Vis Major

This means serious events beyond reasonable control, such as riots, strikes, fuel shortages, accidents, breakdowns, floods, political unrest, or other major disruptions that affect performance.

Transport Terms

Commercial and operational terms

The topics below are commonly used in transport contracts and service terms. Here they are explained briefly in plain language so clients can understand what they generally mean when dealing with RDX Movements.

Conditions Precedent

These are requirements that must be met before RDX Movements is obliged to begin or continue performing a service, such as receiving instructions, documents, approvals, or payment arrangements.

Suspension of Performance

This means RDX Movements may pause its services if payment, documentation, safety requirements, access conditions, or other important obligations are not met.

Quotations and Payment

This explains how quotations are issued, what assumptions they are based on, and when payment is expected in relation to the quoted service.

Risks

This usually refers to when risk in the goods may pass, who bears certain operational risks, and how unexpected events or losses are treated.

Customer's Warranties and Indemnities

This means the customer confirms certain facts, such as the accuracy of cargo information, and may be required to protect RDX Movements against losses caused by incorrect or incomplete information.

Freight

Freight usually refers to the transport charges payable for moving the goods, whether quoted as a rate, lane price, contract amount, or movement fee.

Additional Charges

These are extra charges that may arise outside the original quote, such as waiting time, route changes, permits, tolls, escorts, storage, or emergency handling.

Payment

This sets out when invoices fall due, how payment should be made, and what happens if payment is late.

Payment Without Deduction

This means payment should be made in full without withholding set-off, counterclaims, or deductions unless the law clearly allows otherwise.

Duties and Taxes

This covers who is responsible for customs duties, VAT, import charges, export charges, or similar taxes connected to the shipment.

Lien

A lien means RDX Movements may keep possession of goods or related documents until outstanding amounts due to it are paid.

Condition of the Goods

This refers to the state of the goods when handed over, including packaging, stability, safety, and suitability for transport.

Loading and Off-loading

This explains who is responsible for loading or unloading, what safety standards apply, and when those activities are considered complete.

Loading Time

This is the allowed or expected time for loading to take place before waiting charges or operational consequences may arise.

Off-loading Time

This is the allowed or expected time for off-loading before demurrage, waiting charges, or further handling costs may apply.

Delivery

This explains when delivery is considered to have taken place, including handover, proof of delivery, or arrival at the agreed delivery point.

Delivery Details and Off-loading Instructions

This covers the customer’s responsibility to provide clear delivery addresses, contact details, site requirements, and unloading instructions.

Failure by the Customer to Take Delivery

This means the customer may still be responsible for charges or consequences if the goods cannot be delivered because the consignee is unavailable, unprepared, or refuses delivery.

Demurrage

Demurrage is a charge for excessive waiting time when a vehicle, trailer, or cargo is delayed beyond the agreed loading or off-loading window.

Dangerous Goods

This deals with special rules for hazardous cargo, including disclosure obligations, documentation, packaging, labels, permits, and safety controls.

Delays and Damages

This explains how delays, loss, damage, or related claims may be dealt with, including notice requirements and limits on recovery.

Abnormal Loads

This refers to oversized, overweight, or specially regulated cargo that may require permits, route checks, escorts, or extra operational planning.

Insurance

This sets out whether insurance is included, optional, limited, or cargo-specific, and what the customer must do if additional cover is required.

Limitation of Liability, Waiver and Indemnity

These terms usually limit the extent of RDX Movements’ liability and may require the customer to accept certain risks or compensate RDX Movements in specific situations.

Sub-contracting

This confirms that RDX Movements may use third parties to perform part of the work while still managing the service arrangement overall.

Customer as Principal

This generally means the customer is acting for itself and is directly responsible for the obligations it accepts, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
