Frequently Asked Questions

Requesting a Call Ahead allows you to set up a delivery appointment by having the carrier call you roughly 24 hours before the anticipated arrival of your product. Fees can apply. The transit time for your order may increase by one day if you do choose this option. The normal delivery window is 4 hours; however, depending on the carrier and shipment location, this may fluctuate.

For deliveries to residential and companies with specific hours, you can opt for "Call Before Delivery". Fees can apply.

If a delivery appointment is scheduled with the carrier, and you're unable to accept delivery, you will be liable for any re-delivery fees. In case you opt for a time-sensitive delivery or want to shorten the standard 4-hour timeframe, there will be extra charges.

Please be aware that we cannot divide an order to ship to several addresses. However, you can place multiple orders, each shipping to its own location.

You will require a liftgate and must choose this option at the time of purchase if you don't have access to a forklift or elevated loading dock to unload your items of purchase from the delivery truck. The cost of the liftgate is included in the "Common Carrier w/ Liftgate" option. If a liftgate needs to be added after an order has been delivered, a higher fee might be charged. A re-delivery cost may be charged in addition to the liftgate fee if delivery cannot be completed because a liftgate was not chosen at checkout. In certain cases, to save further carrier expenses, we will email you about the applicable fees and, if necessary, the card on file will be charged.

A truck-level loading dock will be necessary if an item is too big or heavy to fit via a lift gate, such as a large outdoor display merchandiser or walk-in freezers. You can get in touch with our Customer Service Team if you require assistance or have any further queries.

Cleaning routines should be tailored to the specific needs of each restaurant, but all restaurants should strive for daily cleanings to maintain high hygiene standards and customer satisfaction.

Proper cleaning of the kitchen and dining area, along with food preparation surfaces, cooking equipment, and utensils, is necessary to reduce the risk of contamination and prevent food-borne illnesses.

Common cleaning chemicals used in restaurants include chlorine, ammonia, and iodine. Chlorine sanitizes surfaces and kills bacteria, ammonia effectively breaks down grease and grime, and iodine kills germs on contact. It is important to note that these three chemicals are safe to use in food preparation areas when diluted properly.

Everyone in the restaurant is responsible, from the staff to management, for ensuring that the restaurant is clean and orderly. However, the cleaning staff is typically responsible for conducting a deep cleaning of the restaurant, such as mopping floors, washing dishes, and scrubbing surfaces.

A restaurant cleaning checklist should include areas that need to be cleaned regularly, such as floors, food contact surfaces, bathrooms, kitchens, and dining areas. In addition, it should also include instructions on how often each area needs to be cleaned and what products should be used for proper cleaning.

Restaurant managers must implement protocols and regular checklists to ensure their restaurant is always clean and hygienic. These include daily cleaning tasks, periodic deep cleaning, and staying on top of food safety regulations.

CKitchen cannot not guarantee modifications or additions to your order. However, please reach out to us at your earliest convenience and we will attempt to assist you.
