Crates

Unforeseen charges for crates after the move can be avoided by making sure your crates are all unpacked as soon as practicable. They should be recorded and stored for retrieval by Crest. It may be easy to lose track of the crates, which will incur extra costs if this task is overlooked.

• The agreement for crate hire will specify a delivery date and a return date prior to the move date. 
• All employees should understand the deadline date for the return of the crates. Being aware that everything is to be unpacked before this date will reduce the extra costs of crate hire
• If crates are missing on the day of collection, we will assess charges for additional collection and uplift costs in addition to the extra days’ rental charges
• The crate reconciliation should be handled by the project manager. This designated person will have had to sign a consignment delivery note when the crates were deposited, and he or she will need to sign another when they are collected for return
