (where applicable)
Requirements for exemption:
- A valid, state-approved sales tax exemption certificate
- Certificate must be submitted before payment is completed
- Certificates are reviewed and verified prior to tax removal
If valid documentation is not provided in advance, sales tax will be charged and cannot be retroactively removed.
Product Taxability Clarification

- Product category (e.g., containers, trailers, accessories)
- Intended use
- State-specific tax classifications for tangible personal property
Shipping containers, trailers, and related equipment are generally considered taxable tangible goods in many jurisdictions, but exemptions or reduced rates may apply in specific cases.
