It is important to realize that signing the Bill of Lading upon receipt of new product is confirmation that it has been received in satisfactory condition. Once the Bill of Lading is signed there is generally no recourse against the shipping agent for shipping damage. You have the right to make the driver wait while you examine the product. Please take advantage of this right.
Carefully cut the plastic banding that secures the packaging; scissors can do this safely. Remove the packaging from the chair, lift the top lid from the tube and remove the tube from the bottom lid. Remove the plastic bag from the product. Cut straps that secure the casters, unlock the casters and remove the chair from the packaging.
