If the trade charge on a parcel from the United Kingdom is not paid within thirty days after its receipt at the office of delivery the parcel shall be treated as unclaimed. A parcel from the United Kingdom bearing an alternative address shall be held at the disposal of the first addressee for fifteen days, and if not claimed at the end of that period it shall be held for a further period of fifteen days at the disposal of the second addressee before being treated as undeliverable.

DEMURRAGE.

(12.) A parcel (other than one containing jewellery, or any article of gold or silver, or any precious stone) received from a place beyond New Zealand, addressed to a post office “to be called for,” or for other reason required to lie at a post-office, will, after it has remained in the office fourteen clear days (excluding Sundays and holidays), be charged demurrage at the rate of 1d. a day.

REDIRECTED, UNDELIVERED, AND UNCLAIMED PARCELS.

(13.) A fresh “fragile” fee is not to be charged on a fragile parcel for each redirection or for its return to the sender.

Parcels originating in Australia will be returned direct to the country of origin at the expiry of two months from date of posting of the advice of non-delivery.

INSURANCE OF PARCELS.

(14.) In addition to the insurance fees the special “fragile” fee of 6d. or 9d. (as may be required) must also be paid on all inland insured parcels which the senders desire forwarded in a hamper, except parcels containing fishing-rods, golf-clubs, &c., exceeding 3 ft. 6 in. in length; and unless this special fee is paid no claims arising out of the damage to any inland insured parcel will be entertained.

The special conditions regarding the packing and sealing of insured parcels do not apply to inland parcels insured for any sum not exceeding £2, which may be wrapped and secured in the ordinary way.
