Please allow approximately one week for Garrett technicians to examine and repair your
detector after they receive it, plus another week for return shipping to you. All equipment
will be returned UPS or parcel post unless written authorization is given by you to ship
collect by air parcel post, UPS Blue (air) or air freight.
MIND YOUR MANNERS
Filling holes and obeying no trespassing signs are but two requirements of a dedicated metal
detector hobbyist. A sincere request that Charles Garrett makes to every user of one of his
detectors is that each place searched be left in a better condition than it was found.
Thousands of individuals and organizations have adopted this formal Metal Detector Operators
Code of Ethics:
I will respect private and public property, all historical and archaeological sites and will do
no metal detecting on these lands without proper permission.
I will keep informed on and obey all laws, regulations and rules governing federal, state and
local public lands.
I will aid law enforcement officials whenever possible.
I will cause no willful damage to property of any kind, including fence, signs and buildings
and will always fill holes I dig.
I will not destroy property, buildings or the remains of ghost towns and other deserted
structures.
I will not leave litter or uncovered items lying around. I will carry all trash and dug targets
with me when I leave each search area.
I will observe the Golden Rule, using good outdoor manners and conducting myself at all
times in a manner which will add to the stature and public image of all people engaged in
the field of metal detection.
WARNING!
Any metal detector may discover underground power lines, explosives or other items which
when struck could cause personal injury. When searching for treasure with your detector,
observe these precautions:
Do not hunt in an area where you believe there may be shallowly buried underground
electric lines or pipes.
Do not hunt in a military zone where bombs or other explosives may be buried.
