Truck delivery (non-standard pallet delivery)

In order to recognize freight damages and claims the insurance companies want any damages to be very well recorded immediately on receiving the goods. It means:

1. Make a record of all the damages on the delivery report
2. Make a detailed record of all the damages with the driver (with his signature and/or stamp)
3. Take pictures of the damaged goods
4. Take pictures of the damaged packaging (before unpacking the goods)
5. Take pictures of the damaged goods after unpacking

Please avoid records like “damaged goods, still undamaged packaging” or “delivered in the original undamaged packaging”, etc.

Paper invoices are not sent with the goods (except for non-EU countries). A copy can always be requested by e-mail. Usually invoices are issued right after we get the order.
