 - Instructions for Shipping Your Automobile Parts
to Three Rivers Gold -

1. Check the condition of the automotive parts you want gold plated  Visually check the items you want plated to make sure that they are in good condition. Please do not send damaged, severely rusted, badly dented, deeply scratched or broken auto parts. These will not plate properly.

Your local dealership can supply you with new chrome parts for the year and model of your car. We can usually do an amazing restorations of older parts, but some parts are just to far gone. We will return any parts that we feel are not plateable. Call us for details if you have any questions.

2. Include a note with the following information Include a note with a brief description of your item and any special instructions you may have along with your full name, "ship-to" address, city, state, zip and a telephone number or e-mail address where you can be reached.

After we receive your package for plating and assess the final gold plating cost, we will contact you for a final approval before starting the work. If you like, you may print out our "online packing list", fill in all the necessary information and include it with your order.

3. Packaging and Shipping your parts Make sure the item is packaged properly! If boxes or packages are not secured, the items may fall out or be damaged in transit. We suggest wrapping the parts individually in newspaper and placing them in the center of the box using "crumpled-up newspaper" or "Styrofoam peanuts" to cushion your automobile or truck parts for the journey through the mail to our factory.

After preparing your package, shake it gently to make sure that you cannot hear the items "rattling around" loosely inside the container. If you are uncertain about preparing the package yourself, we suggest that you contact a retail shipper like Mail Boxes Etc. or PostNet to prepare and ship your box to us.

4. Seal the box with tape Seal the outside of the box securely with tape. Use a good quality strapping or sealing box tape.

5. We suggest that you insure your item for it's present value.  We do not take responsibility for damages incurred through shipping.

6. Methods of shipping We suggest using the U.S. Postal Service for small items or U.P.S./ Federal Express or any other reputable shipping company for your larger items like wheels, grilles and large trim parts. We have daily UPS online service to and from our facility.

7. Payment Terms: There are a few basic methods of payment for our plating services. First, you can call or e mail us to get an estimate on the plating costs and include a check or money order along with your work. Second, we can send your order back UPS C.O.D. and you can pay the driver upon delivery.

Or third, you can send us the part you want gold plated and we can call you with an exact amount and arrange for the payment by credit card over the telephone before the parts leave our plant.

8. Payment Options: We accept cashiers checks, money orders, and personal or business checks. For credit card orders, we accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express and almost any other card available.

You can send your part to be plated along with your card information (your name, card number, expiration date, address & zip code - same as on card) and we will contact you by telephone or e mail with the exact plating costs when we receive the parts.
