What is a Freight Delivery?
Freight is delivered by Common Carrier to you, the consignee, at your business or home. Freight charges are figured from dock to dock or in residential deliveries to a curbside. Deliveries are made by a single driver usually in a tractor pulling a 28′ trailer. If the tractor and trailer are not able to make it to your business or residence due to weight restrictions, low hanging trees, narrow driveways or any other reason that is not the fault of the truck line, it is the responsibility of the Consignee to make arrangements to receive the shipment at a location agreed upon by the truck line and the Consignee or to pick up the freight at the local terminal. It is required that an adult be on hand to sign the delivery receipt and note any exceptions as indicated below. Any additional services requested by the consignee at the time of delivery are the responsibility of the consignee and not NW Immersion Co. These additional services include but are not limited to: (1) Inside delivery, (2) lift gate delivery, unless purchased, (3) call before delivery, 24-hour notice, or appointments, and (4) Change of Delivery Address. It is the responsibility of the consignee to inform NW Immersion Co of any problems that might occur prior to delivery. Freight charges are only figured by zip code, and it is not possible for NW Immersion Co to anticipate delivery problems without the assistance of the consignee.
What do I do when the shipment arrives?
When receiving your shipment, it is important to do the following. Count all pieces of your freight. Even if your shipment arrives on a pallet there should be a piece count on the bill. Ensure that all pieces are accounted for. Check the shipment for any visible damage to containers. If the boxes are dented, crushed, scratched, punctured, or cut it is very important to mark this on the bill of lading. If there is a possibility of damage it may be necessary to open the box and mark the actual damage on the bill of lading. It is important to be specific. Boxes that have been dropped may not show obvious signs of external damage, so it is a good idea to check the heater and door boxes very carefully. You may want to open these boxes before the driver leaves to ensure that the contents do not have concealed damage. (It is the driver’s right to not allow any boxes to be opened prior to signing for and accepting the shipment). Any damage not noted or reported after signing may result in the inability to file a claim or have a replacement provided.
What do I do if my shipment arrives visibly damaged?
Any external evidence of loss or damage that occurred during transit is considered visible loss or damage and must be noted on the bill of lading and signed by the carrier’s agent (driver). Failure to adequately describe the visible loss or damage could result in the carrier delaying or refusing to honor the freight claim. If the shipment is damaged and unusable, it may be necessary to refuse part or all of the order. Call NW Immersion Co before refusing any shipment. Email info@nwimmersion.com immediately with pictures of damaged goods. We will forward to Wholesaler who will work with you directly. Do not attempt to return a damaged shipment (or any shipment) to NW Immersion Co without prior authorization.
What do I do if my shipment has internal damages the packing did not show?
Any damage that occurred during transit that was not visible at the time of delivery is considered concealed loss or damage. Due to rough handling in transit it is possible to damage the contents of a container without damaging the container. If such a situation occurs it is important to contact NW Immersion Co immediately for instructions as to how to handle the claim. If a claim is to be filed, it is important to save the container that the damaged merchandise arrived in. Take pictures of all damaged merchandise and shipping containers and email to info@nwimmersion.com so that we can forward to wholesaler who will work with you directly.
