1. Direction of transit: ESTONIA -> Estonia
Brief description of the transport process:
The time for submitting an order for same-day pickup from a Tallinn address is 12 noon. Pickup of orders received later takes place on the next working day or, if possible, on the day (working day) on which the order was submitted. Orders whose pickup address is outside Tallinn must be submitted 1 working day prior. The sorting of parcels takes place on automatic sorting lines, which check the measurements and weight of the parcels. The parcels move along the line with other parcels weighing up to 35 kg, as a result of which the parcel may end up underneath other heavier parcels and the parcel may sustain impacts due to the difference in heights of the different parts of the line. If the system detects a violation of requirements in regard to the allowed weight or measurements, the parcels will be taken off the line and placed separately on a pallet and the invoice will be drawn up accordingly.
Itella Estonia OÜ does not have any obligation to notify the sender of the goods about the overweight/oversize of parcels or pallets, nor does it have an obligation to package them together.
