DELUXE SHIPPING PROTECTION POLICY

At Northwoods Humidors, we offer our customers the option to purchase Deluxe Shipping Protection as an added layer of security for their orders. This voluntary add-on is designed to provide peace of mind by covering replacement costs for packages that are damaged, lost, or stolen during transit. Failure to purchase Deluxe Shipping Protection means that Northwoods Humidors is not responsible for any damage, loss, or theft that occurs after the package has been handed over to the shipping carrier. In that instance, please work directly with the carrier (such as USPS or UPS) to file a claim and resolve the issue. Below are the key points of our Deluxe Shipping Protection policy:

  1. Coverage: Deluxe Shipping Protection covers replacement costs for packages that are damaged, lost, or stolen during shipping.
  2. Voluntary Add-On: Purchasing Deluxe Shipping Protection is optional. By choosing to deselect this option at checkout, customers acknowledge that Northwoods Humidors is not liable for any mishaps caused by the shipping carrier.
  3. Filing a Claim: To file a claim under the Deluxe Shipping Protection policy, customers must complete a simple three-question report:
    • What happened?** – Provide a detailed description of the issue (e.g., damaged, lost, or stolen package).
    • When did it happen?** – Specify the date the issue occurred.
    • Provide an image** – Include a clear image supporting the claim (e.g., photos of damaged items or packaging).
  4. Customer Responsibility: In the event that Northwoods Humidors files a claim with the shipping carrier to recover some of the loss or damage, the customer is required to respond to any communication from the shipping carrier. This is necessary to facilitate the claim process and ensure timely resolution.
  5. Claim Resolution: Once the required information and documentation are submitted, Northwoods Humidors will review the claim. If the claim is approved, we will arrange for a replacement of the affected items as quickly as possible.

We are committed to providing our customers with the best possible service and support. If you have any questions or need further assistance regarding Deluxe Shipping Protection, please contact our customer service team.
