    Thassos.com ensures and guarantees delivery of the material in good condition, with an acceptable damage ratio not to exceed 2% of the respective shipment. When ordering tile products, customers should order extra material (approximately 15%, depending on the application) to offset the waste factor inherent in cutting tiles to fit the installation area, and for the possibility of incremental damage. Damaged or missing material in excess of 2 % of the total shipment will be replaced at no charge to the customer or Thassos.com will issue a full refund, or credit (at the Customer's choosing) for the value of those damaged goods. Customers are required to inspect the material upon receipt and make any claims for damaged or missing products on the Bill of Lading/Delivery Receipt provided by the driver at the time of delivery. In the event of damaged goods arriving, it is important to retain all damaged material and packaging on the premises to provide time for an insurance adjuster to inspect the product. Should the material arrive with visible damage, it is important to notify Thassos.com as soon as possible, not to exceed 3 business days from receipt of the material. In the event that the material arrives, and appears to be in good condition, but upon further inspection after delivery, there is concealed damage customers must notify Thassos.com within 3 business days of delivery. In the event of damaged or missing goods, please call your Thassos.com representative, or contact our main office at 1-866-887-8663. Pictures of the damaged goods, a copy of the Bill of Lading, or other related documentation may be requested by Thassos.com to assist in the claims process. Thassos.com will be responsible for the filing of freight claims directly with the freight carriers. Notification of damaged or missing products that are made after 3 business days from the delivery of the goods may not be eligible for replacement or refunds. Please understand that a late notification from customers inhibits, or eliminates, the ability of Thassos.com to file a freight claim with most carriers.

Material that is returned must be packaged for pick-up in the same way it was received. Whenever possible, tile products should be packaged face-to-face and back-to-back to avoid scratches on the surface. In the event that a customer is responsible for damages inflicted upon the goods on the return process no refund will be issued to the customer for the relevant damaged product. Material should be firmly secured inside the crate, or tightly shrink-wrapped on the pallet. Thassos.com will not accept returns for goods that have been used by the customer (installed and later uninstalled, or uncrated and handled in a manner that makes the re-sale of the products unfeasible). Credit or refunds for returned goods will be issued after material has been returned to the original shipping location, or other designated Thassos.com facility and inspected. Samples and Special Orders (see below) are not eligible for return and will receive no refund.

  5. Thassos.com works with a variety of reputable freight carriers for its US and International shipments. In the case of commercial deliveries (all non-residential deliveries), the customer will be responsible for offloading the pallets at the commercial loading dock or commercial job site. In most cases, customers may order additional services through Thassos.com, including lift-gate service (mechanical elevators. Deliveries to residential neighborhoods also require special logistical considerations. These additional services require specialized equipment and will result in additional accessorial charges that are the responsibility of the customer. In most cases, the drivers that deliver to residential areas will not drive onto the driveway of customers in residential areas due to liability concerns, or due to access issues. In the event that a customer orders a residential delivery with a lift-gate service, Thassos.com is responsible for the delivery and offloading of the material to the end of the driveway. If feasible, and practical, the drivers may, at their sole discretion, agree to roll the pallets (not individual pieces) of material using a pallet jack (similar to a dolly for heavier material), to a more convenient location for the customers. Thassos.com does not guarantee that the job site conditions will permit such an accommodation, and the ultimate responsibility for moving the material from the end of the driveway to the final placement of the customer's choosing is the responsibility of the customer. Pallet jacks will not work on gravel, dirt or soft driveways. In the event that the goods need to be moved on the job site, equipment such as a forklift (with pneumatic tires if going over gravel or soft ground) and an operator will be required to move the pallets to their final location. The expenses related to forklifts and operators, is the responsibility of the customer. Please speak with your Thassos.com representative if you have questions regarding the freight and logistics process.
