What is quoted separately
Because each destination and site is different, the following items are not treated as flat-rate checkout charges:
- International freight and destination delivery.
- Customs duties, import taxes, VAT/GST, brokerage, or local fees.
- Residential access, driveway restrictions, narrow streets, liftgate needs, crane or hoisting requirements.
- In-yard placement from curb or driveway to final outdoor location.
- Local installation labor, gas connection, electrical work, water supply, drainage, anchoring, and final commissioning.
- Region-specific certification, documentation, or compliance requirements.
Delivery markets
Outluma can quote Smart BBQ Pod shipments for the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and selected international markets. The exact logistics route depends on the product configuration, packaging size, port availability, local carrier options, and the buyer's final delivery address.
Typical timeline
The product page timeline is approximately 20-30 business days from order confirmation when an eligible configuration is available. If production is required or the selected configuration is not in stock, allow approximately 60-90 days. Final timing depends on production status, freight route, customs clearance, destination carrier scheduling, and site readiness.
Payment schedule
The checkout button is not intended to collect the full product price. Outluma uses a staged payment process:
- Reservation deposit: buyer pays a $1,000 online reservation deposit through checkout.
- Configuration review: Outluma confirms selected model, features, destination, freight, duties, taxes, and site notes in writing.
- Production payment: after approval, the next payment brings total paid to 50% of the confirmed product price.
- Shipment balance: the remaining balance is paid before shipment.
The $1,000 deposit is applied toward the total project price and is fully refundable until production begins.
Site access checklist
Before reserving a Smart BBQ Pod, gather the following site information. This helps avoid surprise freight, placement, or installation issues later.
| Planning item | What to check |
|---|---|
| Final placement area | Measure width, depth, height clearance, and service access around the pod. |
| Path from delivery point | Check driveway width, gates, turns, slopes, stairs, curbs, and surface strength. |
| Hoisting or crane need | Confirm whether the pod can be moved by ground equipment or requires lifting. |
| Utilities | Plan local gas, electrical, water supply, drainage, and any required permits. |
| Weather and environment | Consider coastal exposure, wind, drainage, rain protection, and long-term maintenance. |
| Local professionals | Identify licensed installers or trades for final connection and commissioning. |
Important product notes
- Gas cylinder is not included.
- Final sink and plumbing configuration is confirmed per order.
- Final dimensions, grill configuration, certification documents, and warranty documents should be confirmed in writing for the buyer's region.
- Large outdoor items may require extra care at delivery. Inspect packaging on arrival and keep original packaging until installation is complete.
