Please note that, starting from the 14th January 2013, every single cntr. being unloaded in Greek ports will be weighted.

If cntr.s are heavier than maximum authorised weight for road circulation (max 26 Tons. cntr. tare included) they will be taken to a warehouse, partially unloaded and exceeding cargo will be loaded into another cntr. (in this case, there will be very high extra costs).

In order to avoid any risk, especially in case of door deliveries being done by Tarros, please consider following max weight per cntr:

• 23,50 tons x 20’

• 21,80 tons x 40’
