Please make arrangements to have help moving larger items into your residence, drivers are usually alone and do not uncrate items. Check the Bill of Lading and verify that the quantity of packages delivered agrees with what the BOL indicates left the factory. You may have to open the cartons, in the case of motor freight, to look for transit damage. Please do not sign the Bill of Lading until you are sure the merchandise has been delivered in good condition. If damage is acceptable/fixable - note damage to packaging and items on the delivery receipt. If the merchandise is unacceptably damaged, PLEASE refuse the shipment and call us at 406-857-3525 or e-mail info@lodgecraft.com. If the driver is unwilling to wait for a full inspection, please make note of it on the BOL. For example write on the BOL "Driver is unwilling to wait for a full inspection, there is no seen damage". This may help protect against unseen damage. Although damage claims are rare, they can happen and your products are fully insured against freight damage.
