Damaged Goods
We provide great care in packaging and shipping our products out
to you, our valued customers. We have less than 1% return rate for damaged goods and
everything we ship is in excellent condition when it leaves our facility however sometimes
when shipping products via different carriers such as UPS or motor freight, some packages
may get damaged while in transit. In the event you should receive any product from
us damaged, you should do the following:
1. Do not accept delivery of the product(s) and notify the
carrier (such as UPS or motor freight) at the time of the attempted delivery that the
product or package was damaged. The product would then be shipped back to us
from the carrier and a claim would be made by us to the carrier for the damaged products.
In the meantime, we would promptly re-ship you a new product(s).
2. Contact us immediately via email and notify us that the
package was received damaged and you refused the delivery. The package would then be
sent back to us from the carrier and we would file a claim with the carrier. In the
meantime, we would promptly ship you a new product(s).
Deliveries made by motor freight (such as USF Holland, Yellow
Freight, Roadway, etc.) require a signature from the party receiving the order. The
signature indicates that you received the product or package in good condition and the
product or package was not damaged. This signature indicates your responsibility
that you inspected the material and that it was received in good condition. Motor
freight companies nor our company will be held liable after this point. As
always, read before you sign.
Deliveries made by UPS or Federal Express often times do not
require a signature. Notification of the damaged product(s) must be made by email to
our company within 2 business days or on the same day to the carrier. Claims made
after this point will not be received and it will be your responsibility to handle the
claim with the carrier.
Rarely a product may be shipped from us that is damaged with no
outward appearance of damage to the box. This most likely indicates that the product
was damaged from the manufacturer while it was being made and packaged before we received
it. In this case, claims for damaged products inside what appears to be an undamaged
box or packaging, must be made within 7 days after receipt of the product(s).
In any event you should receive any product damaged, please
contact ASAP by email. Include how the package was received, how you opened the
package, when you noticed the damage, and on what date you received and discovered the
damage. Any additional information is helpful in order to process the claim.
