  • Accurately estimate the Goods’ weight within 5% accuracy.

5)      Charges:

  • The Consignor is responsible for all proper charges, including transport, storage, administrative fees, and interest on overdue payments at 16.5% annually. Debt collection fees, at 7.5% of the collected amount, will be charged to the Consignor for overdue payments.

6)      Cancellations:

We recognize that unforeseen circumstances may lead to the need for cancellations. Please take note of our cancellation policy outlined below:

We strive to minimize such occurrences and will make every effort to communicate any challenges that may prevent us from fulfilling our service obligations. This policy is designed to account for the resources and preparations involved in scheduling and mobilizing our transportation services.

 We kindly request that you notify us promptly in the event of cancellations to minimize any inconvenience.
