  - Shipping and handling charges are not refundable. All returns must be in resalable condition.
• COMMON CARRIER FREIGHT TRUCK (large orders or materials over 8’ in length outside of our 100 mile radius)
  The following should be considered when receiving a Freight Delivery:
  - Truck drivers are subject to a number of regulations, one of which is that they are not required to give assistance unloading. Please be prepared for this “curbside” delivery, as you are responsible for unloading the item(s) and placing them in your shop or home.
  - Some terminals have other delivery services available, such as lift gate service, for an additional cost. These services vary from terminal to terminal, so remember to ask the trucking company when they call to make delivery arrangements. You are responsible for these additional costs.
  - SHIPPING DAMAGE: We have great service from the trucking companies we deal with, however, sometimes shipping damage can occur. It is extremely important to inspect and note any damage that might be suspect on the Bill of Lading (BOL) when signing for the shipment. Damage to the packaging container or material if it has become exposed should be noted on the form the driver gives you to sign accepting delivery. These notations will allow us to make a claim for shipping damage on your behalf. Failure to do so makes it extremely difficult to make a claim. If there is shipping damage and you have noted it on the delivery form, call us at 1-800-732-1697, and we will help you get the problem resolved.
