Plain guide to the document
What the Baker Transport Conditions of Carriage Cover
Familiar industry terms apply: the Road Haulage Association Conditions of Carriage 2020, in force since September 2020. Only RHA members can use them.
Easy to find your way around, the terms have 18 clauses. The first ones cover who is who, loading and unloading, and what the customer must do.
Further clauses then cover receipts, goods in transit, charges, and loss or damage.
Practical detail too: other clauses deal with dangerous goods, loads nobody collects and delays to the vehicle.
Clear limits close the document, such as caps on liability, time limits for claims and which law applies.
Honest warning up front: you may not always get full compensation for loss. So the terms advise taking expert advice and insuring goods in transit.
Useful to know early: clause 14 sets time limits for claims, so read it before a problem arises.
Simple next step: read the full Baker Transport conditions of carriage in the PDF before you book, and ask our team about anything unclear.
