We Can Help! The best practice with these items is to order them in bulk with aluminum signs or blanks to ensure the best freight price and to decrease the likelihood of damage. CPC has great relationships with several freight companies and can ship signs all over the U.S. at reasonable prices.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR RECEIVING/INSPECTION OF ORDERS

Receiving/Inspection: Based upon your companies receiving policies there are two ways of handling damaged shipments depending on if the shipment was documented or un-documented.

• Documented: Upon delivery, check merchandise for quantity and carrier damage. Any problems must be noted on carrier delivery receipt. Notify Custom Products immediately of any problems and provide images of the pallets/merchandise as received by the carrier. UPS DELIVERIES: If a package from UPS is damaged instead of signing your name it should be signed “DAMAGED”. This helps CPC to file a claim with UPS. Otherwise, they will not pay a claim. CPC will replace your items at no charge and file the claim with the carriers.
• Un-documented: If the damages were not noted on the BOL and pictures taken of all damages or if there is damage found after delivery, contact the carrier and request an inspection report. Claims for un-documented damaged goods must be filed with the carrier. CPC will not be responsible for such claims. Claims for lost items will be resolved by scale tickets printed at the CPC dock site. If the printed tickets show that the proper weight of items left the CPC docks, then a claim must be filed with the carrier. If the tickets show that the proper weight of items did not leave the CPC docks then the claim will be filed with CPC.

Tip #1 : Take pictures of damaged pallets/products, as they are received, for claims with the carrier.

Tip #2 : Orders shipped via LTL leave the Custom Products Corporation (CPC) dock with orange tags across the banding. If your shipment arrives with damaged or missing orange tags, please inspect your shipment before signing the (BOL) Bill of Lading.
