PLEASE NOTE: 


Enlighten

IMPORTANT: PLEASE REVIEW THIS ENTIRE DOCUMENT BEFORE
RECEIVING YOUR SHIPMENT. IF YOUR SHIPMENT ARRIVES OFF THE PALLET: DO NOT SIGN FOR THE UNIT WITHOUT THOROUGHLY INSPECTING THE CONTENTS OF EACH DELIVERED BOX.

Please kindly ask the driver to wait for you to ensure that your unit has arrived in good condition. We strongly encourage you to open each delivered box and carefully inspect the contents inside BEFORE signing the delivery receipt (Proof of Delivery). By performing this task immediately, you are not only helping us to more quickly determine wether your unit arrived damaged or undamaged, but it also protects you against any possible product liability claims.

NOTE: Once you sign the delivery receipt, you are certifying that your unit arrived in good condition and that both, the shipper(Enlighten Sauna) and the freight company are free of any liability.


Take Pictures

A still camera or the camera on your phone can be extremely helpful in documenting the shipment’s condition upon arrival. Please take pictures of ALL damages. Carefully check for damage to glass panels, electrical components, wooden components, accessories, etc. Take pictures of each side of the damaged box(es) and items. Please be sure to not misplace any inventoried item.

Have The Driver Write “DAMAGED” With Their Initials

The freight company will not knowingly ship any items that are damaged. The freight company routinely inspects every box before accepting any items to be shipped. Consequently, you should NOT sign any courier receipt which transfers product liability over to you, until you have inspected the shipment’s contents. If there is damage, please kindly ask the driver to write ‘damaged’ with their initials next to it on the proof of delivery form. This step is essential to document that you have received a non-functioning component in damaged shipment.

If The Driver Refuses To Wait

If the driver is in a rush and says he cannot wait for you to inspect your shipment thoroughly, initiate a quick visual examination of the boxes’ exterior condition. Any visible signs of possible damage to your shipment please proceed to ask the driver for initials and ‘damaged’ written on receipt.

NOTE: If there is any damage to the pallet(skid) there is a possibility that contents laying against the pallet(the bottom) have been damaged. In this case, please take pictures of the pallet and the boxes upon arrival.


NOTE: PLEASE NEVER WRITE/CHECK OFF: "SUBJECT TO INSPECTION”, “NO VISIBLE DAMAGE”, “DAMAGE TO CRATE/PACKAGING” or “POSSIBLE DAMAGE” ON THE PROOF OF DELIVERY.

The freight company will not accept a damage claim if any of these phrases are written/checked off on the p.o.d form. If you see any damages on the shipment, simply write ‘DAMAGED’ followed up by more detailed information. Ex: “Damaged - hole in cardboard box can hear broken glass rattling.”


All Damages Must Be Reported Within 72 Hours

We strongly advise you to promptly check for any damages shortly after the driver leaves. Please DO NOT wait a long period of time to open up your packages as you are only allowed 72 hours after delivery to report any damages to us. The freight company and the shipper CANNOT be held liable for any damages if they are reported after this period of time.


Keep All Original Packaging

If you do submit a damage report, during the 72 hours period, we advise you to keep all original packaging. Once the damage claim is forwarded to the freight company, an inspector will be sent out to personally examine the damages, in order to process the claim properly. If inspector is unable to examine your shipment, the freight company will not claim any liability because it cannot be proven that they are responsible for any damages.

Do Not Move Damaged Packaging

Once the claim is settled, it is very important that you do NOT move any damaged packaging to a different location. The freight company and the shipper cannot be held liable for any damages if the unit is moved to a different location after it has been certified to have been delivered in good condition to the correct address.

Create An Inventory List


Create an inventory list of damaged items to ensure an accurate replacement (please include images if possible). This helps us expedite your claim and send replacement parts in a timely manner.

PLEASE NOTE: We provide free delivery to the nearest point of entry. Any additional requests made by the customer (i.e bring sauna inside/further in, etc..) will be billed by FedEx and Healingsaunaconnection.com will not be responsible for those charges.

LTL Shipping Options Are As Follows:

Curbside delivery is our standard delivery method and is free for all freight orders. Important: The customer must be available to receive the delivery or fees will incur. Driver will offload the freight to the curb at the end of your driveway. Drivers do not bring freight into house, garage, backyard, etc. Due to this being a curbside delivery, the customer is responsible for moving the product after the initial unloading. It is also the customer’s responsibility to inspect the product to check for damages and missing parts. If the customer does not reject the delivery after assessing the product, the customer is then responsible for noting any damage or missing parts on the shipping bill. Curbside delivery does not include any additional services such as setting the product in place, unpacking, plugging in, installation or debris removal. For an additional cost, customers may request a second person to assist with unloading.

Golden Design

Important information regarding the delivery, assembly, and usage of your sauna.

Your sauna will ship out of our warehouse within the next 2 business days. You will be receiving the tracking information once the sauna leaves our warehouse.

You will be receiving a phone call from the freight carrier to set a delivery day and time 24 to 48 hours prior to delivery. Delivery is normally within a 4 hour window and every effort will be made to ensure any delivery issues (remote areas, long driveways, large and low hanging trees, apartment complex, stairs, etc.) should be addressed with us prior to shipping.

The sauna will be delivered in 1 box for 1-2 person models or multiple boxes for larger units. All boxes will be strapped vertically to a pallet. Our saunas are delivered in a 53ft semi-truck. The single driver will unload the pallet ONLY to your curbside or end of your driveway.

Once the driver has unloaded the pallet, we ask that you immediately inspect the box(s) for any damage. Please indicate any minor scratches, indentations, or scuff marks on the delivery receipt. You do not need to open the boxes to inspect the sauna. Refuse delivery if you should see a large hole anywhere (most likely damage made by freight carrier forklifts).

If you have any questions regarding the delivery process, assembly, or general questions on how to get the most from your sauna experience, please contact our Customer Service at 1-877-859-2550 or support@healingsaunaconnection.com.
