QUICK CHECK / 04
Questions this guide should answer honestly.
01Does this page confirm the service is available?+
No. It prepares the information needed for operations to confirm coverage, acceptance and terms.
02Should dimensions be taken before or after packing?+
After packing. The final protected shape is what occupies freight space.
03Can photographs replace an inventory?+
No. Use both: a countable inventory and clear condition photographs.
04What remains unknown?+
Live route, schedule, cutoff, transit, acceptance, restrictions, minimums, price, insurance and land-leg scope.
