Why do Critical Epoch fees apply?
These events are the main reasons why the months of October and January are extremely intense in the transport sector. The exceptional increase in operations, the lack of resources and the price of fuel continue to be strongly influencing factors.
In this sequence, in any carrier, all resources will always seem too few to respond to the many requests. It is necessary to speed up more and more. Therefore, in order for everything to be very fast, all loads that correspond to normal measurements follow the normal process, and all loads that correspond to exceptions (such as large measurements, greater weight or different contents) have a different, and more appropriate, treatment.
Cargo that has characteristics that make it be considered as exceptions are subject to additional fees. To avoid additional costs, we inform you below which aspects to pay attention to.
