Freight, delivery, and other transportation charges are considered part of the selling price. If the sale is taxable, the freight, delivery, and other transportation charges that are part of the sale and billed by the seller are taxable. If the product being delivered is exempt from sales tax, then freight, delivery, and other transportation charges are also exempt. Delivery charges billed directly to the customer by delivery services that are not making the sale of tangible personal property remain exempt from sales and use tax.
