FREIGHT CLAIMS
Even though we take every precaution to ensure your order arrives with no damage, we cannot control events that may take place in
transit. It is the responsibility of the party receiving the shipment to inspect it for signs of damage before signing the bill of lading.
Signing the bill of lading releases the carrier and Seating Inc. from any responsibility for damages occurring during transit.
CAUTION: After obtaining a clear receipt for shipment, the delivering carrier is no longer responsible for damage or shortages. It is your
responsibility to report any shortages or outward damages on the bill of lading. You protect yourself by refusing shipments showing
damage or shortage until transportation carrier has noted on the delivery sheet the extent of the damage or shortage.
In the event of “hidden damage” it is the responsibility of the party receiving the shipment to contact Seating Inc. immediately. Damage
to contents must be reported within 2 days from the date of delivery. If at all possible, please take pictures of the damage. All merchandise
should be retained in the original shipping container, in the same condition it was in when loss or damage was discovered.
If you experience concealed damage:
1. Call Seating Inc. to report the damage immediately. Then write an affidavit giving date damaged
product was received and the
damage incurred. If possible take pictures of the damage.
2. Retain all merchandise in the original container.
3. Contact Seating Inc.’s shipping department (800.468.2475) to advise them of the damage situation
and be prepared to provide
detailed order and product information.
4. Send a copy of your affidavit to Seating Inc. and any pictures, if available. It will be the responsibility
of Seating Inc. to file a cargo claim
within prescribed time limits and to respond to any requests from
the carrier for supporting documentation. The damaged product must
be retained until the claim is
resolved, or until the claimant is given disposition by the carrier.
