Control No. 21-00030 Except as otherwise provided on individual web rate pages (TLIs), when, due to no fault, negligence or error on the part of the Carrier, an LCL Shipment or Vehicle is held at Carrier's nominated origin or destination CFS, warehouse or terminal beyond the Free Time specified herein because: 1. Shipper's instructions, documentation, clearance, release, or Cargo markings (See Rule 2.9) have not been provided or received; or 2. Cargo is held at the request of a Shipper; or 3. Cargo is held because of Consignee's refusal or inability to accept it; or 4. Cargo is held while awaiting Consignee's delivery instructions, customs clearance, or import documentation; or 5. Caribtrans cannot locate Consignee; or 6 of any reason not ascribable to the Carrier, and as a result the Cargo remains in Carrier's nominated CFS, warehouse or terminal, beyond the specified Free Time, such LCL shipment or Vehicle will be SBJ to the terms and provisions named herein and will be SBJ to the per Diem STORAGE CHARGES (STOR) provided. STOR Charges shall shall be in additional to all other applicable charges. a. For purposes of this Rule, except as otherwise provided, the term "Shipper" shall mean the Shipper, the Consignee or any person acting for or on behalf of the Shipper or Consignee. b. Per Diem storage Charges are applicable when cargo is held in Caribtrans' possession beyond the applicable origin or destination free time period and is a charge relating to use of the terminal or storage location. c. When a shipment is held beyond the allotted Free Time due to a request by the Shipper, the Shipment will begin to incur per diem STOR Charges on the day following the expiration of Free Time (as shown below). Free Time will commence as of the day Cargo is received at origin CFS/terminal or storage location, regardless of when Shipper requests Cargo is to be held. d. In the event Shipper fails to provide the proper export documentation and/or proper marking by the end of the allotted Free Time, Caribtrans will assess storage Charges, following the expiration of the appropriate Free Time as indicated, until documentation and release is received by Caribtrans or until Shipper provides proper cargo marking instructions as required in in Rule 2.9. e. Per Diem storage Charges, when applicable, will be assessed per each calendar day, or fraction thereof, up to date of sailing but not including sailing day. f. Caribtrans will refuse to deliver or release any Cargo which has accrued storage Charges if such Charges have not been paid. Shipper may contract for delivery, or receive the cargo at Caribtrans' terminal facility, when, and only when, the per diem storage Charges have been paid in full. g. Perishable goods, or goods which are susceptible to damage through temperature changes or other causes incident to storage, will be accepted for storage solely at Shipper's/Consignee's risk and Shipper/Consignee shall indemnify and hold Caribtrans harmless from any and all liability and expense for such damages that might result from storage conditions unless such damage is caused by the negligence of Caribtrans. h. After the expiration of the allowed Free Time provided herein, Caribtrans is under no obligation to store Cargo at its nominated CFS location and such Cargo may be considered abandoned and removed from Caribtrans' facility. i. Caribtrans will notify the Shipper, on or before, the date storage Charges begin to accrue. Should Caribtrans fail to meet this obligation, Caribtrans shall waive storage charges up to the day of notification. j. REFUSED OR UNCLAIMED CARGO: 1. If cargo cannot be delivered because of the Consignee's refusal or inability to accept it or because Caribtrans cannot locate Consignee, Caribtrans will make a diligent effort to notify the Shipper/Consignor accordingly. 2. If Caribtrans is not given satisfactory disposition instructions by the Shipper/Consignor, or if satisfactory financial guarantees for payment of all charges due are not made, after Caribtrans has provided notice of Cargo's status as unclaimed or refused, within six months of cargo receipt at Caribtrans' facility, Caribtrans will consider the cargo abandoned and it will be removed from Caribtrans' facility for disposal. k.
