SHIPPING POLICY — YEO CARGO LLC

 

Fragile Merchandise and Packaging

YEO CARGO LLC is not responsible for fragile merchandise that is not properly packaged for export, for physical or internal damage to merchandise, and/or for boxes that exceed the recommended or supportable weight for the box.

Declared Value (Carrier's Limitation of Liability)

YEO CARGO LLC offers declared-value levels (optional, highly recommended) to protect the value of your belongings during transit. This section does not constitute, and should not be interpreted as, an insurance contract; it is the contractual limitation of liability assumed by YEO CARGO LLC as the carrier with respect to your shipment.

Absolute limitation of liability without declared value: If the CUSTOMER does not declare a value, declares an incorrect value, fails to provide an invoice, or fails to meet the requirements established for the declared-value level chosen, YEO CARGO LLC will have no obligation whatsoever to indemnify, reimburse, or compensate the CUSTOMER. In such cases, any compensation will be exceptional, discretionary, and non-binding, and will not constitute a precedent. Under no circumstances will YEO CARGO LLC reimburse costs incurred in paying freight charges to the shipping line, airline, and/or their transportation partners; it will only reimburse the value of the package/box in accordance with the declared-value level purchased. If a claim on merchandise with a declared value is approved, the corresponding amount will be issued as a credit balance to the customer's mailbox account for the payment of future shipments.

In the event of a loss, total theft, or disappearance of merchandise, if the CUSTOMER has chosen not to declare the value of their belongings, we will only cover USD $1.00 per pound shipped, up to a maximum of USD $100.00, which will be issued as a credit balance to the mailbox account for the payment of future shipments.
