CANPAR will not be liable for damage to or loss of goods caused or contributed to by defects in the packaging used by the shipper or for damage to or loss of the packaging used by the shipper. All packages require a street address including the suite/unit number, postal code and telephone number. CANPAR does not deliver to P.O. Boxes.

- Shipments to business addresses are automatically protected against loss or damage to a maximum of:
- $100/shipment or $2.00/lb. whichever is greater.
- $250/shipment or $2.00/lb. whichever is greater.
If the Declared Value of the shipment is over $100, additional charges apply for each additional $100 coverage or part thereof. Please refer to your CANPAR rate guide for charges on additional coverage.
- Missing or invalid information (including but not limited to, postal code, account number) on the pick-up record will result in an additional charge. Please refer to your CANPAR rate guide.
- If a package is addressed incorrectly CANPAR will make the necessary changes, redirect the package and notify the shipper of the correction so they can update their records. An additional charge will be assessed for delivery or attempted delivery to the correct address.

Where this information is not included, CANPAR will attempt to contact the consignee and obtain the information to prevent any shipping delays at U.S. Customs. This information is then provided to the shipper for future reference. Please refer to your CANPAR Rate Guide for the fee.
- An incremental charge exists for deliveries to U.S. Residential and Rural Residential deliveries. Please refer to your CANPAR Rate Guide for more information.

Delivery Attempts (Return To Shipper - R.T.S.)

If for any reason CANPAR cannot deliver your parcel, we ensure it gets back to the shipper at no cost for
return freight and with a documented reason. When a consignee is not available to receive a shipment, CANPAR
drivers will leave a notice and make two more attempts to deliver to a business address or one attempt for
residential addresses.

and the shipper agrees to pay same. CANPAR does not reweigh its Select Envelopes.
Refusal of Packages

CANPAR reserves the right to refuse any package which by reason of the dangerous or any other character of
its contents is liable, in the judgement of CANPAR, to soil, taint, or otherwise damage other merchandise or
equipment, or which is economically or operationally impractical to transport, or which is improperly
packaged or wrapped or labelled.

of the shipment, whichever is greater.
