SHIPMENT INSURANCE:

Insurance is crucial for safeguarding your purchase. We strongly recommend that customers secure insurance for their orders to ensure full coverage against any in-transit issues such as damage or loss.

Choosing insurance ensures your order's full value is 100% covered against such incidents.

Due to the remote nature of some destinations, 3rd party shipping insurance may not be applicable to all orders. In the event that your order is deemed uninsurable we reserve the right to cancel the policy and refund the policy amount back to the card on file.

TAG Liquor Stores reserves the right to determine if orders are deemed insurable.

HOW ARE INSURANCE CLAIMS HANDLED?

Shipping Insurance policies are provided by a 3rd party. In the event that your order is lost, damaged or stolen, you may file a claim directly with the 3rd party provider.

How to File an claim

- Go to the Route Resolve Center (via the Route app or web link from your order confirmation email)

Enter your email and order number, follow the prompts.

WHAT IF I DON’T BUY INSURANCE?

Insurance is highly encouraged but not mandatory. Without insurance, the financial responsibility shifts to the customer for any loss or damage. Nonetheless, we will endeavor to assist in tracking down any issues with your shipment to the best of our abilities.

NON-INSURANCE CLAIMS:

For orders that are lost or damaged during transit and were not insured, please contact us at shop@tagliquorstores.ca. While we will assist in communicating with the carrier to address your concerns, please understand that tagliquorstores.com does not assume liability for uninsured shipments. Resolution options provided by the carrier may be limited, and we cannot guarantee compensation for such orders. Therefore, we strongly encourage our customers to consider purchasing insurance to safeguard their investments.
