Some items like cargo boxes and rooftop tents ship directly from the manufacturer using dedicated trucks. These deliveries can take up to two weeks and require your presence upon arrival. Please note that these direct shipments cannot be canceled or returned once ordered.

Rack Attack does offer shipping options, but please note that free shipping is not available. When you order, the website will automatically show the cost for the most economical shipping option, typically via USPS. Keep in mind that USPS deliveries can take up to a month. For faster delivery, we recommend upgrading to UPS air shipping.

In the uncommon situation where you receive damaged goods from Rack Attack, customer satisfaction remains a top priority. If the item has only cosmetic damage and you choose to keep it, Rack Attack offers a suitable partial refund. Alternatively, you have the option to return the item for either a replacement or a full refund, ensuring a solution that meets your needs.

Additionally, if the product is missing any items, Rack Attack will replace those items or exchange the entire unit to resolve the issue.

For oversized or special items, Rack Attack may require additional charges or longer delivery times, as these factors are dependent on the specific product characteristics. Handling fees for such items are clearly indicated on each product's page. Also, some products might be shipped directly from the manufacturer, potentially extending the arrival time.

Rack Attack primarily serves customers in Canada and the continental United States, focusing on delivering quality service in these areas. Unfortunately, international shipping, including to overseas territories (like Puerto Rico) and military bases, is not available.

Rack Attack provides efficient ground shipping via UPS, USPS, and Canada Post, ensuring reliable delivery for your rack needs. For all orders exceeding $200, shipping is free within Canada and the continental US. For orders under $200, shipping rates are based on the delivery location, ensuring a fair pricing structure.

For convertibles, a hitch-mount bike rack is usually the best option. This allows for carrying bikes and, with the right adapter, skis or snowboards as well.

One of the most daunting experiences for rack owners is unexpectedly encountering a low-clearance area with gear loaded on top of their vehicle. To avoid such mishaps, we advise measuring the total height of your vehicle with the gear fully loaded. A helpful tip is to tie a string around your finger as a reminder of this new height – it's a simple trick, but it can prevent an unfortunate situation. Remember, even the most experienced adventurers can overlook this, so it's always better to be safe!

No, it's important to remove the rack before washing your car for several reasons:

1. The rack could get caught in the car wash machinery, potentially damaging both your car and the car wash equipment.
2. High-pressure washing, such as wand washing, can drive dirt underneath the rack's pads, leading to damage to your vehicle's finish.
3. Removing the rack allows you to thoroughly clean any water stains or dirt that may have accumulated under the pads. It also provides an opportunity to inspect the contact points of the rack for any signs of wear.

Yes! Rack Attack offers a wide selection of replacement parts online. For items not in stock, we can order them.

Generally, no. Hitches are customized for specific vehicles, so transferring one to a different model is unlikely.

Absolutely! We sell and install a variety of hitch types, suitable for nearly every make and model, including brands like Curt, EcoHitch, and Stealth Hitches. Hitches are a great way to use hitch-mounted bike racks or ski carriers, freeing up your roof rack for other items.

While base rack systems are versatile, they may not be directly transferred from one vehicle to another. You can usually reuse crossbars, towers, and accessories, only needing a new fit kit or clip. Use our Rack Builder to compare options for different vehicles.

For factory racks, we recommend adding an aftermarket rack that clamps onto your raised factory rails. This enhances your rack's versatility and typically increases its weight capacity. Adaptor clips are also available for carrying bikes, skis/snowboards, or kayaks.

Absolutely! Since the mid-eighties, vehicle manufacturers have integrated rain gutters within the door frames for a cleaner and sleeker appearance. These rain gutters are internal, but still functional. Modern racks are designed to mount by resting on the roof with a rubber pad and clamping onto the internal rain gutter. Each clip is specifically designed for different vehicle models, ensuring a secure fit. These racks are not only easy to attach and detach but also carefully designed to prevent any scratches to your paint.

Drilling is not necessary to install most of our racks. However, if you prefer a permanent solution, some vehicles do offer drilling as an option. At Rack Attack, we provide multi-sport systems that easily clamp to the roof, eliminating the need for drilling, welding, or any permanent installation. These systems are designed for ease of use, typically allowing for simple installation and removal.

Your rack options depend on your vehicle's type. To explore your options, use our Rack Builder. Just enter your vehicle's details (year, make, model, etc.), and you'll see all available rack options.

At Rack Attack, we guarantee all installations (standard or custom) for the lifetime of your vehicle. As a retailer, product warranties are exclusively provided by the manufacturers. Most of our products come with a limited lifetime warranty. For specific warranty inquiries, please contact us!
