Damaged Items:

In the unlikely event that there are damaged items to your order, please take a couple of digital pictures and email them.  Although rare, damage may occur during shipping.  People are human and accidents do happen from time to time.  All damages are the responsibility of the trucking company and not Great Fence.  Therefore, customer is responsible for inspecting signing for all ground freight shipments.  It is best that this is you or someone who can act for you.  Do not sign the bill of lading without noting on it any damages and have the delivery driver sign it as well. It is best to inspect the contents of each package, but, at a minimum, sign the Bill of Lading as “No Visible Damage”. This will ensure that you can then place a claim with the responsible trucking company, if necessary.  If you sign a “clean” bill of lading, you will not be able to get reimbursed by the trucking company and will be required to purchase replacement parts.  In the case of damage, call the terminal number listed on the bill of lading immediately to start your claim.  Be sure to keep any damaged materials for inspection by the trucking company as they may not honor claims if there is no proof of damage.  It is the customer’s responsibility to initiate all claims promptly.  Most carriers will not consider claims after 6-9 months from the date of delivery.
