Note: Specific shipment terms, liability limits, and insurance options for individual bookings are governed by the separate bill of lading or service agreement issued at the time of shipment, which takes precedence over this general policy for that transaction.
Fees for our services are based on the rates in effect at the time of booking and may include additional charges for customs duties, fuel surcharges, storage, or special handling. All fees are due according to the payment terms provided at booking or invoicing. Late or unpaid balances may result in service suspension or the assessment of additional charges.
