Information on this site
We take care to keep the information here accurate, but it is provided for general guidance. Vehicle capacities, payloads and pallet counts are realistic working figures rather than guaranteed specifications, and the exact figures for any particular vehicle vary by make, model and specification. Nothing on this site is a binding offer or a quotation.
Quotations
A quotation is only binding when we have issued it to you in writing against the specific details of your consignment. A quotation is given on the basis of the information you provide. If the consignment, the access, the waiting time or the timing differs materially from what was described, we will agree any change with you before incurring additional cost wherever it is practical to do so.
Intellectual property
The content, layout and design of this website belong to us. You may view and print pages for your own use. You may not republish or reproduce substantial parts of the site without our permission.
Links to other sites
Where we link to another website we do so because we think it is useful. We are not responsible for the content of sites we do not operate.
Liability for use of the site
We do not exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. Otherwise, and to the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for loss arising from reliance on information on this website, as distinct from our obligations under a contract of carriage.
Conditions of carriage
All work we perform is carried out under our conditions of carriage, which cover matters including liability limits for loss or damage, timescales for notifying a claim, exclusions for certain categories of goods, the customer's obligation to pack and describe consignments properly, and payment terms.
Those conditions are supplied with every quotation, so you have them before you commit to a job rather than afterwards. You can also request a copy at any time by emailing info@berksfleet.co.uk, and they form part of the compliance pack we send for vendor onboarding.
Tell us before you book
Certain categories of goods are either excluded or require specific
arrangements and additional cover. If your consignment includes anything
unusually valuable, hazardous, temperature sensitive, live, fragile or
irreplaceable, tell us at the point of enquiry so the correct
arrangements and cover can be put in place. Insurance limits that suit a
pallet of general goods will not necessarily suit yours.
Governing law
These terms and any contract of carriage between us are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction.
