Should you notice a defect to the outer packaging you must evaluate if the product itself has been damaged, if the product itself is damaged you should not sign for it. You must email us at support@showersealsdirect.co.uk within 7 days that the delivery was damaged from due to shipping.

If only the packaging is damaged, the goods are not damaged/faulty and you are happy to accept the delivery please sign the delivery document as “Damaged Shipment’

If you sign for the goods, even if you write the words “Unchecked” or similar on the delivery note, then you are accepting that the goods arrived without obvious external damage to the packaging and later claims for carrier damage will not be considered. If the driver refuses to wait while you check the goods then you must refuse to accept the delivery.

The delivery (by courier) will be made between 9.00am & 6.00pm Monday to Friday. The standard postal deliveries will be subject to local postal services.

When asking someone else to sign for the goods on your behalf, it is your responsibility to make sure that the goods must be inspected. Therefore we will not be held responsible for any damage (or loss) if they sign on your behalf and fail to inspect.
