What travels with the quote
The data sheet travels with the quote.
Send the sizes you run now and the quote matches them line by line, or says it cannot.
Delivery
The first order is a pallet of the lines you use most, placed with a deposit. The delivery date is agreed in writing at the same time, to your yard or to the job. Goods are released on payment of the balance, and after that you order to your own cadence.
If a line on your list is not one we quote, we say so on the quote rather than substituting. You keep the account you have for that line.
