Before your possessions are packed and loaded, it is important that you understand which items cannot be shipped because they represent a hazard or are perishable. The carrier assumes no responsibility for these articles that are not accepted for transportation should they come into his/her possession without his/her knowledge. Listed below are some common non-allowable items that you will need to address prior to your pack and load dates:
