Shipping/Freight Damage Policy   
It is important that you inspect your shipment thoroughly before accepting and signing for your merchandise; after you sign for the merchandise you are responsible for filing all claims with the shipper. Do not assume that your product is not damaged just because the box and packaging is intact. You must check for both internal and external damage before you accept delivery. If you notice your product is damaged, refuse the package and note the damage on the bill of lading. Please call our customer service department immediately at 800-704-0372 and inform us of the damage. After you sign for the package you are responsible for all freight damages.

Obvious or Concealed Freight Damage
If you receive a shipment from an order that you placed with Machen Supply with obvious or concealed freight damage, refuse the shipment and note the damage on the bill of lading. We will then order and ship a replacement for you. We will charge you for the replacement at the originally quoted price and credit you upon the return of the original. If you sign for the shipment without reporting any damage you are responsible for all damages and must make any claims with the shipper.
If you fail to report concealed or obvious freight damage to the carrier prior to signing for the shipment, neither you or we have any recourse.
