You are not obligated to sign for any damaged freight from the shipper; however any equipment you sign for does become your property, therefore it is your responsibility to claim to freight carrier for compensation, all damages must be noted on the delivery receipt. If the bill of lading is signed and does not have damages or shortages noted on it neither the freight line or Shark Technologies LLC will be liable for the cost incurred to replace those parts which are damaged or lost.
