Special Service reserves the right to defer transport of such ‘overlength’ freight until suitable space is available on its equipment.

We strongly discourage rugs/mattresses/kayaks and other loose freight that is awkward to move and lacking packaging protection to be tendered to us for transport.

If tendered, we reserve the right to turn down a claim if packaging is found to be insufficient.
