If you wish to weigh your own containers then please keep in mind MacAndrews published cut off times and dates for receipt of your declaration. If your ‘VGM’ is received after this cut-off then your container may not be shipped. In addition, interpretation of the rules may vary between each signatory state, any cost incurred by MacAndrews as a result of non-compliance will be for the shipper’s account.
