When an interested client/customer approaches Rolling Cargo Limited for our services the following terms and conditions shall automatically apply:

• Liability  on goods

Rolling Cargo Ltd. will make every reasonable effort to deliver the Shipment according to Rolling Cargo regular delivery schedules, but these schedules are not binding and do not form part of the contract. Rolling Cargo is not liable for any damages or loss caused by delay, but for certain Shipments, Shipper may be able to claim limited delay compensation under the arrangement of the company.

Rolling cargo’s liability is strictly limited to direct loss and damage to a Shipment only and to the per kilogram limits. All other types of loss or damage are excluded (including but not limited to lost profits, income, interest, future business), whether such loss or damage is special or indirect, and even if the risk of such loss or damage was brought to Rolling Cargo’s attention.

Rolling Cargo is not liable for any loss or damage arising out of circumstances beyond its control. These include but are not limited to electrical or magnetic damage to, or erasure of, electronic or photographic images, data or recordings; any defect or characteristic related to the nature of the Shipment, even if known to Rolling Cargo Ltd.; any act or omission by a person not employed or contracted by Rolling Cargo – e.g. Shipper, Receiver, third party, customs or other government official; “Force Majeure” – e.g. earthquake, cyclone, storm, flood, fog, war, plane crash, embargo, riot, civil commotion, or industrial action that have arisen out of the reach of powers of Rolling Cargo Ltd.

Receiver may be offered alternative delivery options such as delivery on another day, no signature required, redirection or collection at a Rolling Cargo Service Point. Shipper may exclude some delivery options on request made in advance to the company.

If the Shipment is deemed to be unacceptable or it has been undervalued for customs purposes, or Receiver cannot be reasonably identified or located, or Receiver refuses delivery or to pay Customs Duties or other Shipment charges, Rolling Cargo shall use reasonable efforts to return the Shipment to Shipper at Shipper’s cost, failing which the Shipment may be released, disposed of or sold without incurring any liability whatsoever to Shipper or anyone else, with the proceeds applied against Customs Duties, Shipment charges and related administrative costs with the balance of the proceeds of a sale to be returned to Shipper. Rolling Cargo Ltd. shall have the right to destroy any Shipment which any law prevents Rolling Cargo from returning to Shipper as well as any Shipment of Dangerous Goods.
