| | Shipping Instructions |  |
| Alaska Auto Transport strives to transport vehicles in a professional manner without damage or delay. Please assist us by following these instructions: - WINTERIZE - Vehicle is appropriately prepared for transport, contains sufficient lubricants and anti-freeze to protest against all conditions and temperatures which may be encountered in route.
- FUEL – Please drop your vehicle off w/ 1/4 tank of fuel or less.
- VEHICLE REGISTRATION PAPERS - The vehicle registration should remain in the vehicle and be available at time of shipment.
- HOUSEHOLD GOODS and PERSONAL EFFECTS - Whenever a vehicle is tendered for the transport truck or shipment, the keys must remain with the vehicle. All compartments of the vehicle must be accessible while in transport. As a convenience, you may ship your personal effects, except on moves to Hawaii and to Canada. Contents that are shipped with the vehicle are released to the carrier at a value of 10 cents per pound per piece. Personal effects must be boxed, sealed and secured so that the vehicle interior will not be damaged, and so that the driver's seat will slide all the way back and the driver has full visibility.
- PROHIBITED ARTICLES - The following items may not be shipped within vehicles: Ammunition, commodities requiring temperature protection, drugs (prescription and illegal), firearms, hazardous materials (e.g. compressed gas, corrosive, poison, oxidizers, explosives, flammable gas or liquid, combustible liquid), hazardous waste, liquids, live animals, perishable commodities, property of extraordinary value (e.g. money, bonds, etc.). If such is found in the vehicle at any time during transport, it will probably be removed. It is the responsibility of the shipper to make separate arrangements for shipping such items.
- THE TRANSPORTATION CONTRACT - Vehicles are shipped subject to carrier's tariffs in effect on the date of the receipt of the vehicle described on the Bill of Lading. The tariff contains the prices, rules and regulations that govern the transport of the vehicle. It spells out the obligation of both the carrier and the shipper. It specifies the nature of liability of the carrier and the liability that the shipper assumes. A copy of the tariff is available for review at terminals. The Bill of Lading, the Contract Terms and Conditions on the back of the Bill of Lading, and the tariff constitutes the agreement between the shipper and the carrier.
