*** Applicable on LTL and Breakbulk cargo only ***

At the Carrier's option, unmarked or improperly marked cargo may be:

1. Refused.

2. Marked at Shipper's expense.

3. Redelivered to the Shipper at their expense.

4. Held at the Carrier's terminal pending proper marking by the Shipper or his Agent.

***Note: Holding of cargo at the Carrier's terminal is subject to all conditions as outlined in Rule 23 "Carrier's Terminal Rules and Charges".
