Additional Handling Surcharge

Effective 11th March 2024. Additional Handling Surcharges (AHS) apply to non-standard shipments that cannot be sorted on our automated machinery.

AHS can be applicable for a shipment due to its weight, size, packaging, contents or the potential to cause damage. We attempt to optimise the way we handle packages within our network so packages requiring additional manual handling processes are subject to an additional charge.

Export Customers

For all non UK mainland customers we quote Ex-Works (EXW).

EXW means that the seller has delivered when they place or deliver suitably packaged goods at the disposal of the buyer at an agreed-upon place (i.e. the works, factory, warehouse, etc.). The goods are not cleared for export.

The seller is not required to load the goods onto a collecting vehicle and, if they do, it is at the buyer’s expense. EXW is the only Incoterm where the goods are not required to be cleared for export, although the seller has the duty to assist the buyer (at the buyer’s expense) with any needed documentation and export approvals.

After collection, the buyer must provide the seller with proof that they collected the goods. From collection, the buyer is responsible for all risks, costs and clearances.
