For business customers, Crateit always recommends shipping products on pallets as the safest and most reliable transport method. This applies both to collection from Crateit and to onward delivery to the purchaser’s customers.
Parcel shipment of Crateit products may increase the risk of transport damage and is therefore not recommended for B2B orders.

Where delivery is agreed as EXW (Ex Works), all responsibility and risk related to transport, handling, and choice of shipping method lies entirely with the purchaser, in accordance with Incoterms®.
This includes, but is not limited to:
Choice of carrier
Packaging requirements
Handling during transport
Claims related to transport damage
Crateit cannot be held liable for damage arising from transport methods chosen by the purchaser, including parcel shipments instead of pallet transport.
