** Special orders and non-stocks are materials that Würth McFadden’s regularly carry in inventory. These items are ordered for the customer by Würth McFadden’s from the manufacturer upon a specific request from the customer. Würth McFadden’s manufacturers generally do not allow Würth McFadden’s to return these items to the manufacturer.

 

  1. Only current stock items of reasonable quantity will be considered for return and credit.
  2. Shortages and Claims:
    • Any concealed damage, defective material or shortages must be reported with 48 hours of receipt.
    • Freight damages or shortages must be reported to the carrier upon receipt of product. All packaging materials must be saved as it may be a requirement of the carrier for processing a claim.
  3. Customers must receive a Returned Goods Authorization from Würth McFadden’s prior to returning products(s) for credit.

Upon contacting Würth McFadden’s, we will provide customers with a RGA number. All product returns must have an RGA number included with the return in order for the customer to receive credit.

  1. Würth McFadden’s provides customers with United Parcel Service’s (UPS) “Authorization Return Services” (ARS) shipping labels.

ARS labels are routinely included in Würth McFadden’s shipments that require box packaging and are also available by contacting an outside and or inside sales person. Return items with ARS labels that are given to UPS will be delivered to a McFadden’s location.

In areas that Würth McFadden’s delivery vehicles operate, customers can have products returned without charge by giving return packages to the Würth McFadden’s delivery truck driver (after an RGA number is created).

If a product is returned as a result of customer error and an ARS label is used, the customer will be charged a $ 9.50 ARS fee. Products returned as a result of damage, defect or McFadden’s employee error will not be charged the ARS fee.

This return policy is effective November 1, 2023 and is subject to change upon written notice.
