2. Out-of-Town Warranty & Service Limitations

Replacement part shipping

Local repair or assembly services
Mobler Online does not guarantee in-home service outside the GVRD.

Noted with the carrier immediately

Photographed before unpacking whenever possible
-
Reported to Mobler Online promptly
Failure to report freight damage at delivery may limit the ability to process claims with freight carriers.
