The application of Extra Length, Width and/or 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 this Tariff, when tendered to Carrier already loaded in/on ocean containers or transporting equipment will NOT be subject to any Extra Length, Width and/or Height Charges.

Further, unless prior booking and special arrangements have been made with and accepted by the Carrier, Carrier will NOT provide COL or underlying VOCC 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 TLIs (rate Items), cargo, subject to the rates, charges and provisions named in this Tariff, when tendered to Carrier in a breakbulk, loose or uncontainerized form will NOT be subject to any Extra Length, Width and/or Height Charges and will be accepted without special arrangement PROVIDED each individual piece, package or unit in the shipment can loaded within the inside of a single closed container and/or does NOT exceed 35ft in length and/or 7ft in width and/or 8ft in height (or such other length limit provided in an individual TLI). 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 applicable Extra Length, Width and/or Height Charges applying to such shipment, which charge shall be in addition to all other applicable charges. Shipper MUST provide a complete description, including all dimensions and gross weight, of any article exceeding the limits specifed above, at the time cargo is booked with Carrier.
