Ordering & Shipping

Collapsible content

How do I place an order?

Administrators can place orders in the portal two ways: add items to your cart, or upload your PO. When you upload a PO, the portal reads it and fills in the PO number, ship-to address and items for you to check before you submit. You can still email POs to us as you do today, email orders@skil-care.com, call Customer Service at (800) 431-2972, fax your order to (914) 963-2567, or send an EDI transmission. You can also shop directly on Skil-Care.com: search or browse to a product page and click Add to Cart. Consumers can use the Dealer Locator in the menu above to find an authorized dealer and contact them to order.

To ship an order directly to your customer, enter your customer's address as the ship-to. Use “Address line 2” for a department, attention line or suite, and enter your customer's PO number in “Your customer's PO # (drop-ship).” We include it in the ship-to address on your order.

Can I buy direct from Skil-Care?

Yes. You can purchase Skil-Care products in two ways: order online directly at skil-care.com by searching for a product and clicking Add to Cart, or buy through an authorized dealer. To find a dealer near you, use our Dealer Locator in the menu above and contact them directly to place your order.

Will I get an order confirmation?

Yes. Once your order is entered into our system, we email a confirmation showing the details as we entered them. Please check it and reply right away if anything looks wrong.

How do I track my shipment?

We email a shipping notice with tracking when your order ships. You can also see tracking on the Orders tab in the portal.

When will my order ship?

Most orders ship quickly. For a specific ship date, contact customer service.

Sales tax?

New York State sales tax is charged on local tax percentages determined by the location receiving the merchandise unless we received a validated copy of a New York State exemption or resale certificate. Shipments outside of New York are not charged sales tax.

Shipping charges?

Shipping charges are calculated at time of shipment. Shipping quotes are simply an estimate and could be different from the actual shipping charges appearing on the invoice. Shipping charges added to the invoice and/or shipments under recipient's account are F.O.B. seller's location and risk of loss is the responsibility of the recipient.

I'm a user. Why can't I place an order?

Ordering is limited to administrators. Click “Request administrator access” in the portal or ask an administrator on your account.

How do I view my order history?

Open the Orders tab. You can see open orders and up to 24 months of past orders.

How do I view my invoices?

Open the Invoices tab. You can view and download any invoice, open or paid.

Will I get order and shipping emails if we order through EDI?

No. EDI accounts keep receiving order and shipping information through EDI. You can still use the portal to view orders, invoices and pricing.

Managing your account and team

Collapsible content

How do I update my email address?

Your email address is your login, so contact customer service to change it. If a colleague has left your company, an administrator on your account can remove them from the Team tab.

How do I add or remove people on my account?

Administrators can invite colleagues and remove people who have left from the Team tab. Users can ask an administrator or contact customer service.

Who gets order confirmation and shipping emails?

By default, the person who sent the PO, everyone copied on the PO email, and the contacts we have on file for your account.

How do I change who gets those emails?

Any of these options works:

  • Administrators can add or remove people from the Team tab.
  • Click “Update who gets these emails” at the bottom of any order or shipping email.
  • Reply to the email and tell us who to add or remove.
  • Copy the people you want on the email when you send us your PO.

Getting an account

Collapsible content

What is the Skil-Care Customer Portal?

It is our new online account center for dealers and facilities that buy directly from Skil-Care. You can check orders and tracking, view and download invoices, see your pricing, request quotes and, for account administrators, place orders.

How do I create an account?

If you already buy from Skil-Care, you don't need to create one. We have set up a login for every email address we have on file for your company, such as the people who send us POs or receive our invoices. Go to the sign-in page and choose “First time here? Set up your password.” If you are new to Skil-Care, your account will be set up after you are approved as a dealer. To start, visit the “Dealer” section on the top menu of skil-care.com and follow the steps under “Become a Dealer.”

My email isn't recognized. How do I get added?

Ask an administrator on your account to invite you from the Team tab, or contact customer service and we will add you.

What is the difference between a user and an administrator?

Both users and administrators can see orders and tracking, view and download invoices, see account pricing and request quotes. Only administrators can place orders, invite colleagues and manage your team, and choose who gets order and shipping emails. Anyone who has emailed us a purchase order starts as an administrator. Everyone else starts as a user.

How do I become an administrator?

Click “Request administrator access” in the portal. Our customer service team will review it and let you know. If you send us a PO by email, you will also be made an administrator automatically once that order is entered.

What is my username?

Your username is your email address. You no longer sign in with your Skil-Care customer number.

How do I sign in for the first time?

On the sign-in page, choose “First time here? Set up your password.” Enter your work email address. Check your inbox for an email from Skil-Care Customer Service with a sign-in code. Enter the code on the sign-in page, then create your password.

Can I change my password?

Yes. Use “Forgot password” on the sign-in page at any time to set a new one.

I'm having trouble signing in. What should I do?
