Know the risks around cargo storage.

In a world engaged in moving cargoes from one place to another, it is easy to spend time focused on what is being moved and the risks involved in transit. Inevitably, there will be multiple places where the goods will ‘rest’, either as an interface between different modes of transport or for other trade needs.

This page looks at the risks of storing cargo from dangerous goods to theft, to weather risks, to abandonment of cargo. We will be releasing a new series of TT brief documents that will look at warehouse safety, security, flooding risk and fire risk.

TT Club draws attention to the critical question of who is initially responsible for the state in which cargo is shipped.

This is the first in a series of ‘Risk Bytes’ which TT is providing to its membership and those in the global supply chain. 

This Risk Byte provides a snapshot of the risks associated with so-called ‘good neighbour’ agreements and why you and the neighbour you share resources with must have adequate insurance in place*.

The next version of the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG code), being Amendment 41-22, will shortly enter mandatory application.
