Shipmytrade Claims
ALL claims must come through Shipmytrade. Below is our procedure for claims.
Only items that are adequately packaged for transport will be considered for a claim.
To make a claim, ensure that you keep the original packaging, this may be required for the claims assessment process to determine if the item was adequately packaged.
To ensure that your goods will be covered, please use all of the original packaging for products when possible, otherwise see our packaging guidelines.(Note: That these are guidelines only and we do not guarantee any acceptance by our supplier for claims, so please ensure you do your best with packaging to prevent damages in transit).
Please include your Shipmytrade Reference Number when making a claim.
