 Return Policy

We understand that mistakes can happen, both in Centra Foods’ operation and once it is out of our hands during delivery. However, we cannot readily accept returns due to the strict USDA and FDA food safety and security standards we comply with.

With this in mind, there are two situations in which we will provide a product replacement:

1. If a different item than you ordered was shipped by Centra Foods in a warehouse error
2. If freight damage occurred in transit, prior to the point that you accepted delivery and due to the fault of the shipper. This situation requires photo and Bill of Lading documentation. Centra Foods’ step-by-step return policy must be followed to be eligible for a replacement or refund.

If You Received A Different Item Than Ordered

Mistakes are rare, but they can happen. If you believe you were shipped a different item than you ordered, please refuse delivery and contact our Customer Service Department within one (1) business day of delivery to alert us that the shipment has been returned with the driver.

Please have the following information noted for you discussion:

• Order Number
• Order Date
• Company Name
• Item Ordered
• Packaging Ordered

With this information compiled, we will try to resolve this for you right away.

WARNING: Do not open any of the containers or break any of the products seals. This will make your product ineligible for a replacement or refund.

All sales are final. If you placed your order for the wrong product in error, replacements and refunds will not be available due to strict USDA/FDA food safety programs in place.

If Your Product Was Damaged in Transit

If your product incurred damage in transit prior to accepting delivery, you may be eligible for a replacement or refund.

If your product is damaged upon delivery, you must refuse delivery of this pallet report any shipping issues or damage to your order within one (1) business days of delivery.

If your order has freight damage, do NOT accept or take possession of that pallet; instead, tell the driver that you are “refusing delivery due to damage”. The damaged product with return back with the driver, and we can send a new shipment out to you.

Always refuse delivery of the full pallet. For example, if your order consists of 60 35 Lb. Containers, and only 3 of them are damaged, you must refuse delivery of the entire pallet. On the other hand, if you ordered 360 35 Lb. Containers (or 6 pallets) and only 3 of them are damaged, you only need to refuse the pallet that contains the damage. In this case, the other 5 pallets can be received.

To be eligible for a return or replacement, you MUST take the following steps:

1. Locate the Bill of Lading (BOL) copy that the driver keeps.
2. Make a note that there was damage of the Bill of Lading that the driver keeps.  For example, “3 Jugs Damaged” or “Damage Present”.
3. Ask the driver to sign this copy of the BOL, showing that there was agreed upon damage at the time of delivery.
4. Take a photo of the noted and signed BOL (see above).
5. Take photos of the damaged product (please get 3+ photos showing multiple angles of the damage).
6. Email our Online Storefront Customer Service Department the following information to begin the return process:

To accept delivery of your bulk shipment, you (or an authorized adult representative) will need to be home to meet the driver and accept the shipment. Signature for receipt of goods is required.

If you are not home when the driver delivers your order (within this pre-arranged block of time), they will NOT leave your shipment without someone there to accept delivery and review it for any possible damage. Signature is required. In this case, your order will return back to the terminal and the shipping company will get in touch to schedule an appointment within the next few days.

If you are not home on the 2nd delivery appointment attempt, your order will automatically be re-routed back to Centra Foods, and you will be refunded the cost of the shipment less all shipping costs (to and from) and a $100 re-stocking fee.
