Supplementing to our Important Notice on Container Weight in last June, APM Terminal Mumbai has already announced its strict control on the container weight for compromising the safety at the terminal and reducing avoidable costs. All containers mis-declared for weight will be charged in line with the scale of rates together with any extra charges incurred. These charges will be applied with immediate effect to the account of the cargo owners. Please note that accurate container weight declared to our company and the terminal is mandatory.
Appreciate your cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
