Large Item Shopping (freight line delivery) 1. Sewing Stands, Cutting Tables, Cabinets and Industrial Sewing Machines are shipped either by via truck line, or UPS or Freight lines,depending on your selection. Someone needs to be at home to receive and sign for the product/s when delivery takes place. Most truck lines will call you to arrange date for delivery. 2. Provide as many phone numbers as possible to ensure that the shipping company can contact you and let you know what time and date your product/s will be delivered. You also can use your Tracking Number to track your order(s). 3. The delivery driver is not responsible for bringing the product inside your home, up or down any stairs or into any particular room. Their responsibility is to deliver the product/s to the delivery address and unload the product/s from their trailer. The driver's responsibility does vary from state to state. It is always a good idea to have someone there to help you unload your product/s. 4. Always inspect your shipment BEFORE signing for it, only if it is possible, by Shipping company and delivery personal. It is best to completely remove your shipment from its containers regardless of the condition of the box. Inspect it thoroughly, assemble the product:(if possible), and if it is damaged make a note of the damage on the delivery receipt or repackage and decline delivery. When you sign the delivery receipt, it is a legal contract that states that you accepted the product in the condition that it was delivered. If opening or assembling is not possible at the time delivery is received, it is best to indicate "possible concealed damage" regardless of the condition of the box/es. This is important because once you have signed for your shipment it is your responsibility if it is damaged. 5. Save your box/es and all packaging materials until you are fully satisfied that your product/s and all accessories are satisfactory. A good practice is to compact the box/es and put them in your garage, attic or storage room. Attempting a return to the manufacturer for repair/replacement is nearly impossible without the proper box/es. 6. Inserts for home sewing cabinets are usually shipped out via UPS or Fed-Ex, and customarily do not arrive at the same time as your cabinet product/s. Delivery on home machinery inserts can take up to a few additional weeks to provide for the time it takes to create your insert to fit your machine/s. 7. Replacement of damaged product/s will occur when funds are received from the shipping company after the claim/s have been filed properly. Normal claim time is 4 to 6 weeks from the date claim/s were made. 8. UPS, Fed-Ex or Any Freight Line Does NOT ship to PO Boxes !
