Shipping & Returns

WHAT SHOULD I DO IF MY ORDER IS DAMAGED OR SHORT PIECES?

Big Ass Fans takes pride in its products and packaging. We certify this shipment is properly classified, packaged, marked, and labeled, and is in proper condition for transportation.

Once your order is signed for at the delivery point, the shipment becomes your property
and our liability ends. Help protect yourself from loss and damage.

  1. Before signing for your order, inspect it immediately for freight loss or damage.
  2. Note any freight loss or damage on the delivery receipt before the driver leaves, e.g. “1 carton damaged” or “1 carton short.”
  3. Get a copy of the signed delivery receipt that shows the freight loss or damage notation.
  4. Take pictures (if possible) and keep all packaging until final disposition has been made.
  5. Contact Big Ass Fans Customer Service at 1300 244 277.

If freight loss or damage is not noted at the time of delivery, claims for loss and damage is between you and the freight carrier and any replacement of the product is at your cost.
