Restrictions
For transports arranged in Merchant Haulage, empty containers will be provided at the Place of Receipt location as stated on the Bill of Lading.
* Pick up charges in deep sea ports (Bremerhaven, Hamburg, Wilhelmshaven) only apply if the Port of loading varies from the port of empty pick up.
In exceptional cases and after confirmation by the carrier, empty containers may be supplied at an alternate location against payment of a pick-up fee as per tariff below.
The trigger for the validity period is the first load date at origin (Price Calculation Date).
Valid from 01. July 2022 until 30. September 2022 (subject to equipment availability)
