All deliveries are curbside.
Inspect
all product shipments and report any damages or shortages.
-
Inspect
all cartons and note any damage or possible concealed damage on the freight bill
prior to signing for receipt of or receiving the products. This will allow
you the chance to refuse the item(s) if damaged or defective. Should you not
have time to inspect; please sign the receipt as 'uninspected'' instead of your
signature. By applying your signature, you are signing a document stating that
you have inspected the item(s) and it (they) are in good condition. In this case,
the claim must be filed by you with the freight company as we will have no recourse
once an item(s) is/are signed for.
-
Should
the product shipment be signed for and no notes are made indicating any possible
or real damages, then the consumer of the product(s) becomes the legal owner
of the merchandise and Abovegroundpool.net, the seller, can no longer file a
damage claim with the freight carrier and therefore any damage(s) would be yours
to claim with the freight carrier, should any be realized.
-
Should
product shipment damage(s) be noted on the freight bill, be certain the delivery
driver signs the same receipt you do and you retain a copy of the signed documentation
for your records.

Abovegroundpool.net'
responsibility with respect to shipments made by common carrier ends with the
issues of the bill of lading.
All
shipments are scheduled for residential delivery;
however we will not pay for, be responsible for or reimburse for any additional
residential delivery fees in which a truck with a lift gate is or has been requested
by the receiver. Shipments which arrive by common carrier are to be unloaded
by the receiver. (Concerning Pool Shipments: It is possible to remove any
banding or securing measures from the shipment and unload the components one
at a time.)
WE RECOMMEND
NOT SCHEDULING any installation or assembly of the purchased product until
the shipment has been inspected and/or the order fully and completely received
in good condition.
An order
which is picked up by the purchaser and/or agent of the purchaser; such shall
receive the product as being received in new condition and any possible transit
damage, freight charges, port charges, vat chartes, duty, etc. is the sole responsibility
of the purchaser.
"FREE
SHIPPING
" is based upon our already having the estimated shipping
delivery costs which would be directerd at us, adjusted into the sale price of
the product. It does not imply in any way, that we are not charged for
shipping products. In no way is shipping; free, as we do have an estimated
amount of shipping costs built into the sales price of the product. Which
is why we can wholeheartedly say, "The Price You See is the Price You
Pay". Any/All
returns or refunds of products/goods purchased from propools.com are subject
to a possible deduction of the estimated shipping amount which had been
adjusted into said product at the time of the sale.
Above Ground
Pool shipments should arrive at your location as similarily depicted in the
photograph below.
