SHIPPING & RETURN POLICY
All packages from CLIAwaived, Inc. are shipped "FOB origin" or "FOB shipping point." CLIAwaived, Inc. considers all sales complete at our shipping dock, and thus the buyer of the goods is responsible for freight costs and liability during transport.
Any lost packages shipped by USPS cannot be replaced by CLIAwaived, Inc. We highly recommend using a common carrier. CLIAwaived, Inc. will only file claims for lost, mis-sorted, or undelivered packages when shipped using our common carrier account (UPS, DHL, or FedEx). If the customer is using their own common carrier account, the customer is responsible for filing the claim. If a claim is denied by the common carrier, the risk of loss remains the responsibility of the customer.
All goods except perishable items are shipped to arrive Monday through Friday. If your business is closed, packages will be delivered the next business day. Refrigerated items ship Monday through Thursday. If your office will be closed during certain hours or days, you should make alternative delivery arrangements with our preferred carrier, UPS. CLIAwaived, Inc. will not refund refused deliveries or packages that become undeliverable after repeated attempts.
All shipping issues, including overage, shortage, loss, damage, and other discrepancies between the quantity and/or condition of supplies received, must be reported within two (2) business days of receipt from the commercial carrier.
