Frequently Asked Questions
How do I schedule an inspection?
Can I request specifics when it comes to my inspection?
Absolutely! Nobody knows your product better than you and we love that. We want you to tell us exactly what you have any worries about and we will go to any length to cover that worry.
Do I have to send my goods to a North Star facility to be inspected?
Why do I need a quality inspection?
The reality is, when your cargo arrives and you find out that something was not made to your specifications or standards, options become severely limited. We want you to be ahead of that and be sure that your supply chain is resilient and without any breaks.
