Consequential Loss
Our terms reject any liability for
consequential loss, either specifically or by omission,
except for a liability up to a maximum sum represented
by the freight charged for the particular consignment.
It is not possible to insure against consequential loss,
nor could it be limited to bear any relation to the freight
charge or the value of the shipment. Delivery delay
resulting in down time is specifically excluded. We
endeavour to meet scheduled and specific delivery
times, however there are numerous potential reasons
including (but not exclusively) human error, poor
weather, mechanical failure, customs problems and other
factors beyond our control, which may delay a delivery.
We do not therefore guarantee delivery or transit times,
and cannot accept liability in the event of a late
delivery, or any other form of consequential loss.
Claims
Claims are settled by agreement, and
it is expressly stated that claims against a carrier
cannot be off set against freight charges owed to that
carrier.
