Orders, Ship and Returns Refrigerators, Freezers, and Gas Powered Restaurant Equipment

How long will it take for my restaurant equipment order to arrive? Most Atosa commercial refrigerators, freezers, and gas powered equipment ships in one business day and takes 1-2 business days to reach it's destination. All other brands take between 3-5 days to be received.

How will my order arrive? All equipment will ship from our warehouse or the manufacturer via a freight carrier using Liftgate delivery. The driver will safely have the order lowered to the parking lot and do a curbside/door delivery. Moving of the unit from the curbside/door into the facility is the responsibility of the buyer. Small wares will be delivered via FedEx, USPS or UPS ground unless otherwise specified.

What if my order arrives damaged? Despite how well products are packaged damage and loss can occur. As the purchaser, it is your responsibility to do the following:

• Verify the shipment matches the freight carrier's documentation
• Visually inspect the packaging for damage and identify any damage on the freight carriers documentation
• Uncrate or unpackage the order and complete a full inspection for damage. If the drive refuses to remain on site for a full inspect, note this on the freight carriers documentation.
• If concealed damage is discovered after the item has been signed for in good condition, We will no longer be liable.

Please note that every manufacturer has a different system for how you receive your order. Below is the details for each manufacturer.

Atosa covers concealed damage so you can simply receive it.

True Refrigeration - Please inspect the outside of the packaging thoroughly for all True Refrigeration orders. Most times when concealed damage is found and they will request images of the packaging you can see the evidence of damage on the box however small it may be, sometimes it’s a small hole and sometimes the cardboard is only lightly pressed in. If anything like this is found I would suggest that the customer open it to inspect the unit before signing for it.

Sometimes the carrier won’t allow time for the unit to be un-packaged and inspected so I would recommend marking the delivery receipt as BOX DAMAGED just so you are covered.

All claims for compensation must be addressed directly with the freight carrier.

1. You may refuse any shipment with signs of damage.
2. Your signature on the freight carriers documentation acknowledges that the shipment was received in good condition and absent of damage or shortages.
