Shipping: how to receive the goods
The standard shipment does not include delivery to the floor, but only the unloading on the sidewalk (where available, via the tail lift). The customer must therefore always be ready to assist the haulier in the unloading.
situér milano does not provide porterage and / or on-site positioning services. Therefore the customer will not have to pay any additional sum to the courier for unloading beyond that already incurred, when ordering, for shipping. The customer must contact us immediately if the courier wishes to receive sums for ancillary services.
The shipper delivers at an unspecified time between 09:00 and 17:00. If the forwarder does not find anyone to receive it, the goods will be returned to the warehouse of the courier closest to the customer. The courier will send the stock notice directly to situér milano. An operator of the situér milano will contact the customer to arrange the return. The courier will not accept the reopening of the customer's initiative.
It is the shipper's responsibility to transport the goods carefully and deliver an undamaged package.
The package was intact but the goods were damaged? Due to the inexperience and negligence of the shipper we are faced with the hidden damage from transport (art. 1698 of the civil code).
situér milano is not responsible for the transport carried out by the shipper.
With the transport contract, the carrier undertakes, for consideration, to transfer people or things from one place to another (article 1678 of the civil code).
The transport contract is a so-called work contract, in which whoever carries out the transport receives the goods in custody and is legally responsible for them. In fact, "the carrier is responsible for the loss and damage of the things delivered to him for transportation, from the moment he receives them to the one when he returns them to the recipient, if he does not prove that the loss or damage was caused by chance, by the nature or by the defects of the things themselves or by their packaging, or by the fact of the sender or that of the recipient ".
During all this time the carrier has the custody of the goods received and there are few eventualities that relieve him from loss and damage of the same.
Before releasing the shipper, the customer must make sure of the conditions of the material delivered.
Signing without reservation or with reservation without justification is not valid for the purpose of the dispute and is equivalent to not making reservations. To open an insurance practice, it is MANDATORY to place a non-generic but well-motivated control reserve. In no case must unconditional reserve statements be made: write, for example, "ACCEPTED WITH RESERVE OF VERIFICATION" or "RESERVE OF CONTROL" exempts situér milano from any liability. The customer will not have to worry about any reservations presented to the shipper; these will be automatically canceled after 8 days.
situér milano will initiate its investigations and may open the insurance practice ONLY and EXCLUSIVELY provided that the customer has diligently motivated the control reservation.
The customer must take all the time necessary for the appropriate checks, not in a hurry to affix the signature on the shipping receipt. Making reservations about shipping, obviously where they are justified, is a right guaranteed by art. 1698 c.c.
The verification operations and any disputes must take place within 3 working days following the delivery date.

The term "shipping times" means the time of entrustment of the goods to the courier.
