  • If there is no loading ramp at the location, we must send a vehicle with a tail lift.

If you are wondering how to order packaging you will find more information under point 3.

Important things to keep in mind when you are returning used IT-equipment:

• Remember to include all parts and accessories that belong with the product. If the products are returned incomplete the remarketing value will be reduced.
• If the devices are locked with bios password, cloud lock or other form of password protections please remove them before you return the products.
• Company EORI number (Economic Operator Registration and Identification). It’s used by customs and other authorities to monitor and track shipments coming into and out of the European Union. CHG-MERIDIAN need this to make the proforma and commercial invoice.
• Registration of assets with Manufacturer / Model / Processor (CPU) / Serial number. This list provides the basis for 1. The estimate of the fair market value for the Proforma Invoice and 2. Control check for inspection upon arrival at the Technology- and Service Center.

The best way to transport large quantities of IT equipment is to stack them in our metal cabinets or place them on pallets. For smaller items, the best way is to use cardboard boxes or our boxes in hard plastic with safety locks.

In all packaging solutions, the following recommendations should be followed:

• Open space should be filled to prevent objects from moving during transport. Filling paper, air cushions, packaging foam or other suitable material can be used.
• To streamline the handling process of the equipment, please place all external devices (keyboards, mice, cables, etc.) separately in cardboard boxes.

 

On request, CHG-MERIDIAN can also arrange packaging on behalf of the customer. Contact us for more information and a price estimate.

When the goods are properly packed and secured, label the shipment with the following information:

• Sender: <Company name>
• Reference number: This can be, for example, EOL number, appointment number or an assigned number.
• Recipient: CHG-MERIDIAN Skien AS, Rødmyrlia 20, 3735 Skien, Norway

Please place the goods in an area where it is easy for the carrier to load the vehicle. If there are special things we need to consider when it comes to the vehicle size, access or equipment?
