General Terms and Conditions of Carriage
18. Redirection
of Deliveries Service. Upon request, ICS Courier will
provide redirection of deliveries service for 90 days for a prescribed
fee. This service may be renewed for one additional 90-day period at an
additional charge. 19. Packaging.
All
shipments shall be enclosed in defect-free cartons or packaging that are
properly sealed and secured and do not use any string or rope on their
exterior. The contents of any shipment must be held firmly in place by the
interior packaging system, which must protect such contents from normal
external forces such as the pressure exerted by stacking other shipments
on top of it. ICS Courier reserves the right to refuse to accept any
shipment that it deems, in its sole discretion, is inappropriately
packaged and/or will not withstand standard handling and transportation
conditions. 20. Proper
Labelling. Each shipment must display a
properly secured ICS Courier shipping label that has been correctly
completed. All previous delivery address labels and markings must be
covered or removed. Improper labelling may result in the shipment being
delayed or lost. A shipment consisting of more than one package or piece
must have each package or piece individually numbered (eg., marked as
being “1 of 2”, “2 of 2”) and display its full delivery address and
barcode tracking number where applicable. Any shipment containing liquids
or fragile items must include an orientation ”up" arrow located on all
sides of the package. In addition, packages containing liquid must be
labelled "SPILLABLE" and those containing glass or other breakable
material must be labelled "FRAGILE". 21. Accuracy of
Information. The Shipper is responsible for
ensuring that the correct information respecting the number of pieces,
weights, account numbers and Consignee’s address for any shipment is set
out on the Waybill. ICS Courier may correct errors and additional charges
may apply. 22. Account
Number. All Waybills require a valid
ICS Courier Account Number. A shipment may be delayed or returned if ICS
Courier determines that the Account Number included on the Waybill is
incorrect or such account is not in good standing. 23. Holidays.
No
shipment will be accepted or delivered on any day that is a Saturday,
Sunday or statutory holiday in the jurisdiction where such shipment is to
be accepted or delivered. 24. Weight
Limitations. ICS Courier will not accept
any piece that exceeds 30 kilograms unless otherwise specifically agreed
by ICS Courier in writing. ICS Courier charges according to actual weight
and reserves the right to reweigh shipments. The Shipper acknowledges that
any variance between the shipment’s declared weight and actual weight as
determined by ICS Courier will result in an adjustment to the rate charged
and the party to be billed agrees to pay same. All weights shall be
referenced in grams or kilograms. 25. Shipping
Restrictions. ICS Courier does not provide
service to post office boxes, or rural route or residential addresses, nor
do we provide temperature-controlled courier services.
