Exceptions to the stated minimum lead times may be granted on a case-by-case basis.
Note: Shipments compete for loading spots and truck availability. Therefore, placing your order as far in advance as possible helps to ensure specific loading times and the carrier and Terminal to plan coverage for the shipment.
Railcars are only available from our Tulsa Refinery. When applicable, emergency orders (orders to be executed in less than standard lead time or outside of normal operating hours) will be charged a minimum of $350.00 or HollyFrontier’s incurred costs, whichever is greater. This charge will be applied at the time of order placement and customers will be made aware of the surcharge prior to the order being entered into the order management system.
Requests to change product quantities on an order that has already been entered into the order management system will be handled based on the individual order in question. The Customer Service Specialist will take all required information, confer with the facility and advise customer within two hours if the changes can be accepted. If the change pertains to a Blend-to-Order product, which has already been blended, no changes will be accepted. If an order needs to be cancelled, please note that added costs directly related to the cancellation will be the responsibility of the customer. The complete order will be subject to the full lead-time from the time the request is made.
