Types of Freight Claims with Atech Logistics

If you send something through Atech Logistics, you expect it to arrive safely and on time. However, we know that sometimes things go differently than planned. In such cases, you may need to file a claim.

A claim is simply a way to ask for some of your money back if something goes wrong with your shipment, such as lost, damaged, or delayed.

The most common type of claim is a “damage claim.” This happens when your items arrive broken or not in the expected condition. To file this type of claim, you must immediately check your items and take pictures of any damage. Notate the proof of delivery if the item is damaged.

If your package never arrives, you can file a “loss claim.” If some of your items are missing, you can file a “shortage claim.”

Another type of claim is a “service failure claim.” This applies if your shipment is late and you paid for a guaranteed or expedited service.

To file a claim, you should act quickly and keep good records. Take photos, hold onto your shipping papers, and immediately let Atech Logistics know. You can take these proactive steps to protect yourself if something goes wrong.

What to do when freight damage is found

Remain Calm and Document Everything

  • Thoroughly inspect the integrity of the external packaging

  • If external packaging, shrink wrap etc. is not intact, record any damages on the Bill of Lading (BOL) or Proof of Delivery Receipt (POD).

  • Take photographs of any external packaging damage and product damage.

  • Contact Atech Logistics immediately to report damages (not your third-party logistics service provider).

  • Don’t throw anything away. If Atech Logistics inspects the product, they will use this to determine if the damage to the product is consistent with damage to containers.

  • Note: For concealed damage, most carriers have a 5-day deadline from the delivery date to file any damage claims. If you find damages after the delivery of your product, follow the same protocol above within those 5 days.

Important Tips for Atech Logistics Claims

Act quickly:

 

If you receive a damaged item, report it to the company that delivered it as soon as possible, ideally within five days of receiving it

 

Document the damage:

 

Take clear and detailed photos of the damaged item and its packaging. Don’t throw away the packaging or any delivery documents until the issue is resolved. This will provide evidence to support your claim.

 

Gather necessary information:

 

Make sure you have the Bill of Lading number, delivery date, and any pro numbers. Also, describe in detail the damaged item and the extent of the damage. Find out how much it would cost to repair or replace the damaged item.

 

File the claim properly:

 

Follow the instructions provided by the company for filing a claim. This may involve filling out a form online or sending a written letter. Make sure you submit all the required documents, such as the Bill of Lading, proof of value, and damage photos. Keep a copy of your claim submission for your records.

 

Understand claim limits:

 

Read the company’s liability policy and check the maximum claim amount. This will help you understand how much you can expect to recover.

 

Be persistent and patient:

 

It may take some time to resolve a claim, so be prepared to follow up with the company. Stay polite and professional in all your communications.
