Operational Limits &
Legal Framework
At AMWELD MID-ATLANTIC DISTRIBUTION CENTER LLC, we believe transparency isn't just a legal requirement—it's the foundation of a successful logistics partnership. Before we move a single pallet, we want you to understand exactly how we protect your transit and what defines our mutual obligations.
Operating Terms & Conditions
Standard trading conditions apply to all domestic and international shipments managed by AMWELD MID-ATLANTIC DISTRIBUTION CENTER LLC. These conditions outline the limitations of liability for loss or damage, specifically regarding the weight-based compensation standard common in freight forwarding.
Ever wondered why specific weight thresholds matter in forwarding? It's largely due to international transit conventions. While we take every precaution, our team must emphasize that specialized insurance is always recommended for high-value cargo. We aren't just your carrier; we're your partner in risk management.
Liability Caps
Freight is handled under standard RHA or BIFA conditions depending on the nature of the transit. Please review the specific SDR (Special Drawing Rights) limits applicable to your transit type.
Transit Timelines
While we strive for 100% on-time delivery, stated transit times are estimates and do not constitute a guarantee unless specialized 'expedited guaranteed' service is selected.
Documentation
Accuracy in Bill of Lading and Commercial Invoices is paramount. Incorrect declarations can lead to transit delays and customs fines, which remain the responsibility of the shipper.

All damage reports must be submitted in writing within 48 hours of delivery. Failure to note visible damage on the Proof of Delivery (POD) can severely impact the success of future claims.
