Handling - Receiving a Shipment
Trouble-free unloading begins with letting your CommScope Customer Service Representative know of any special
packaging or delivery requirements (reel must be shipped on rolling edge, no shipping dock available, call before
delivery, etc.). CommScope will make every reasonable effort to comply with your shipping needs.
When the shipment arrives, inspect every reel and pallet of material for damage as it is unloaded. Suspect conduit
should be set aside for a more detailed inspection before the shipping documents are signed.
Damage can occur during the unloading process. Damage can also occur by dropping the reels or pallets, or
improper handling of reels with a forklift.
If any damage is visible or suspected and if it is decided to accept the shipment, note the
damage and the reel number on ALL copies of the bill of lading. If the damage is too
extensive to accept the shipment, advise the carrier’s driver that the shipment is being
refused because of the damage. Immediately notify CommScope’s Customer Service
Department at 800-982-1708 so that arrangements can be made for a replacement
shipment. Be sure to
inspect your
shipment
