Shipping, Handling and Returns
PLEASE NOTE: You must check the shipment prior to accepting delivery. Do not let the driver make you sign for the shipment without opening and inspecting. Even if the shipment looks pristine, remove the packaging and check the contents prior to signing for the delivery. Neither Kendon, nor the freight company, can be held liable for damages AFTER you have signed for the shipment. If you receive a shipment without noting the damage with the freight company, we will help file a claim but any outcome is subject to the decision of the freight carrier.
BY SIGNING THE BILL OF LADING (SHIPPING DOCUMENTS) YOU AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
- All Kendon trailers and lifts are wrapped in Blue shrink wrap. (See Image to the Right)
If you see any other color wrap do not accept shipment and immediately stop and contact Kendon.
- If the Bill of Lading is signed by the recipient prior to inspection, or after inspection that failed to observe and note damage and/or missing parts or accessories, NO CLAIMS will be accepted by the Freight Carrier or Kendon Worldwide Inc.
- All damage to trailers, lifts and/or missing parts or accessories must be NOTED IN WRITING on the Bill of Lading.
- In addition, all claims for damage to trailers, lifts and/or accessories, or for missing parts must be made directly against the Freight Carrier, in writing, within two (2) business days from receipt of goods.

* All products are shipped FOB (Freight On Board) Anaheim, California. Kendon does not guarantee shipping and/or transit times. Residential deliveries, where possible, are curb-side-only. Due to the large size and height of Kendon trailers, Kendon cannot guarantee that a trailer can be shipped and delivered to all business and residential locations throughout the United States. Due to equipment and area limitations, residential deliveries with a lift gate cannot be guaranteed to all locations. If that is the case a trucking terminal pick up will be required. If unsure, please contact Kendon for a freight quote and to verify that a trailer can be delivered to your location. Kendon does not accept returns without an RGA (Return Goods Authorization) number. Customer is responsible for return freight. Returns may be subject to 25% restocking fee.
