RECEIPT OF PRODUCT
Domica Furniture highly recommends using a qualified receiving warehouse to receive, inspect, consolidate deliveries and facilitate in-home installation. Domica Furniture will recommend a receiver for client if needed. All crated goods must go through a professional receiver such as a receiving warehouse. A receiving warehouse acts as an agent for the client and is responsible to note any damage and assist the owner with filing a freight claim when any damage is found. A signature on the BOL upon receipt of the product confirms that the products are received in good condition unless exception is made on the BOL.
Prior to placing an order, Purchaser must verify that merchandise is capable of being delivered to the designated destination (e.g., will fit in elevator, upstairs, around corners, etc.) Merchandise will not be accepted for return for failure to verify moving dimensions.
TITLE / RISK OF LOSS
Title to merchandise passes to Purchaser upon Domica Furniture delivery to freight carrier (unless otherwise specified). Domica Furniture is not responsible for damage after the merchandise has been accepted in good order by the shipping company and is not responsible for damage sustained in transit. If damage is noticed when unpacking, notify the delivery company immediately for inspection including photographs of the damages. All visible damage should be noted by the recipient on the freight bill before it is signed by the recipient and the delivery company is possible. If the driver must “drop and dash”, the receiver should note on the BOL that any concealed damage of boxes or crated products will be the responsibility of the carrier or the manufacturer as determined upon inspection of the product. Full inspection must occur within 48 hours of delivery and all freight claims filed within 72 hours. Do not destroy packing materials until they are inspected. Take photos of any damage to the packaging, this is necessary to resolve damage claims. Claims for such damage or loss must be made by the Purchaser/Receiver directly to the freight carrier in accordance with the Interstate Commerce Commission. Goods damaged in freight cannot be refused by the consignee. Such obvious or subsequently discovered damage must be reported in writing to the carrier in accordance with the applicable regulations and time limits. If merchandise is returned without you first having contacted the shipping company for inspection, no claim can be filed. Shipments returned to Domica Furniture’s workshop without Domica Furniture’s consent in writing will be refused and either re-delivered or stored at Customer’s expense.
