All
business undertaken subject to: RHA conditions of carriage
(1988) UK transport and warehousing.
No collection
or delivery schedule is guaranteed until receipt of
actual booking is provided in writing (email) and then
accepted and acknowledged by PCS. Any quote provided
will be valid for 28 days from the date and time of
emailed acknowledgement.
It is
company policy that all work is paid for in advance
of carriage, unless account facilities are in place
or other payment terms have been agreed and accepted
in writing.
Our preferred method is a Pay Pal invoice sent to your
in-box which can easily be paid by debit or credit card,
this method dose not cost you any additional fee, you
can then print off a copy for your records and proof
of the contract between your-self and PCS.
As a
bona fide courier service we are insured to the kerb
side only. All drivers will help with carrying the goods
delivered to the inside of the house or building, but
will be, to ground level only.
Drivers are forbidden to assist with carrying up or
down any stairs or steps, should this ruling be broken
and as a result, damage or injury is incurred to any
third party or property Penwith Courier Services will
not be held liable in any way.
The above contravention is in breach of our conditions
of insurance as well as health & safety.
Antiques
/ Artwork:
No insurer will cover the Point of Sale value for Antiques/Artwork
while in third party transit, except where said item
or items have been valued in advance of transit and
said valuation has been seen and accepted by a specialised
underwriter. This kind of insurance carries a very high
premium and it is therefore the responsibility of the
owner/sender to make sure that they have insurance in
place that will cover this risk should it be required.
As the Owner/Sender you are also responsible for the
packaging of the item for carriage, and said item or
items must be packaged in such a manner, that, in the
unlikely event of an accident, damage can be kept to
a minimum.
My insurance company understands and accepts that I
carry artwork but will only pay for the reasonable cost
of repair and no claim is to attach for depreciation
consequent thereon.
If the subject matter insured consists of articles which
form part of a pair or set our insurers will pay only
for the proportionate sum insured of the article lost
or damaged, without reference to any special value the
damaged article may have as part of a pair or set.
In the event of a claim, evidence of value in the form
of a valuation invoice may be required.
