The application of Over Height cargo charges will be
governed by the following provisions and conditions:
a. CARGO TENDERED TO CARRIER IN/ON OCEAN CONTAINERS:
Cargo, subject to the rates, charges and provisions
named in any governed NSA, when tendered to Carrier already
loaded in/on ocean containers or transporting equipment
will NOT be subject to any Over Height Charges.
However, Carrier reserves the right to refuse to accept
any shipment loaded in/on a COL or SOL container that
contains pieces, packages or units which are not wholly
loaded within the inside of a single closed container
and/or which overhang any side of the Flatbed, or
Platform Container used to transport the cargo.
Further, unless prior booking and special arrangements
have been made with and accepted by the Carrier, Carrier
will NOT provide COL Flat Rack, Open Top or similar
equipment to handle cargo that cannot be loaded wholly
within the bounds of a single container, or accept such
cargo loaded in/on SOL equipment. Any fines or
penalties imposed as a result of the misapplication or
misstatement of actual cargo dimensions on the B/L
and/or other Shipping Documents will be for the account
of the cargo.
b. CARGO TENDERED TO CARRIER IN A BREAKBULK, LOOSE OR
UNCONTAINERIZED FORM:
Except as otherwise provided in individual NSAs, cargo, subject
to the rates, charges and provisions named in any governed NSA,
when tendered to Carrier in a breakbulk, loose or uncontainerized
form will NOT be subject to any Over Height Charges and will be
accepted without special arrangement PROVIDED each individual
piece, package or unit in the shipment can be loaded within the
inside of a single closed container and/or does NOT equal or
exceed 2.3 meters in height (or such other height limit provided
in an individual NSA). Shipments containing individual pieces,
packages or units which cannot be loaded wholly within the inside
of a single closed container and/or which exceed the dimensions
listed above, will be accepted by the Carrier for transportation
ONLY after special arrangement and prior booking, and will be SBJ
to any Over Height Charges as provided in a govened NSA, when,
because of the height of the cargo either: 1) dead space occurs in
the container; OR 2) Carrier must change container size in order
to accomodate height of cargo. Over Height charge shall be in
addition to all other applicable charges. Shipper MUST provide a
complete description, including gross length, of any article
equaling or exceeding 2.3 meters high at the time cargo is booked
with Carrier.
c. OVER HEIGHT CHARGES:
Any Over Height Charges to apply will be as provided in
an individual NSA.
NOTE: Shipments containing individual pieces, packages
or units which are more than 2.55 Meters in height will
be accepted ONLY after special arrangements have been
made with Carrier. Any Over Height Charges to apply will be
as provided in a governed NSA.
