Customer will be notified when a deficiency is discovered and approval will be obtained for handling at special rates before proceeding with work.

When performing mailings for not-for-profit customers, IMI is not responsible for content in mailed materials which causes a customer to lose their Nonprofit Status.
All direct mail handling and processing involves spoilage. Spoilage of up to three (3) percent of customer’s material is typical. Allowances for spoilage should be taken into consideration in ordering material.Every effort will be made to handle customer’s material with frugality and to prevent undue spoilage. Nevertheless, IMI cannot accept responsibility for shortages of material as a result of normal spoilage in processing. All stock and materials belonging to a customer will be held and stored only at the customer’s risk, and the customer shall be responsible for insurance on their material.
Printer delivery tickets must accompany the material delivered and should show the number of skids or cartons, the quantity per skid or carton and the total delivery quantity.
