Prohibited or restricted

Know the difference before packing.

Prohibited items must not be packed. Other items may be restricted or accepted only under current conditions, so confirm uncertain goods before pickup or drop-off. Contact customer support or the nearest branch with the item description, quantity, value, and intended use.

Electronics guidance

Laptops and cellphones are prohibited. Electronics generally are not recommended for shipment, but that recommendation is not a universal ban on every electronic item. Ask LOGO Cargo for current guidance before packing other electronics.
