Shipment Restrictions:

• The US Department of Energy (DOE) has passed new regulations with regard to Incandescent General Service Light Bulbs (lamps).  Lamps that do not produce more than 45 lumens/watt (and are not on the exclusion list) are now prohibited from being sold in the US.  For more information, see the DOE Website.
• Several states have instituted bans on older lamp technology (Linear Fluorescent, CFL, Halogen, HID) because of either an environmental impact or low efficacy impact on energy consumption.  Information on these bans can be found on the individual state governing body websites.  Halco has blocked the shipment of lamps to specific states if the product has been banned by that state.  Click here to view a list of Halco’s product restrictions by state.
• The California Energy Commission (CEC) has adopted appliance efficiency requirements (Title 20) which requires that products meet minimum levels of operating efficiency in order to be shipped to end users in the state of California. Halco blocks the shipment of products into CA that do not meet the criteria.  Click here for more information on CA Title 20 Regulations.  
  • For California distributors that ship outside of California, Halco will ship non-compliant products only if the distributor assumes full responsibility for complying with the California Title 20 Regulations for all shipments to end users.  Click this link (Title 20 Pass-Through Responsibility Form) to download, fill and sign.  The completed form must be completed in its entirety and returned to Halco on the Contact Us page prior to any order entry or release of shipment.

We will not be responsible for orders that are not fully inspected per our instructions.
• Shortages:
  The first step should be to inspect all packages to insure you have received the exact quantity of items that you ordered. If there are any shortages, you are responsible to note any shortages on the Bill of Lading/Proof of Delivery while the carrier driver is physically present. Please submit this information when contacting Halco Customer Care
• Damages:
  You are responsible to inspect all packages at the time of delivery. If any items on your order are damaged, note the damage on the Bill of Lading/Proof of Delivery while the carrier driver physically present. You must be as specific as possible when noting damage(s). This is crucial in distinguishing if the damage(s) is on the outside of the packaging or if it is on the actual item that you have unpacked in front of the driver. Always take photos of any damage that has occurred to be prepared for an inspection from the freight carrier. Do not throw away any of the original inner or outer packaging unless instructed to do so by Halco Lighting. If you sign your name on the freight bill without noting any damages, then you are stating that you have received your order/shipment in acceptable condition. Once this has occurred, there is no possibility of filing a freight claim, and there will be no reimbursement of freight charges, product costs, or any other charges that are incurred. When submitting, all claim requests for damaged items/shipments must include pictures.
• Concealed Damage:
  In the case of damage to the item and not the outside packaging, this is considered concealed damage. If the driver has already left your delivery location, the freight carrier has no evidence that the item was harmed while in their possession. If any damage is discovered, you must keep the original outer packaging as well as inner packaging. Please take pictures and contact Halco Lighting Customer Care upon this discovery.

• You will be responsible for full shipping charges and applicable fees going both ways plus a minimum 20% restocking fee for shipments that are refused for any reason other than damaged in transit or if the shipping error was made by Halco Lighting.
