Order Inspection & Verification
Before signing for a package or freight shipment, it is the Consignee’s responsibility to inspect the delivery
for visible signs of damage.

Look for:​

Torn or punctured cardboard
Broken pallet
Broken or crushed corners

Count boxes and verify that the packing list matches the items received in the shipment.

If you suspect hidden damage, open packages immediately!​

 

If damage is found:

  • Note all visible damages on the Delivery Receipt and inform the Driver.
    If damage is not reported on the delivery receipt and brought to the driver’s attention, the carrier may not honor the damage claim.

  • If the Driver is willing to wait, open the shipment and inspect items. Note any internal damage on Delivery Receipt and inform the Driver. If the Driver is not willing to wait, please note that on the Delivery Receipt before the Driver leaves.

  • Photograph damaged product and packaging.

  • Email copies of the signed delivery receipt, damage photos and a detailed description of damages to Shipping@BrinkAlert.com.

  • It is important that you retain the damaged product and packaging until the claims process has been completed. We will discuss with you how to handle the damaged items.

  • All damages or shortages must be reported to the carrier and to BrinkAlert within 3 days of delivery. All sales are final after 5 days.


If overage or shortage is found:

  • Immediately report any discrepancies between your Packing List and the contents of your shipment to Shipping@BrinkAlert.com. A customer service representative will contact you with further instructions.

  • Note: Unshipped items will not appear on the Packing List and will automatically be shipped
    to the address on the order as soon as product becomes available. It is not necessary to
    submit a Claim.
