Shipping Policy
Shipping and handling charges are
usually 15% -
but right now it's half off, at only 7.5% for most orders.
We ship worldwide. We can deliver
to any freight forwarder in the continental U.S. The customer is
responsible for all shipping, packing, customs and duty charges.
If you don't have a freight forward company, we can help you get
one.
Your order will be coming to you
directly from the factory. It will be necessary for you or your
representative to be on site at the time of the delivery to help
unload the truck. Most companies call before arriving to arrange
a day and time for delivery.
Large shipments may be delivered on pallets. A forklift is generally
used to offload large shipments, but the pallets can be broken open
to be offloaded by hand. Most residential deliveries will need to
be offloaded by hand. The driver is only responsible to get the
order to the end of the truck. It is the recipients responsibility
to remove it. This only applies to Common Carrier deliveries, not
UPS, FedEX, etc.
The factory loads the truck with the correct items and then it is
the trucking company's responsibility to get it to you in good condition.
Any shortage or damage must be noted on the bill of lading at the
time of delivery. If damage is found after the driver has left,
the trucking company must be notified and a claim filed. Make all
claims promptly. Frequently an inspector will be sent out to see
the damage or to note a shortage. It is the customer's responsibility
to seek reimbursement from the trucking company for any damages
or shortages. A Vinyl Fence Company will help in any way we can.
The trucking company will provide the appropriate forms for filing
a claim.
Replacement orders should be placed promptly with A Vinyl Fence
Company so installation of your fence can proceed as scheduled.
Call A Vinyl Fence Company before returning any items. You may incur
a 25% restocking fee plus the cost of shipping both ways if a return
is not authorized.
If material is returned for credit,
it is the responsibility of the customer to package the material
securely and safely. If the material is damaged, it will not be
accepted by the manufacturer and no credit will be issued.
