   • Cores returned after 45 days and up to 180 days are subject to a $100.00 late fee
   • Cores returned 6 months and up to 1 year are subject to a 50% reduction in the core credit allowance
   • Cores returned after 1 year are subject to a 75% reduction in the core credit allowance
3. If you are stocking our units at your facility, you must notify us in writing or e-mail nmorgan@valleytruckparts.com each week with a list of the units sold to your customer. This information should include your company name, location, phone number, contact name, the unit model number, our serial number and the date of sale to your customer. Timeline for item #2 above starts when the unit is sold to your customer.
4. All cores are to be returned via a carrier of our choice to: Reman Division, 1900 Chicago Dr. SW, Grand Rapids, MI 49519. You will receive a packet with each reman unit you purchase containing a Bill of Lading already completed for our desired freight carrier in your region. When the core is ready to be returned, contact the carrier we have advised to schedule the pick-up. Do not return cores using a non-approved freight carrier, as you will be responsible for any extra freight charges incurred. You may also go to RemanCoreCenter.com for an automated return process.

Please make sure the core tag is securely attached to the core upon return, as this helps to assure the core credit is applied to the correct account and towards the correct invoice. If the core tag is missing or lost, please send a copy of the invoice with the core for proper credit to be issued. It is also helpful to have some kind of identification such as a shipping label or tag attached to the core to help us identify where the core came from. If not properly identified, the result may be a delay in getting your core credit.
