When Shipping Via Truck Freight or Common Carrier:
Machinery and some very large orders may be delivered by a large (18-wheeler, in most cases) truck. The truck must be able to access the place of delivery. All our shipments are carefully wrapped (and strapped to a skid, if necessary), for added protection.
Please inspect all packages upon delivery. Any damages or shortages MUST be noted on the bill of lading at the time of delivery. Please make sure to retain a signed copy for yourself.
By US commerce law, all damages are the responsibility of the consumer once a delivery is signed for. We will assist as fully as we can. Charges may apply if the customer is not present when delivery is attempted. Lift gate service means the freight is simply lowered to the ground. It is the customer’s responsibility to move it from there. Arrangement for a lift gate delivery may involve an extra day or two shipping time.
**A suggestion for residential deliveries: often we can arrange for you to pick up your shipment from the local terminal of a freight company. So, consider borrowing a truck or trailer or recruiting a friend/relative that has one.
Packaging Material:
In order to ensure your item arrives in the best condition possible and to avoid any possible shipping damage, some products may be opened by us before shipped out to you in order to add extra packing material. We open it only to assure your order arrives in the same condition as it was when shipped to us.
