* TNT includes insurance for up to £5000 per consignment. If your item is more valuable you must arrange for extra insurance.

* To work out the volumetric weight of packages use this formula (length x width x height) x 239. If the volumetric weight is higher than the 'dead weight' that is how it is charged. For example, a large box of feathers may only weigh 7.5kg but if the box dimensions are 0.5m x 0.5m x 0.5m, the volumetric weight is 30kg.

* The maximum item sizes that can be handled by TNT are as follows:

o Maximum parcel length / weight: 1.5 metres / 30 kilos

o Maximum parcel girth and length combined: 3 metres
