Rules for the carriage of goods by road. Transportation of oversized cargo

On the one hand, the transportation of bulk cargo is carried out in compliance with standard requirements, both with traffic rules and regulatory documents.

Dear readers! The article talks about typical ways to solve legal issues, but each case is individual. If you want to know how solve exactly your problem- contact a consultant:

On the other hand, in this regard, other rules are applied that are characteristic of each species, due to the characteristic physico-chemical and biological properties.

The implementation of such flights takes place, tonars and special containers, convenient in that the unloading process here is very simplified by the presence of a hydraulic lift.

However, non-compliance with the established norms can lead to a fine from the traffic police inspector, damage to the property of third parties, or damage and partial loss of cargo.

For rail transport

The conditions for the transportation of bulk cargoes by rail are regulated. In addition to the basic requirements, paragraph 1 provides a link to that determines the conditions for the transportation of such cargoes.

According to paragraph 2 of the Order of the Ministry of Transport No. 281, bulk cargo includes goods from the list located in

In accordance with the requirements of the cited documents, transportation in "bulk and in bulk" in this case can be carried out only in relation to these items listed in the form of 584 positions.

In addition to the list, there are a number of other conditions that play an important role:

  1. During transportation must be observed physical properties, geometric dimensions and cargo packaging (item 3).
  2. If the cargo does not require protection from atmospheric precipitation, it is allowed to transport it in open rolling stock, or in a specialized open wagon (clause 7).
  3. The wagon submitted for loading must have a serviceable loading device, hatch covers with seals that prevent spillage of fine-grained cargo, working blocking elements designed to prevent the hatch or door from opening without breaking the integrity of the seals. In order to prevent violations of safety rules when transporting small cargo, the carrier or customer must take measures to keep the cargo from spilling while traveling along the route (clause 9).
  4. The requirements for the transportation of certain types of grain cargo and crops are carried out according to the recommendations of Article 3 of the Federal Law No. 18, which equates them to baggage and hand luggage, that is, it provides for transportation only in a covered wagon or container (clause 10).

From this we can conclude that bulk materials can be transported in open platforms, without an awning only if there is no possibility of damage or blowing out during movement.

For example:

  • gypsum and expanded clay should be closed from getting wet;
  • sand must be protected from blowing, as it refers to dusty goods;
  • gravel, crushed stone or coal can be transported open.

Failure to comply with these conditions may result in serious losses. Starting from the payment of a fine for and ending with the reimbursement of possibly damaged or lost cargo.

Transportation of bulk cargo by road

The rules for the transportation of bulk cargo by road are mainly regulated by 2 documents:

  1. , section 26 "Rules for the carriage of goods in bulk", as amended on 21.05.2007.

If the Decree only indirectly touches on the topic of bulk cargo, covering the general conditions of cargo transportation, then the document inherited from Soviet times contains quite interesting information.

Rules from " General rules transportation of goods by road” approved by the Ministry of Autotransport of the RSFSR:

  1. The conditions apply to the transportation of ores, building materials, waste of metallurgical production. Not applicable to agricultural cargo (paragraph 1).
  2. Loading of bulk materials must be carried out mechanized with the condition that the weight of the load in one bucket is not more than one third of the permissible load capacity of the platform. The minimum distance from the bottom of the body to the loading mechanism is 1 m (paragraph 2).
  3. At the time of loading, the driver must be outside the cab of the truck. The excavator is not allowed to move the bucket over the cab of the dump truck (paragraph 3).
  4. The consignee is obliged to clean the body from the remains of the cargo after complete unloading (paragraph 4).
  5. The procedure for filing for loading is agreed by the parties in the annual contract, the method of designating the installation site and the sound signals used for this are determined (paragraph 5).
  6. The consignor is obliged to comply with safety regulations by fulfilling the following conditions (paragraph 6):
    • fencing of the roadway located inside the quarry
    • provision of recoil pads for the wheels of trucks, if the loading area is made at an inclination
    • timely prepare the road surface for the smooth movement of cars
    • wet the road at the quarry to reduce dust
    • control the content of concentrated gases within the normal range.
  7. Receipt and delivery of bulk materials is carried out by weighing. If the recipient is not able to determine the weight, the reception can take place visually, based on the total volume. In some situations, the carrier may be exempted from delivering the goods to the recipient, for example when removing snow (paragraph 8).
  8. Cargo transportation of homogeneous bulk materials is issued by one consignment note, which indicates the category "Cargo in bulk" (paragraph 9).

Technology

The principle of transportation of bulk materials can be divided into several stages:

  1. Preparatory work, which include a number of actions:
    • determination of the optimal mode of transport for a given situation (railway, sea, river, air, road, combined);
    • choice of carrier company;
    • preparation of supporting documentation.
  2. Cargo loading.
  3. Transportation. This stage may occur using one or more modes of transport. In this case, it may be necessary to move cargo from one platform to another along the way. You can avoid this by using containers that allow you to perform transport changes without .
  4. Transfer to recipient, unloading and signing the transfer documentation.

Organization of traffic safety

The main feature of bulk cargo is that they are transported without containers or packaging, due to the impossibility of using it. They consist of numerous mobile particles of a certain size, which may be homogeneous or heterogeneous in composition.

When transporting bulk cargo, you should be extremely careful, as there is a risk of the following situations:

  1. Damage to the road surface or vehicles of other participants traffic as a result of the fall.
  2. Maneuvering problems.
  3. Possible difficulties during loading and unloading.
  4. Some bulk goods are at risk of spontaneous combustion (coal, firewood, peat-based fertilizers).

To avoid the occurrence of non-standard situations in the process of delivery, loading and unloading, it is necessary to adhere to certain requirements.

Compliance with these requirements allows you to be as confident as possible in the integrity of the cargo:

  1. The top point of the bulk cargo should not exceed the level of the sides of the body, platform. non-compliance this requirement will result in spillage onto the road.
  2. It is the responsibility of the carrier to carry out work to prevent the loss of part of the cargo. To do this, he uses a canvas canopy, which covers the surface, thereby preventing spillage and blowing.
  3. Transportation of bulk cargo in containers without packing in special containers is not allowed.
  4. The mass of the loaded bulk material should not exceed the carrying capacity of the transport used.
  5. While following the route, the driver of the car must adhere to the traffic rules of the Russian Federation.
  6. Transportation of bulk cargoes without documents is not allowed. The contents of the body must be confirmed by the presence of the necessary papers:
    • contracts or applications for the carriage of goods between the contractor and the customer;

    • consignment note of the established form (depending on the situation);

    • receipts confirming the receipt and transfer of goods.

      • The main feature of this direction of cargo transportation is the ban on declaring the value of the cargo. Clause 76 of the Government Decree No. 272 ​​of April 15, 2011 voices this condition as follows: if there is a seal installed by the sender and acting as a so-called key, this action is not performed.

      Calculation of the needs of machines

      Definition desired type transport takes place at the first, preparatory stage, this was already mentioned a little earlier. In this case, we will talk about the calculation of the needs of cars.

      Sometimes, in order to carry out fast and high-quality transportation, it may be necessary to use several vehicles capable of delivering the required amount of cargo to the construction site at regular intervals.

      Another situation involves opposite requirements, such as the rapid transport of crops from a warehouse to another facility. Therefore, each situation must be treated with a complete analysis of what is happening, taking into account not only financial criteria, but also the properties of the material.

      Losses in transit

      The loss of bulk cargo during transportation can be explained by the following reasons:

    1. Theft (loss, loss, withdrawal). In this case, there is a characteristic visual absence of cargo in the body, container.
    2. Deficiency refers to the partial absence of a part.
    3. Damage or deterioration is accompanied by the presence of obvious or hidden quality defects.

    In all cases, the responsibility for the integrity of the cargo lies with the carrier. To determine the degree of his guilt, a commission may be appointed, which determines the loss factor in accordance with the "Responsibility of the carrier ...".

    The identified causes can be of various specifics, ranging from fraudulent actions of third parties to the negligence of the carrier.

    Mainly affected as a result of the following circumstances:

    1. Spilling through crevices and cracks in the body.
    2. wind erosion.
    3. Non-compliance of containers or packaging with the specifics of the cargo being transported.
    4. In railway transport, the cause may be the impact of the axles of wagons when starting, as a result of pushing maneuvers on the marshalling line.
    5. Sea and river - when hit in a storm.

    Natural losses during the transportation of bulk cargo are determined as a reduction in weight under the influence of biological, physico-chemical properties. This is possible even if all the necessary requirements are met during their transportation.

    An example is the situation when river sand is transported:

    • it is mined just before loading;
    • at the time of loading, it is quite wet, which significantly increases the mass;
    • during transportation, it is partially weathered and dries up; this can significantly reduce the weight of the cargo.

    Basic concepts

    The rules apply to the transportation of various piece cargoes, metal cargoes of all types, mobile equipment, reinforced concrete products and structures, containers, packaged cargoes, cargoes in overpacks, bulky and heavy cargoes, timber cargoes.

    For goods considered in the rules and simultaneously listed, the requirements for carriage by sea must also be met. dangerous goods. The rules set General requirements to the loading and unloading of ships, ensuring safety during transportation. Including hazardous substances in packaged form, bulky and heavy cargo. Which, due to their inherent properties and characteristics, may, when transported by sea, endanger the life and health of people, lead to damage to ships and transported goods.

    Requirements applicable to container senders:

    • Cargo requiring tare and packaging must be presented for transportation in good tare and packaging;
    • Tare and packaging, for which state standards are established or for which technical conditions are established, must comply with them.

    Information features of the transfer of cargo

    The shipper must promptly hand over to the carrier all documents relating to the cargo required by the regulations. The consignor shall be liable to the carrier for losses caused as a result of untimely transfer, unreliability of such documents.

    The sender is obliged to properly mark the cargo and provide the carrier with the necessary information about it. For this purpose, the consignor shall provide written information about the cargo in advance of loading. (Fig.1)

    Rice. 1 Marking when packing cargo
    1 - Danger sign;
    2 - Manipulation signs;
    3 - UN serial number;
    4 - Classification code;
    5 - Shipping name.

    In order to ensure the reliability and completeness of information on cargoes that pose the greatest danger during maritime transportation, the shipper entrusts the development of cargo information to a recognized organization.

    Information about the cargo can be used during the validity period set by the developer, depending on the nature and dynamics of changes in the transport characteristics and properties of the cargo.

    Cargo, packages and cargo transport units, including containers, must be loaded, stowed and secured on board the ship during the entire voyage in accordance with the cargo securing manual.

    Loading- unloading work on the ship are carried out in accordance with the instructions for securing cargo according to the working technological documentation developed and approved in the prescribed manner. (Fig.2)


    Loading and unloading work on the ship

    The consignor of goods that pose the greatest danger during maritime transportation organizes control over the fulfillment of the requirements for cargo information. Also issuance to the captain of the vessel of a document on the safe stowage and securing of cargo. In the case of carriage of cargo on deck and the performance of work on its fastening, it is the responsibility of the carrier to obtain a document confirming the exercise of due care to ensure the safe transportation of cargo.

    In order to obtain permission to leave a ship with cargo that is dangerous during sea transportation, the captain of the ship submits information about the cargo to the Harbor Master. Also, a document on its safe installation and fastening, issued by a recognized organization.

    Requirements for cargo, containers, packaging and labeling

    Presented for transportation by sea, must be prepared taking into account the requirements of cargo standards, as well as comply with the requirements of the conditions of sea transportation and standards in terms of:

    • Serviceability of containers and packaging;
    • Availability and serviceability of seals, locks, control tapes;
    • Lack of leakage of liquid cargo in containers;
    • Compliance of containers with regulatory documents;
    • The presence of clearly visible markings on the container, including warning labels;
    • Lack of wetting of cargoes that are afraid of it;
    • Absence of odors or other signs indicating damage to the cargo.

    Packed dangerous goods

    When preparing general cargo for transportation, it is necessary to take into account:

    1. The possibility of its displacement under the influence of pitching;
    2. The danger associated with the possibility of its ignition, explosion and adverse effects on humans and environment(toxicity, radiation exposure);
    3. Possibility of loss of quality or damage from exposure to moisture, dust, pollution, heat, corrosion, fumes and various kinds bacteria;
    4. Emission of moisture, dust, heat and various odors;
    5. The need to ensure certain temperature, humidity and ventilation modes of transportation.

    According to the signs of compatibility, general cargoes are divided into three categories:

    1. Possessing aggressive properties;
    2. exposed to aggressive factors;
    3. Neutral.

    Vessel carrying general cargo

    The tare of packages weighing one ton or more must have devices (butts, eyelets, hooks, etc.) for loading and unloading operations and securing cargo on the ship. The strength of these devices must correspond to the weight of the package and the loads arising during sea transportation. Lifting devices shall not protrude beyond the outer surfaces of the packaging. In case of detection of deficiencies associated with the risk of loss, damage or damage to the cargo or damage to the ship, the shipper must bring the container in line with the requirements of the current regulations. normative documents.

    Preparation of cargo spaces and ship devices for receiving cargo

    Vessels delivered by the carrier for loading must be in a seaworthy condition, and the cargo spaces must be prepared to receive cargo.

    Vessel preparation for receiving cargo should include:

    1. Bringing the cargo spaces into the appropriate condition for the given cargo and checking the systems passing through the cargo spaces;
    2. Checking the correct operation of cargo devices;
    3. Checking the reliability of the closure of openings, access to which will be impossible after loading the ship, and openings that, in accordance with their purpose, must be closed;
    4. Checking the serviceability of devices used to monitor the water level in the bilges, as well as drainage systems;
    5. Health check fire fighting systems and equipment;
    6. Checking the tightness of hatch covers and the hydraulic system of the hatch cover drive.

    Cargo spaces must be cleared of the remains of previously transported goods, while the nature of the cleaning of the premises depends on the type of cargo to be transported:

    • Before the transportation of building materials, metal products, mobile equipment, bulk cargo and other cargo not exposed to dust, odors, etc., holds are dry-cleaned;
    • Before the transportation of food and vegetable goods, cotton, fabrics and other industrial goods in small packages or packages, cargo spaces must be washed, dried and ventilated;
    • In the presence of odors, cargo spaces must be deodorized;
    • After transportation of salted fish, wet-salted skins, liquid fats, salt, livestock and other similar cargoes, the holds must be washed, and after transportation of wet-salted skins and disinfected;
    • After the carriage of dusty, polluting cargo, such as coal in bulk, the holds must be flushed with water from the hoses.

    Vessel cleaning after cargo transportation

    To protect against cargo impacts, ship systems (pipes) in the ship's cargo spaces must be protected by metal or wooden casings. Bilge bilges must be opened and cleaned. If there is a smell in the bilges, they should be dried after washing and sprayed with milk of lime, potassium permanganate, 1% ammonia solution or other deodorizing agents. The necks of all tanks must be checked for tightness. The suction pipes of the drainage system and the measuring tubes must be inspected and cleaned. Ship booms and cranes must be raised and secured in such a way that they do not interfere with the operation of shore cranes.

    When using ship lifting equipment, they must be checked in advance and brought to readiness in accordance with the requirements of the rules of technical operation and ship technical documentation.


    Vessel, with built-in crane

    Before stowage of deck cargo, the following must be done:

    1. Provide and install a sufficient number of strong eyelets and butts for fastening lashings;
    2. Protect pipelines running along the deck from possible damage by the cargo;
    3. Check the reliability of hatch covers;
    4. Clean the scuppers and storm ports from dirt and check their serviceability;
    5. Pick up the necessary devices for fastening and place them in the places of loading;
    6. Prepare necessary materials with increased coefficient of friction and place them in the places of loading;
    7. Mark places on deck that must be left free of cargo to provide access to fire stations, hatches, doors, etc.

    The readiness of cargo spaces for the carriage of a particular type of cargo is checked by the ship's administration, which is recorded in the ship's log.

    Transportation of goods is a common service sector. In order for the process of loading and transportation to be successful, it is necessary to comply with the regulations. How to organize cargo transportation? What documents are required? How to deliver the goods safely? Read about it in the article.

    The legislative framework

    The most popular type of cargo transportation is road transport. The rules governing this type of transportation are reflected in various laws, orders of the Ministry of Transport and traffic rules (SDA). These documents complement each other and describe the nuances associated with cargo transportation. The main regulatory legal acts that establish the rules for the carriage of goods by road include:

    General provisions

    The traffic rules and government decree No. 272 ​​indicate key features oversized cargo, its volume and important parameters of the vehicle. Cargo is allowed to be transported if it:

    • firmly attached to the vehicle;
    • does not interfere with the driver to drive the car while driving;
    • does not restrict the driver's view;
    • does not cover the identification marks of the machine and lighting devices;
    • does not make loud noise;
    • does not create a dust cloud around the car;
    • does not damage the road surface.

    Separate requirements are established for the transportation of oversized cargo. The load is considered bulky if it protrudes beyond the rear and front of the vehicle by more than one meter, and from the sides by more than 40 centimeters. In such cases, a special sign with a reflective coating is installed on the vehicle. According to GOST, the sign looks like this:

    *Dimensions are in millimeters.

    Vehicle parameters for cargo transportation

    The parameters of the machine that is used to transport goods should not differ from the maximum allowable. The maximum length of a single vehicle or trailer is 12 meters, a road train is 20 meters. The width of all vehicles is 2.55 meters, isometric bodies - 2.6 meters. The height of all vehicles is 4 meters. These figures include the size of containers and swap bodies.

    Special requirements are imposed on the mass of the vehicle, depending on its type, the location of the axles and their number.

    Single cars:

    Saddle and trailer trains:

    In the process of organizing cargo transportation, the permissible axial load on the roadway is taken into account. It varies from 6 to 12 tons.

    Documentation for the transport of goods

    In order to guarantee the safety and delivery of cargo to the final destination, contractual relations are built between the carrier and the consignor. They are accompanied by documents, samples of which can be found in the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 15.04.2011 No. No. 272.

    Contract for carriage

    The process of concluding a contract takes place in stages:

    • submission to the carrier of an application in free form (written);
    • consideration of the application within 3 calendar days;
    • decision to accept or reject the application.

    If the application is approved, the details and terms of the contract are discussed. In this case, the consignor has the right to demand from the carrier a full price list at any time.

    Waybill

    In parallel with the main contract, a waybill (TN) is made. It includes 17 items containing detailed information about the consignor, consignee, characteristics of the cargo, accompanying documents, etc.

    You can familiarize yourself with the invoice and download it.

    The bill of lading must be in triplicate. The first one remains with the consignor, the second one is transferred to the consignee and the third one - to the carrier. One invoice is issued for one vehicle.

    charter agreement

    The documentary base of rules for the carriage of goods was supplemented in 2017 with a charter agreement (order-order agreement). This type of agreement is concluded if the same person acts as the consignor and consignee or when renting a car for transportation. A charter agreement is also drawn up in a situation where keeping records of the movement of inventory items is not required.

    A sample charter agreement can be downloaded.

    Requirements for the submission of the vehicle, acceptance and loading

    The vehicle for transportation must comply with specifications specified in the contract. Submission of an unsuitable vehicle is equated to the carrier's inability to provide a vehicle. A driver's delay for more than 2 hours is tantamount to being late. This may be the basis for the refusal of the customer from the services of the carrier.

    At the place of loading, the consignment note records the time and date of arrival of the vehicle, the state of the container, the number of containers, vans for loading. In the consignment note, the compliance of the cargo with the standards (marking, type, weight parameters) is recorded.

    In the event of the necessary dismantling of containers, the vehicle draws up an accompanying statement. It is written in it temperature regime, data on compliance with sanitary-epidemiological and customs requirements for certain types of cargo.

    Loading - the area of ​​responsibility of the consignor, the receipt and unloading of the container is the responsibility of the consignee.

    Ensuring the safety of cargo

    Before shipment, the goods are packaged in different containers. Each container is sealed by the consignor. The filling process is governed by the rules:

    • the seal must have features(name, company logo, date);
    • the fact of sealing is recorded in the TN;
    • seals must be without visible damage;
    • the seal is installed by 1 piece on the doors of vans, containers, for tanks - on the hatch cover;
    • the seal is placed on the wire and compressed with a vise;
    • breaking or crushing the seal during transportation is prohibited.

    Transportation of different types of cargo

    Rules for the transport of dangerous goods

    Dangerous goods (OG) include any gases, radioactive, poisonous, explosive substances, flammable liquids, peroxides. Their transportation is carried out in vehicles equipped for this type of cargo. Exhaust gas transportation is an event taking into account many nuances:

    • GOSTs regulate the requirements for containers and vehicles for the transport of dangerous goods. This information is indicated in the technical documentation when sending the goods.
    • For regular transportation of dangerous goods, the machine is additionally equipped with an exhaust pipe. The fuel tank must not come into contact with heat or electrical sources.
    • The car is painted different colors. It depends on the type of OG. Flammable compounds - orange, gases - blue, self-igniting - white and red.
    • The vehicle must have grounding, a solid body, isolated ventilation, and special signs.
    • The use of more than 1 trailer is prohibited.

    Rules for the transportation of perishable goods

    The main segment of perishable goods is industrial products and vegetation. Such a specific type of cargo is transported in accordance with the norms established by law. The key ones are:

    • Creation of optimal temperature conditions in containers;
    • Compliance with the terms of storage, packaging and sanitary requirements;
    • The presence of a policy of the veterinary and sanitary authority (for meat products);
    • Cleaning of containers after cargo delivery;
    • Indication in the TTN of the temperature of the cargo at the time of loading.

    Penalties for violation of the rules of transportation of goods

    Incorrect organization of transportation of goods entails the imposition of penalties on the carrier. Their list is detailed in Art. 12.21 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

    Fines have different sizes, conditionally they can be divided into 4 categories:

    Transportation of goods is a long process, proper organization guaranteed by the consignor and consignee. The main thing is not to violate the requirements of the law and comply with the instructions of the supervisory authorities.

    For small business news, we launched a special channel in Telegram and groups in

    The organization of transportation of goods by road is characterized by certain features that, in fact, distinguish it from activities to ensure the supply of goods by air and rail. The current Rules for road freight transportation, established by law, strictly regulate the performance of loading, transit and unloading of all types of goods. The main provisions of the rules, as well as significant changes that affected the rules in 2016, will be considered in detail in this article.

    Legislative framework: main provisions of the rules

    To date, the rules for cargo transportation by road are regulated by government decree No. 272, which establishes the procedure for organizing transportation various cargoes(international, suburban, urban traffic), as well as dangerous and perishable goods. Approval of the current rules falls on 2011.

    In addition, the Rules stipulate the procedure for ensuring the safety of goods, containers, vehicles, as well as the conditions for cargo transportation and the provision of a vehicle for such activities. You can read the full text of the resolution.

    Contract for the carriage of goods

    The Rules stipulate the procedure for drawing up contracts for the carriage of goods, which are concluded by accepting orders and applications from shippers for execution by carriers. Confirmation of the conclusion of the contract is expressed in the form of a bill of lading for one or more consignments, drawn up by the consignor in accordance with Appendix No. 4. The document is drawn up in three copies: for the consignor, carrier and consignee.

    If several vehicles are involved in the transportation of cargo, the consignment note is drawn up in an amount equal to that of vehicles.

    Consideration of the application by the carrier, including informing about acceptance or refusal with written justification, cannot take more than 3 days from the date of acceptance of the order. Next, the terms of transportation are agreed with the obligatory designation of them in the consignment note. If we are talking about dangerous, heavy, bulky cargo, information about the period, date and number of the special permit, as well as information about the intended route of such cargo, is also indicated.

    The conclusion of the contract, according to the Rules, is preceded by familiarization with the price list on the cost of services and the calculation procedure, which is presented by the carrier at the first request of the consignor.

    Freight contract for the carriage of goods

    A charter agreement is concluded for cargo transportation, involving the accompaniment of the owner of the transported cargo, or the absence of accounting for the movement of material assets of the goods. For the charter agreement, in this case, the form of an order-order for the provision of a vehicle is provided. Details can be found in Appendix No. 5.

    For consideration of an order legal entity or an individual entrepreneur is given three days, after which the obligation arises to inform the customer in writing about the decision made.

    After discussing the conditions for providing a vehicle for chartering, followed by entering into the contract, one copy of the document is transferred to the customer, the other two - to the driver. Then the driver will attach one copy to the invoice and send it to the customer.
    In the absence of completed items that provide for the terms of chartering, cooperation takes place on the terms established by the Rules or federal law.

    If the vehicle is used for personal purposes and is not related to entrepreneurial activity, cooperation is carried out by agreement of the parties.

    The procedure for providing vehicles and containers for loading

    Submission of the vehicle for loading and, accordingly, the transfer of cargo is carried out in accordance with the terms established by the charter agreement.

    The process involves making entries in the bill of lading:

    • on the date, time of submission of the vehicle upon the fact;
    • on the condition of the transferred cargo, packaging, containers;
    • about marking and sealing;
    • about total mass cargo and the number of packages.

    When carrying out the task of ensuring the safety of cargo transportation and its safety, only a vehicle suitable for cargo transportation may be involved. As such, vehicles are recognized that are equipped with appropriate equipment, meet their purpose and load capacity indicators.

    Otherwise, the supply of vehicles and containers is considered to be failed. Delay is considered to be a delay in the delivery of the vehicle for more than two hours from the time specified in the order.

    At the end of loading, the driver signs the invoice, if necessary, the comments that arose during loading are indicated.

    The consignor's refusal to fulfill the charter agreement is allowed:

    • if an unsuitable vehicle was presented for loading;
    • if the delivery of the vehicle and containers was delayed;
    • if before the loading, the driver did not present an identity document and a waybill.

    Requirements for the condition of the cargo:

    • compliance of the mass of cargo with the indicator specified in the consignment note;
    • marking in accordance with established requirements (quantity, numbers, weight of packages, names of parties, indication of addresses of loading and unloading points);
    • preparation of the cargo, its packaging and packing comply with the standards and conditions of regulatory documents, assuming the relevant provisions.

    Details on the procedure and list of works for loading and unloading cargo, as well as their terms, can be found in Appendix No. 6-8. Permissible parameters of vehicles involved in cargo transportation, including their dimensions, maximum weight, axle loads, are indicated in Appendix No. 1-3.

    Calculation of cargo weight, sealing of vehicles and containers

    The determination of the mass of piece goods, as well as those in containers or packaging, occurs by weighing or by calculation, which is based on geometric measurement data in accordance with the volume of the cargo or the available technical documentation for it.

    Upon completion of the loading process, the bodies of vehicles, as well as containers, are sealed.

    In some cases, sealing involves a banding procedure using paper tape, braid and other materials.

    Delivery and unloading of goods, estimated terms

    Usually, delivery and unloading of goods is carried out according to the terms specified in the contract for the carriage of goods.

    Otherwise, delivery must be implemented:

    • during the day - for suburban and urban traffic;
    • during the time, the value of which is determined at the rate of one day per 300 km of the transportation route.

    The cargo is recognized as lost if, at the request of the consignee, it was not issued:
