Tools & Home Improvement category schedule

This schedule applies to your products in Tools & Home Improvement and forms part of your Master Seller Services Agreement. It covers: hand tools, power tools, hardware, garden tools, paint and decorating supplies, and fittings.

It does not cover: pesticides and restricted chemicals unless approved, explosives and fireworks, and gas cylinders. These are not allowed unless Searchbox has given written approval after a separate review.

Before a buyer orders, each listing must show:

• Specifications, power rating, voltage and safety features.
• What is included, and any training or protective equipment needed.
• For chemicals and paint: safety data, hazards and storage.

• Electrical fittings, cables, switches and similar products must carry the compulsory SLS mark where required.
• Construction materials such as cement, steel and PVC pipes must meet the compulsory SLS standards where required.
• You must hold any licence, registration or approval the law requires for what you sell and keep it up to date. Searchbox may ask to see it.

Bulky or hazardous goods may need special delivery; say so before ordering.

Tell Searchbox before you start selling a materially different type of product in this category, and immediately if a product is recalled, found unsafe or the subject of a regulator's request. Stop selling it, help contact affected buyers and keep records of what you sold. If a product also falls under another category's rules, those rules apply as well.
