| Terms & Conditions of Carriage
1. Conditions of Carriage
These are the various restrictions and conditions which limit and
govern the extent of the service PSG Transportation offers. It also
explains what the consequences are of the shipper presenting
packages for carriage which do not meet these requirements.
(a) Service Restrictions and Conditions PSG Transportation do not
offer carriage of packages which do not comply with the restrictions
in paragraphs (i) to (iv).
(i) Packages must not contain any of the prohibited articles
including (but not limited to), money or negotiable instruments
(such as cheques, bills of exchange, bonds, savings books, share
certificates or other securities), firearms and dangerous goods.
(ii) Packages must not contain goods which might endanger
human or animal life, export or import of which is prohibited by
applicable law.
(iii) The shipper shall be responsible for the accuracy and
completeness of the particulars inserted in the waybill and for
ensuring that all packages set out adequate contact details for the
shipper and receiver of the package and that they are so packed,
marked and labeled, their contents so described and classified and
are accompanied by such documentation as may (in each case) be
necessary to make them suitable for transportation and to comply
with the requirements of the applicable law.
(iv) The shipper declares that all packages presented for
carriage under these terms have been prepared in secure premises, by
him (in the case of an individual shipper) or by reliable staff
employed by him and have been protected against unauthorised
interference during their preparation.
(b) The shipper will be responsible for the reasonable costs and
expenses of PSG Transportation (including storage), for such losses,
taxes and customs duties as PSG Transportation may suffer and for
all claims made against PSG Transportation because a package does
not meet any of the restrictions, conditions or representations
above or because of any refusal or suspension of carriage or return
of a package or shipment by PSG Transportation which is allowed by
these terms.
(c) PSG Transportation will not meet any losses which the shipper
may suffer arising out of carrying packages which do not meet the
restrictions or conditions set out in the paragraph above and, if
PSG Transportation does suspend carriage for a reason allowed by
these terms, the shipper shall not be entitled to any refund on the
carriage charges it has paid.
(d) PSG Transportation are not licensed or insured for the
conveyance of livestock. Shippers must make alternative
arrangements for transportation of any animals leaving or returning
to the United Kingdom.
2. Customs Clearance
2.1 Where a package requires customs clearance, it is the shipper's
responsibility to provide complete and accurate documentation.
2.2 If any duties, taxes, penalties, charges or expenses are imposed
or incurred as a result of any action by the customs authorities or
as a result of any failure by the shipper or the receiver to provide
correct documentation or any permits or licences required in
connection with carriage, the receiver will initially be charged by
PSG Transportation with payment and, if PSG Transportation cannot
collect payment from the receiver on request, it will be the
shipper's responsibility to pay the amount in question direct to the
Customs Authority and to collect the goods from the Customs
Authority themselves.
Goods packed by the customer are insured only for total loss i.e.
theft or traffic accident as these goods have not been inspected
with regard to damage by a member of this company.
