How to Get Started

Purpose of this Guide
The Nordstrom Routing Guide provides instructions on carrier selection and shipping specifications for all
Domestic Purchase Orders with an FOB point in the United States. Carrier selection is based on:
 Shipment point of origin (state or zip code)
 Shipping method/routing mode
 Shipment weight
 Ship To Distribution Center or Consolidator
How to use this Guide
Please review the Shipping Guidelines section of this manual carefully. Violation of the instructions
and/or rules contained in these guidelines may result in refused shipment(s) and/or additional charges to
the supplier.
You may use this guide to identify which carrier to use for any given shipment and to determine whether
any special handling is required by either Nordstrom or the carrier for that shipment.
Please note that the information in this guide is updated periodically and can change without
notice. We do not recommend that you print any section of this guide. Please refer to the online version
of the Routing Guide found at www.nordstromsupplier.com to make sure you have the most current
information available.
Finding the Authorized Carrier for Your Shipment
Follow these steps to identify the authorized carrier for your freight shipment to Nordstrom:
 Consult Maximum Shipment Weight Limits (in Section 2: Shipment Preparation) to calculate the
total weight of your shipment.
 Refer to Section 8: Store/DC List to determine which Distribution Center is associated with the
store(s) on your Purchase Order (PO).
 Determine which authorized shipping mode – Air or Surface – has been specified on the PO.
 Go to the Origin State Pages (Section 6) and select the page for the state (or zip code area) from
which the shipment will originate.
o Review the ‘General Rules’ section of the State Page.
o Locate the chart, about mid-page, containing column headers ‘Ship To DC’, ‘PO
Specifies Surface’, ‘PO Specifies Air’.
o Determine what DC(s) you are shipping to, the weight you are shipping (NOTE:
Refer to ‘General Rules’ for instructions on how to calculate weight)
o Determine the shipping mode from the Nordstrom PO you are shipping
o Locate the authorized carrier based on mode, weight, and DC you are shipping
to.
o Note: It is possible to have more than one carrier by DC—be sure to check
carefully.
After identifying the authorized carrier for your shipment, refer to the Carrier Pages (Section 5) for specific
instructions on shipping with this carrier.
For More Help

Shipping Guidelines
12B
Who May Authorize Carriers
This routing guide is the only authorized source of instructions about carrier selection, receiving
addresses and shipping specifications for Domestic Purchase Orders (POs).
Nordstrom Buyers may select the shipping method for a PO, but they are not authorized to select the
carrier. If the carrier name that appears on the PO does not agree with the authorized carrier as
determined by the Routing Guide, please contact [email protected]
Failure to comply with this routing guide places full liability for loss or damage on the supplier.


Deviation from these instructions without approval of the Nordstrom DC Traffic office, or
Nordstrom Corporate Transportation office may result in a $100.00 handling charge, which will be
deducted from your invoice.
If you choose to send your shipment via a carrier not authorized by Nordstrom, your shipment
must be sent prepaid. If you opt for collect billing via a carrier not authorized by Nordstrom
Traffic, Nordstrom reserves the right to either refuse the shipment or reverse the freight
charges back to the shipper. Use of any carrier or shipping method (routing) not specifically
authorized in this guide or by Nordstrom Traffic will result in the supplier paying all transportation
charges, regardless of whether or not Nordstrom might have incurred lower or higher
transportation costs with the unauthorized shipping method.
Supplier/Shipper Benefits
When suppliers follow the Nordstrom Routing Guide instructions on carrier selection and shipping, they
enjoy several benefits, including:
 Discounted carrier rates when sharing freight costs with Nordstrom;
 Pre-scheduling and prioritization of shipments for delivery at the Ship To DC.
Small Package Shipments
13B
In an effort to decrease the number of small package shipments received at our Distribution Centers,
Nordstrom requests that your shipping dock make every effort to consolidate packages/Purchase Orders
FROM your single shipping location TO the Nordstrom Ship To DC so that your shipments may meet our
standard shipment criteria...
Collect/Prepaid Shipments
14B
All shipments to Nordstrom must be sent ‘Collect’ or ‘Bill Third Party’ via an appropriate authorized
carrier, with the exception of Parcel Post shipments. Small Package shipments on UPS must be billed to
Nordstrom’s Third Party Bill To account, (see UPS pages in section 5 ‘Carrier Pages’ for details).
POs that stipulate ‘Vendor Pays Total Freight’ should be shipped ‘Collect’, or ‘Bill Third Party’ via an
authorized carrier as explained in this guide. Nordstrom will deduct any freight charges owed from the
next check remittance... This is typically advantageous to the shipper, as they are able to take advantage
of Nordstrom’s contracted rates.
Nordstrom will not reimburse shippers for any ‘prepaid’ shipments, whether via authorized or nonauthorized carriers... Should you accidentally ship ‘prepaid’ via an authorized carrier, please contact
[email protected] for assistance with rebilling the freight charges to Nordstrom. See also Section 4
‘Freight Invoicing and Reimbursement’
Note: Suppliers are responsible for any loss and/or damage associated with prepaid shipments
Nordstrom Routing Guide
Section 1: Introduction
5
Unauthorized Carriers
The following rules apply when shipping via a carrier not listed in this guide:
 The merchandise must be shipped PREPAID (including any accessorials involved with
delivering per our guidelines);
 The merchandise must be delivered to the destination DC (or store if not delivering to a DC)
within the shipping window on the PO.
 Your prepaid carrier must contact our DC’s for delivery appointments prior to the delivery
attempt. At the time of contact the carrier must present your bill of lading number, carrier pro#,
ship date, PO numbers and carton count per PO.
Shipping Timeframes (Ship Windows)
15B
The PO shipping window (i.e., ‘Not Before date’ to ‘Not After date’), indicates the first and last date that
merchandise may leave the shipper’s dock. . Merchandise shipped outside of this shipping window may
be refused by the DC’s or the carrier, and if accepted by a DC may result in a chargeback... If one of the
shipping window dates falls on a weekend or a holiday, the order must be shipped on the weekday
following the earliest ship date or prior to the latest ship date in order to be considered valid.
If for any reason the supplier cannot meet the latest ship date, an extension may be requested from and
granted only by the Nordstrom buyer who owns the Purchase Order. In all cases, the Routing Guide
instructions on carrier selection must be followed. Buyers are not authorized to give instructions on
carrier selection. Failure to comply with this guideline will result in the supplier being held liable for all
freight and handling costs incurred.
International Shipments
16B
Nordstrom participates in the Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT).
Nordstrom will not be responsible for international freight charges nor will we act as the importer of record
for Customs and Border Protection clearance or Importer Security Filing.
The price you negotiate with Nordstrom should include all costs associated with producing the product
and importing it into the United States.
Important:
If your order is sourced outside of the United States and the domestic Purchase Order states ‘FOB
factory’, it is incorrect and/or invalid. The correct term of sale on the Purchase Order should be ‘Delivered
Duty Paid’ (DDP), and the named DDP point should be the United States Border Crossing City. The DDP
Location is determined by the shipper. Nordstrom will not act as or be listed as the Importer of Record.
When shipping from outside of the United States, you will be the shipper of the merchandise and your
carrier will bill you for the freight movement from your factory to the DDP location. This freight cost is at
your expense and will appear on the freight bill as prepaid by the shipper. All domestic PO shipments
originating in Canada or Mexico must be shipped PREPAID to your United States Border Crossing City at
least 2 days prior to the PO cancel date. Nordstrom takes ownership and is responsible for freight
charges that are incurred after the cargo clears U.S. Customs at the Border Crossing City.
If your PO is DDP, it is regarded as a domestic purchase order. For authorized routing, reference your
United States Border Crossing City to determine the state or zip code page to use in the Routing Guide
as your Origin State for carrier selection. All Nordstrom DC’s regard the ship date from your United
States Border Crossing City as the actual domestic PO ship date.
If a PO sourced outside of the United States shows the term of sale as ‘FOB factory’, contact your
Nordstrom buyer to alert them that this PO is being sourced outside of the United States and that ‘FOB
factory’ is an improper term of sale for future POs. International shipping points with ‘FOB factory’ on a
Domestic type order are invalid and can be refused.
Shipment Destinations
17B
Nordstrom Distribution Centers
Ship to the Nordstrom Distribution Centers listed in Section 8: Store/DC List, unless the buyer has
provided an override Ship-To DC on the PO Direct-to-Store
If Ship-To is a store number rather than a DC number, the PO is considered a ‘Direct-to-Store’ PO.
Please contact [email protected] for more information.
Nordstrom Routing Guide
Section 1: Introduction
6
For Designer Merchandise please refer to Page 15 of this guide.
Nordstrom Rack Exception Purchase Orders
If you your Nordstrom purchase order is coded with PO type ‘PM’ it is considered a Rack Exception PO.
All cartons on this order should be routed to one DC location.
If the PO is a ‘Bulk Pack’ Rack PO these orders are typically routed to a single DC location (can be any
DC).
The Nordstrom Rack buying office should have previously notified you of these exceptions, and what
DC(s) to route your cartons to. If you have any questions on what DC’s to route your cartons to, please
contact your Nordstrom Rack buyer.
ASN and GS1-128 Label Requirements
For ‘Bulk Pack’ the ASN requirement for bulk shipments is that there is one ASN per ship-to location
(DC). Standard ASN requirements still apply; there must be one ASN per shipment per DC per day with a
unique sub-BOL number in the REF*BM segment of the ASN data. In the case of bulk shipments the
‘mark-for’ segment is the DC. The GS1-128 Label ‘Mark for’ location for bulk-pack shipments would be
the ship-to DC.

SHIPMENT PREPARATION
General Rules
18B
We urge all shippers to consolidate their shipments to the smallest possible number of shipments per
week (as PO shipping windows permit). The heavier the shipment, the more economical the freight
charges. This is especially important to shippers if they are sharing freight costs via Freight Agreements
and/or PO Freight Allowances.
If your warehouse ships numerous small package shipments each day or week, please contact us at
[email protected] and we will be glad to help you review your carrier selection process to ensure
correct interpretation of the Nordstrom Routing Guide.
Shipment Definitions
Shipments fall into three general categories:
1. Gilbert and NorCon Consolidation Shipping States
If the state of origin page lists Gilbert, A. Duie Pyle/Gilbert, New Penn/Gilbert or NorCon as the
carrier/consolidator, then a shipment is defined as all cartons for all POs going to all DC’s on a
given day. The sum total weight of your entire shipment for the day will determine the
appropriate carrier to contact for cargo pick up.
2. A.Duie Pyle, CTE, UPS Freight, XPO Logistics, Oak Harbor Freight and BTX Global
For these carriers, a shipment is defined as all POs and cartons shipping to a single DC on a
single day. If you are shipping to 4 DC’s on a given day, then you would be sending a total of 4
shipments (one per DC).
3. Small Package Carriers: UPS, FedEx Express, US Mail
For these carriers a shipment is defined as each package.
PO Verification
19B
All shippers are required to verify their POs with the carrier at the time of scheduling a pickup for
their shipment to Nordstrom.
EXCEPTIONS:
This PO Verification requirement is not valid for;
a) UPS Small Package shipments
b) HauteLook shipments shipping to Nordstrom’s East Coast Fulfillment Center (881)
Carriers must verify that the shipper’s POs are valid and that they are ready to enter the Nordstrom
Transportation pipeline prior to issuing a Pickup Number and scheduling a pickup. Carriers will not
schedule a pickup until they have confirmed that the POs are valid. Shippers have access to the
Nordstrom Order Verification System (NOVS) website, which enables them to check the status of their
POs. However, shippers must continue to verify their POs with the carrier. The validity of a PO is
dependent upon the actual ship date, which is the day the carrier signs for the POs on the shipping dock.
Please refer to the Carrier Pages (Section 5) to locate contact numbers and PO Verification instructions
for the specific carrier your company will be using for shipping.
NOTE: All shippers are required to ship within the Nordstrom PO shipping window, regardless of an
‘Accept’ or ‘Refuse’ message from NOVS. In all cases, shipping outside the ship window could result in a
freight chargeback or refusal at the DC.
Nordstrom Routing Guide
Section 2: Shipment Preparation

Nordstrom Order Verification System (NOVS)
20B
Shippers may check the status of their POs via the Nordstrom Order Verification System (NOVS), which
is available on Nordstrom’s Supplier Portal (http://portal.nordstrom.com). Each authorized member of
your company who wishes to access NOVS must register and acquire their own user ID and password.
Typically your Accounts Receivable Department will have completed the Supplier Portal set-up process
and will act as the Administrator for all of your company’s individual accounts.
If your company does not currently have access to the Supplier Portal, please contact us at
[email protected].
Maximum Shipment Weight Limits
21B
The following standard shipment weight limits are covered in this guide:
 Maximum surface shipment per DC: up to 10,000 pounds or up to 1,800 cubic feet
 Maximum air shipment per DC: 2,000 pounds
Charges for surface shipments are assessed based on the higher of two values:
 The actual weight of the shipment – OR –
 The dimensional weight of all cartons within a shipment, as calculated using the following
formula:
H x W x L = Cubic Inches x 0.000578704 = Cubic Feet x Cartons = Shipment Cubic Feet

Compliance Manual found at nordstromsupplier.com for more detailed information.
Carton Dimensions Required on Surface and Air Shipments
2B
Our carrier programs require the shipper to provide accurate carton count by size (dimensions) on your
Bill of Lading or Airway Bill at time of shipment.
For Example: 4 ctns @ AA X BB X CC
10 ctns @ CC X DD X EE
Nordstrom Routing Guide
Section 2: Shipment Preparation

Volume Shipments
23B
Contact Nordstrom at least 3 business days prior to your requested ship date for instructions;
Surface shipments (per DC);
 Weighing more than 10,000 lbs. or having a cubic measure greater than 1,800 cubic feet
Air shipments (per DC);

Weighing more than 2,000 lbs.
To schedule a volume load pick up, please email [email protected] .
 Your shipping dock must be accessible to a standard 53 foot tractor-trailer combination.
 Cartons are to be floor loaded into the trailers. However, if the entire load will fit on the trailer
using pallets this can be allowed, but only if the pallets are not double stacked. Loads that are
received double stacked may incur an unloading chargeback. The chargeback amount will be
deducted from your invoice.
 When shipping multiple POs, we ask that you make every effort to load by PO number, keeping
all POs in close proximity to facilitate ease of count confirmation at the DC receiving dock.
 Carriers typically allow two hours load time per trailer. Detention time begins after the second
hour. The vendor must make every effort to load the trailer within two hours. In cases of extreme
detention, the vendor may be subject to a chargeback to cover the resulting detention charges. If
applicable, this charge would be deducted from your invoice.
 Any add-on cartons to the shipment must be either emailed to [email protected]
Nordstrom pays for full Valuation Insurance on all volume shipments. Do not put a release value
on the bill of lading. Bills of lading must be marked with the designated DC number and address.
 The shipper must apply a numbered seal to all loads and this number must be noted on the bill of
lading. Failure to properly seal the trailer transfers all shortage liability to the shipper.
If you have any questions about volume shipments, email [email protected] .
Declaration of Value
24B
Do not declare value on surface or air shipments, except in the following cases:
 When shipping Jewelry or Watches via the US Mail system.
When shipping Jewelry or Watches to departments 89 and 589. See: Jewelry/Watch Shipping
Procedures (in Section 3: Special Handling).

Section 2: Shipment Preparation

Palletization of Freight
25B
Nordstrom DOES NOT require palletization of freight being shipped on a Volume Load, or through our
consolidators Gilbert, NorCon, and CTE.
Nordstrom REQUIRES the palletization of cartons when shipping on LTL carriers direct to Nordstrom
DC’s. This does NOT apply to shipments to Nordstrom Consolidators CTE, Gilbert, and Norcon. We
recommend you consult with the carrier about palletizing prior to arranging a pickup.
Follow these instructions when palletizing freight:
Shipments direct to Nordstrom DC’s via Nordstrom carriers UPS Freight, XPO Logistics, Oak Harbor
Freight, and BTX Global:
 All cartons on the pallet must be plainly visible to allow for accurate carton count.
 DO NOT mix cartons for different DC’s on the same pallet
 Stack the heaviest weight cartons on the bottom row
 Use your best judgment based on burst strength of the cartons being stacked and overall stability
of the pallet when building the pallet. Keep in mind the door height of the truck you’ll be loading
the pallet onto, do not stack cartons on pallet higher than 6 feet/72”.
 After carrier has counted the cartons on the pallet, shrink-wrap the pallet using heavyweight film
wrapped as tightly as possible to ensure stability, especially including any single cartons on the
top row. Use clear plastic film.
 Nordstrom requires its carriers to sign for cartons. If a carrier is unable to confirm the number of
cartons tendered for any reason (i.e. due to carton stacking method or lack of visibility for shrinkwrapped pallets), shipper must either resolve the conditions that prevent the carrier from an
accurate count, or accept responsibility for any shortages upon delivery to Nordstrom.
 Absolutely do not mark or note the Bill of Lading: ‘x pallets said to contain y number of cartons.’
If freight is tendered to a Nordstrom carrier in a ‘Said-To-Contain’ manner and the correct
numbers of pallets are received, all carton shortages will be treated as a vendor shortshipment.
 Your Bill of Lading must contain a total carton count by DC, and the number of pallets by DC that
are being shipped. Shippers must require the driver to sign for the total carton and pallet count by
DC that they are receiving for all live-loaded shipments.
 You must list the pallet weight separately on the BOL by DC, i.e. ‘2 pallets, 50 lb. pallet weight’.
Shipments via Nordstrom carriers NorCon or Gilbert (if carrier approves palletized pickup) :
 All cartons on the pallet must be plainly visible to allow for accurate carton count.
 Cartons should be palletized BY DC for the majority of your shipments. A very limited exception is
provided for the following situations: If there is only a small quantity of cartons left after palletizing
by DC, the last pallet may contain mixed DC’s provided it is clearly labeled as ‘MIXED DCS’.
 Stack the heaviest weight cartons on the bottom row
 Loading the pallet more than six feet high is not recommended; use your best judgment based on
burst strength of the cartons being stacked and overall stability of the pallet when building the
pallet.
 After carrier has counted the cartons on the pallet, shrink-wrap the pallet using heavyweight film
wrapped as tightly as possible to ensure stability, especially including any single cartons on the
top row. Use clear plastic film.
 Nordstrom requires its carriers to sign for cartons. If a carrier is unable to confirm the number of
cartons tendered for any reason (i.e. due to carton stacking method or lack of visibility for shrinkwrapped pallets), shipper must either resolve the conditions that prevent the carrier from an
accurate count, or accept responsibility for any shortages upon delivery to Nordstrom.
 Absolutely do not mark or note the Bill of Lading: ‘x pallets said to contain y number of cartons.’
If freight is tendered to a Nordstrom carrier in a ‘Said To Contain’ manner and the correct
numbers of pallets are received, all carton shortages will be treated as a vendor shortshipment.

Jewelry and Watch Shipping Procedures
35B
Nordstrom Purchase Orders that consist of jewelry and watch items destined for departments 89 and 589
which require Declared Value protection based on the invoice value at the time of shipment. Shipments
for these departments may be sent via UPS or prepaid via USPS (United States Postal Service) per
below instructions.
Shipments destined for departments 28, 30, 35, 64, 161 and 484 are exempt from these special handling
procedures and should be shipped following our standard routing process (see applicable Origin State
Page).
Shipping Jewelry and Watches via UPS
When shipping jewelry or watches via UPS, it is very important that the correct packaging, labeling and
account number be used. All of these instructions are designed to ensure that your shipment arrives at its
destination without loss, damage or delay. Shippers must follow these instructions exactly in order to be
reimbursed for lost or damaged packages. Failure to do so will result in the shipper being liable for any
loss or damage incurred with the shipment.
UPS High-Value Waiver
When shipping on Nordstrom’s High-Value 3rd Party UPS account number you must first have completed
the UPS High-Value Waiver process in order to be covered under the UPS High-Value liability policy. This
process is conducted by a local UPS security team and involves a review of the shipper’s packaging and
handling process, and other metrics that impact security. This process can take two-three weeks to
complete, so it is very important to get started on it right away. Contact your local UPS account
representative to arrange.
Important: Any loss or damage to merchandise shipped on Nordstrom’s High-Value account,
without the shipper having completed the High Value Waiver process could result in the shipper
being responsible for the loss.
Nordstrom Routing Guide
Section 3: Special Handling
16
Creating a UPS shipment






You must create your UPS shipment on a UPS system like World-Ship, I-Ship, UPS.com, or other
UPS-Package-Level Detail compliant shipping system, and use a system-generated shipping
label on each carton. Hand-written UPS shipping labels are not permitted, and if used will result in
the shipper being liable for any loss, damage or delay.
An ‘end of day’ manifest upload must be performed at least daily, to make sure that your
shipment details are uploaded to UPS. Failing to do so could result in delayed visibility to tracking
information for your packages, or denial of declared value coverage by UPS in the event of loss
or damage. Check with UPS if you have any questions about this process, and to confirm that
your system is compatible.
The Nordstrom PO number you are shipping must be entered in one of the Reference Fields.
The Nordstrom department number, found on your purchase order, must also be entered in one
of the reference fields, i.e. ‘Dept. 89’, or ‘Dept 589’ etc.
Do not include PO. number or department number on the same line as the consignee
name/address of your shipping label. This information belongs in the reference fields as
described above
For packages that will contain items with a declared value of $1,000 or more, it is recommended
that you create a duplicate shipping label per carton by using the ‘reprint label’ function of your
shipping system. This duplicate label will be applied to the inner carton (see ‘Packaging
Procedures’ below) as extra protection in case the label on the outer shipping carton is somehow
damaged or removed. IMPORTANT: Do NOT create a new shipping label for this task—make
sure you are only reprinting (or photocopying) an existing label.
Nordstrom UPS 3rd Party Account Number
Unless shipping pre-paid, you must use the Nordstrom High-Value Third-Party UPS inbound account
number for all Nordstrom shipments to Nordstrom DC’s and stores. Contact Nordstrom at
[email protected] to receive the correct UPS account number.
Please provide the following information when requesting the Nordstrom Account number:
 Vendor name
 Shipper name (if different than vendor name)
 Nordstrom PO number that you will be shipping
 State in your message that you are a Fine Jewelry shipper
 Very Important: If you are shipping an N-Direct Drop Shipment, please state this
information as well as these shipments require the use of a different account number.
Nordstrom will respond with the account number as soon as possible, but not later than the next business
day. This account number must be used to bill freight and declared value charges third-party; ‘Collect’ or
‘Bill Receiver’ options will not be accepted, and will result in charges being billed directly to the shipper by
UPS.
Declared Value Guidelines (for shipments to Nordstrom stores or DC’s)
It is very important that all shipments for Fine Jewelry departments destined for a Nordstrom DC or store
be shipped with values declared per below table.
IMPORTANT: Nordstrom will not reimburse shippers for loss or damaged shipments for which our
Declared Value guidelines were not followed.
Invoice Value per Package
$100-$299
$300-$1,999
$2,000-$4,999
$5,000-$50,000
Value to Declare
Do not declare value
Actual invoice value
$5,000
Actual invoice value
$50,000 is the maximum allowable declared value per package
If the invoice value is more than $50,000 per package, split the shipment between as many packages as
required to keep the maximum declared value per package at $50,000 or less. If the shipment cannot be
split (i.e. one item valued at more than $50,000) please contact [email protected] for instructions on
how to ship.
Nordstrom Routing Guide
Section 3: Special Handling
17
Customer-Owned Goods/Repaired Items
Declare the total value of the merchandise (as represented by the originating store’s documentation)
including any additional value added by the shipper (i.e. updated setting, etc) for every package.
Note: For any package with declared value of $1,000 or more, a Proof of Pickup document will print along
with your shipping label. This document MUST be signed by your UPS driver upon pickup. The shipper
should also request that the driver scan each of your packages at time of pickup so that UPS will receive
a pickup scan for these packages as soon as the pickup is completed.

Packaging Procedures
All jewelry and watch shipments sent to Nordstrom via UPS must be double boxed to ensure that they are
securely packaged. Please follow these shipping and packaging procedures exactly:
 Place the jewelry and/or watch item(s) in a plastic bag.
 Place the plastic bag in a UPS Small Box or other sturdy corrugated cardboard carton, taping the
bag to the bottom of the carton to prevent any rattling or shifting inside the box. Mark the top of
this inner box with the correct Nordstrom store number, PO number and department number.
 If you created a duplicate shipping label (as recommended in ‘Creating a UPS Shipment’ above),
apply the extra label to the inner carton---this will allow UPS to deliver the carton should the
shipping label on the outer carton become damaged or lost.
 Verify the shipping value and contents per your company’s security procedures and seal the box.
 Place the small box inside a UPS medium or large box or other sturdy corrugated cardboard
carton, adding packing material as needed to prevent the inner box from moving during transit,
and then seal the outer box.
 Attach the UPS shipping label to the top of the outer carton.
Carton Markings
The outside of the shipping carton must not provide any indication (including label or brand
names) that the shipment may contain jewelry, watches or other high value items.
In addition to the shipping label (see ‘Creating a UPS Shipment’ above), each carton should be marked
with the following information:
 Nordstrom PO number
 Nordstrom store number
 Nordstrom Department Number (i.e. ‘D 89’, ‘D 589’ etc.)
 Write on the carton the month shipped, as the month number with a circle around it. (i.e. a
package shipped in December would be represented by a circled number ‘12’)
Do NOT use a UPS Drop-Box or UPS Store for shipment. You must contact UPS and ask for a pickup
if you do not already have a daily pickup with UPS.
Nordstrom Direct Drop Shipments
If you are shipping in the Nordstrom Direct Drop Ship program, please contact the N-Direct team at
[email protected] for information about declared value and service levels for these orders.
Important: You will be shipping on a different UPS account number than the one used for shipments to
DC’s or Stores. Contact your N-Direct Drop Ship team or [email protected] to receive the correct
account number for drop-ship orders.
Shippers/vendors are required to track all Nordstrom fine-jewelry shipments and to obtain full
proof of delivery information
If you are unable to confirm delivery of any package within 24 hours (excluding weekends/holidays) after
the scheduled delivery date, you or your designated representative must report the package missing on
UPS.com. UPS will conduct a search for the package, and if the package cannot be located and
delivered, they will send the shipper a Damage/Loss Notification Claim letter, which allows the shipper to
begin the claims process (see below).
Shipper must also notify the Nordstrom buyer of the missing cartons by tracking number, with
[email protected] on copy.
Filing a Claim for Loss or Damage on UPS.com
The shipper is responsible for filing all loss/damage claims with UPS on UPS.com.
If your package fails to deliver within 24 hours (excluding weekends/holidays) after the ‘expected delivery
date’ (found in UPS.com Tracking), follow these instructions:

FREIGHT INVOICING AND INQUIRIES
3B
Freight Invoicing and Reimbursement
36B
All shipments must be sent to Nordstrom ‘Collect’, or ‘Bill Third Party’. There are specific requirements for
UPS small package shipments (see UPS carrier pages for details).
Use of any carrier or shipping method (routing) not specifically authorized in this guide or by Nordstrom
Traffic will result in the supplier paying all transportation charges, regardless of whether or not Nordstrom
might have incurred lower or higher transportation costs with the unauthorized shipping method.
Nordstrom does not reimburse vendors for prepaid shipments sent via carriers not authorized by
Nordstrom Traffic or Nordstrom Corporate Transportation offices.
Nordstrom will not accept any accessorial charges from carriers not authorized in this guide, even if the
freight charges are prepaid. These charges must all be billed to the shipper—consult with your carrier
about how to correctly set up your BOL to have any of these accessorial charges billed to your account.
If you accidentally ship ‘Prepaid’ instead of ‘Collect’ or ‘Bill Third Party using one of our authorized
carriers and you wish to have the charges re-billed to Nordstrom, please contact [email protected]
and provide the following information:
 Shipper name
 Vendor name/vendor number
 Carrier used
 Pro number/tracking number(s)
 Ship Date
 Request to re-bill to Nordstrom
 We will contact you within 2 business days regarding your request
Note: Re-bill requests must be made within 60 days of ship date. Requests made later than 60
days will be denied.
If at any time you are not clear about which carrier to use or have any other questions, email us at
[email protected].
Freight Chargeback Inquiries
37B
Please note that all freight chargeback inquiries must be made within twelve months of the shipping date,
in order to ensure the fastest possible resolution of any disputes, we encourage suppliers to avoid
accumulating inquiries for monthly, quarterly, seasonal or annual review and to submit any questions
promptly, preferably within 60 days of the shipping date.
A Freight Chargeback Statement listing chargeback reason(s) and itemized shipment information for each
chargeback are emailed to vendors every Wednesday after it has been deducted from your check. These
statements are emailed using address on file with our Nordstrom Supplier Offset Fees team. If you are
currently not in receipt of these emails or you wish additional contacts receive this information, please
email [email protected] and we can update our records.
If you still have questions about your freight chargebacks after receiving the Freight Chargeback
Statement, you may send your inquiry along with the Freight Chargeback Statement and supporting
documentation (which may include a copy of the signed Bill of Lading, buyer email, your Freight Contract
Agreement, PO showing the freight allowance, etc.) to the Traffic department at this Ship To DC for your
PO. The DC name and email address is listed in the upper right hand corner of the Freight Chargeback
Statement.
Inquiries on POs shipped more than twelve months ago and/or submitted without supporting
documentation will not be addressed.

Refusals and Related Charges
38B
This section outlines the supplier’s liabilities and responsibilities when Nordstrom refuses a non-compliant
shipment or Purchase Order.
Reasons for Shipment/Purchase Order Refusals
Some of the reasons shipments and/or Purchase Orders may be refused by Nordstrom are:
 The PO number on the Bill of Lading or package label is missing or invalid.
NOTE: On shipments containing multiple PO numbers, a single invalid or missing PO number
may result in refusal of the entire shipment.
 The Purchase Order and/or shipment is non-compliant and has been refused because:
o The order was shipped outside the shipping window, either prior to the Earliest Ship Date
or after the Latest Ship Date
o The order has been cancelled, is not on file or is not activated in our system. (Please be
sure to verify all Purchase Orders before shipping.)
o The order contains unauthorized substitutions, overages or defective goods.
o The shipment was delivered to the wrong Ship to DC.
o The shipment was sent Collect on Delivery (COD), even when shipped via UPS and/or
Parcel Post.
o Your Prepaid (house carrier/non-routing guide carrier) or Hand Carry deliveries/POs were
shipped after the Latest Ship Date.
o Your carrier did not pre-schedule a delivery appointment at the Ship to DC 24 hours prior
to delivery.
o Your carrier is not the Nordstrom authorized carrier identified in this manual and the
goods were shipped after the Latest Ship Date.
Fees Assessed for Refused Shipments
When a shipment or order is refused, the supplier will be held liable for the following:
 Return freight fees
 $100.00 handling fee
 Inbound freight charges
 Any charges incurred due to the refused shipment (i.e., redelivery and storage charges)
If a shipment qualifies for refusal but is nevertheless accepted by Nordstrom, the supplier may still be
held liable for the above charges or fees via freight offset charges.
Refused Shipment Handling and Liability
Refused goods routed through Gilbert, NorCon or CTE (Consolidators) may be held on hand at the
Consolidator’s facility. The Consolidators will notify the shipper whose name appears on the bill of lading
if the shipment or order is refused or undeliverable. Storage charges are accumulated until the
Consolidator receives both disposition instructions in writing and payment of charges from the shipper.
All refused goods received at a Nordstrom facility will be returned to the vendor at the vendor’s expense.
Return Authorization stickers will not be used on refused merchandise. If the vendor chooses not to
receive this returned refused merchandise, the merchandise may be destroyed, salvaged through
jobbers, or sold in our off price channels.
Supplier bears full liability for loss or damage on refused shipments resulting from non-compliant
shipments or Purchase Orders, and improper shipping, packaging or labeling.
Recalls
Only a Nordstrom merchant or buyer is authorized to recall a refused shipment or PO. The Nordstrom
merchant or buyer must contact the appropriate Ship to DC Traffic Office in order to initiate any recall
action.

Air Shipments
First-Time BTX shippers, Air service levels:
Pursuant to TSA security directives, BTX must verify first-time shippers as ‘known shippers’ as defined in
the TSA/IACSSP prior to any air shipping activity.
First-time shippers with no pending air shipments:
Shippers may pro-actively contact BTX prior to having any pending shipments in order to confirm status
and/or begin the known shipper process. The shipper must be prepared to provide their full corporate
information and Dun & Bradstreet Duns number, if available. If the shipper is a 3PL or other logistics
company, a valid Indirect Air Carrier (IAC) number will be needed prior to any air shipping activity.
First-time shippers with pending air shipments:
First-time shippers who have not previously verified known shipper status with BTX (as described above),
and have a pending air shipment for Nordstrom, must contact BTX at least 2 business days prior to
desired pickup date in order for BTX to begin the Known-Shipper verification process.
NOTE: If BTX is not able to verify the shipper’s status in time to achieve the required ship date
and service level, BTX will work with Nordstrom Corporate Logistics to determine a shipping
alternative. Nordstrom Corporate Logistics will coordinate this effort with the shipper.
‘Known Shippers’
Once the shipper’s status has been confirmed by BTX as ‘known’, the shipper may proceed directly to the
following standard process in order to book shipments with BTX.
Note: any shipper name or address change will result in the need for a re-verification of the known
shipper status.

dimensions for the same PO. list the number of cartons per each carton size.
Example:
P.O. 12345678, 10 cartons 18’ x 14’ x 12’, 120 lb
P.O. 12345678, 5 cartons 16’ x 14’ x 10’, 75 lb

Tendering Freight
 Shipper must tender freight to the carrier by Air Waybill. Carrier will sign the waybill for total
number of cartons. Shipper may not tender waybills as ‘STC’, nor will the carrier pick up any
waybill that is not counted by carton and signed.
 Shrink-wrapping should be done only after driver has physically counted the cartons on pallets.
Ground Shipments
Ground service level, shipments of more than 8 pallets per BOL destination per day
When tendering shipments to BTX for Ground service level, the shipper does not need to be a ‘Known
Shipper’ as described in the Air Shipments section above. Use the same carrier contact information as
described above, and provide the carrier with a Bill of Lading per DC destination, containing the following
information:






Shipper Company Name, address, contact and phone number
Consignee (typically a Nordstrom DC) company name and full address
Nordstrom purchase order number, number of cartons per purchase order, and the weight of
those cartons (please include carton dimensions if available)
Freight terms: Collect
Driver is required to count and sign for individual cartons and the pallet count being picked
up. ‘STC’ (said-to-contain) shipments are not allowed, and any shortages/damages reported will
be the responsibility of the shipper if a ‘STC’ shipment is tendered to carrier.
The MAXIMUM number of pallets per BOL for this program is 13. Any shipments requiring
more than 13 pallets per destination must be sent to the Volume Load Desk

(nordstromsuppliercanada.com) and require a different UPS account than the one used for
US shipments.

UPS Small Package (con’t.)
UPS General Instructions
 You must use an authorized 3rd Party account number to bill third party to Nordstrom.
 In order to transmit electronic Package Level Detail (PLD) for each shipment, you must use a
UPS shipping system, such as World Ship, UPS Internet, or a UPS compatible shipping system.
 It is important to complete the ‘End of Day’ process when using UPS systems like World Ship at
least once per day for your shipment data to be transmitted to UPS. This is a critical step that is
needed to ensure your packages are shipped and received without delay. Failure to perform this
task could result in a freight chargeback due to incorrect ship date being shown on the tracking
information reported by UPS to Nordstrom.
 The use of hand-written air bills is not authorized. Your shipment could be delayed or
returned unless system-generated shipping labels are created using a UPS system or
UPS-compatible shipping systems.
 The date your UPS shipment is created is the date that is transmitted to Nordstrom as the actual
ship date. Keep this in mind if you are creating UPS shipments prior to actual ship date, as it
could result in a charge back if the reported ship date falls outside the PO ship window.
 All packages must have the Nordstrom PO number (example: ‘12345678’) clearly entered in the
‘Reference 1’ field of the shipping system and appear on the shipping label. You will not be able
to process your shipment via UPS Shipping System without this information.
 If you do not have a daily pickup from UPS: When preparing a shipment on UPS World Ship
system, and scheduling a pickup for your packages on line, only request a pickup for the first
package you process. DO NOT request more than one pickup per day.
 The PO number and the department number must be clearly written near the label on all
packages. Please be sure that the carrier shipping label does not cover up the GS1-128 carton
label.
 Please provide accurate carton count by size (dimensions) when creating your shipment.
 We suggest that all small package shippers track each shipment to delivery.

Store/DC Look-Up Process
 Nordstrom sends the store ordering locations on the EDI 850 SDQ segment
 In most cases, you may use the following list to locate the correct Ship To DC for the store(s)
listed on the SDQ segment
 However, in some cases we may ask that you ship to a DC other than the one indicated on the
Store/DC list. If a DC shipping location appears in the N1 segment that follows the SDQ
segment of the EDI 850, you must ship to that DC rather than to the DC usually associated with
the store ordering locations
 Vendors shipping to Nordstrom departments 87 (European Designer Sportswear Collection) and
614 should review the Designer section on page 14 in order to insure proper routing
 Vendors shipping to Department 86 (American Designer Sportswear Collection) should follow
the standard routing for their State as found in the Store / DC List and State Pages
Nordstrom Product Group Orders
 Nordstrom sends the Store/DC combinations in the purchase order
Store 919 (Rack Bulk Pre-Allocation Store)
 Store 919 is a mock store used as a place holder for Rack Bulk POs to place hold units prior to
store allocation
 If store 919 is on a PO, please do not ship until the PO has been store allocated; if the start ship
window of your PO is within two weeks and you have not been notified of the store allocation,
please contact the buyer for the PO to request allocation
 DC 299 is used as the default DC for store 919 however please note that Rack Bulk can ship
from any DC. Please follow the shipping locations once the PO has been allocated on your PO
