We stand behind every order. If something goes wrong, we will make it right — quickly and without hassle. Here is exactly what to do in every situation.

Quick reference
1. Damaged Shipments
Product damaged during transit — carrier's responsibility
1 At delivery

Do NOT refuse the shipment. Refusing a damaged delivery creates complications with the freight claim and delays your resolution. Accept the delivery, note any visible damage on the carrier's delivery receipt before the driver leaves, and photograph all damage immediately — pallet wrap, outer cases, and damaged product.

2 Contact us

Email orders@belle-electric.com within 5 business days of delivery with your order number and photos of all damage. Claims reported after 5 business days may not qualify for carrier reimbursement.

No RMA required
3 Resolution

We will ship a replacement or issue a full credit — your choice. You keep the damaged product. No return shipment required. No cost to you.

No restocking fee
2. Wrong Item Received
You received a different product than what you ordered
