Part 4 - Receiving
4.1 Inspection at Time of Delivery
Great care has been taken to pack the battery for shipment to ensure its safe arrival. As soon as you
receive the battery, check the packing material for evidence of damage in transit. If the packing material is
physically damaged or wet acid stains are present, make a notation on the delivery receipt before you
accept the shipment/delivery.
Verify the number of cartons and skids against the bill of lading and verify their contents against the
packing lists. Keep a copy of the verified lists for your installation records. It is important to confirm that
the accessory package is present and the quantities are correct. If help is required, call C&D customer
service department to report any discrepancies.
4.2 Damage and Shortage Situations
C&D ships FOB Pharr, TX (zip code 78577) (title/ownership passes to the ship-to/end user at the Pharr, TX
warehouse). If shipments are damaged or if cartons or skids are damaged or missing, a claim must be filed
with the carrier. Place an immediate order for replacement with C&D. Pay both the original invoice and the
replacement invoice using the replacement cost as the amount of freight damages or shortages involved as
part of your claim. If individual component items are missing, a shortage report should be filed within
30-days from the date of receiving a shipment with the C&D customer service department. Mail
(express mail recommended), e-mail [email protected], call 1-800-543-8630 or fax a copy of the
VERIFIED component-packing list. This verified list should show both the name of the packer, as well as
the quantities of items checked off by the receiver.
NOTE:
Freight carriers generally require that the carriers’ representative inspect
concealed damage within 15 days from date of delivery to determine responsibility.
The resolution of such claims may extend up to nine months.
