BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Receiving:
The shipment should be thoroughly inspected as soon as it is
received. The signed bill of lading is acknowledgement by the
carrier of receipt in good condition of shipment covered by
your invoice. If any of the goods called for on this bill of lading
are shorted or damaged, do not accept them until the carrier
makes a notation on the freight bill of the shorted or damaged
goods. Do this for your own protection.
NOTIFY THE CARRIER AT ONCE
if any hidden loss or
damage is discovered after receipt and request the carrier
to make an inspection. If the carrier will not do so, prepare
a signed statement to the effect that you have notified the
carrier (on a specific date) and that the carrier has failed to
comply with your request.
IT IS DIFFICULT TO COLLECT FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE
AFTER YOU HAVE GIVEN THE CARRIER A CLEAR
RECEIPT.
File your claim with the carrier promptly. Support
your claim with copies of the bill of lading, freight bill, invoice,
and photographs, if available. Our willingness to assist in
helping you process your claim does not make BendPak
responsible for collection of claims or replacement of lost or
damaged materials.
