Mr mover is not happy
Just been informed by our illustrious leaders , that we have a 20ft cont, ex UK , the client has declared on his b534 custom docks that he has 2 Daggers in his shipment, and cant remember which boxes they are in 
.
So customs want us to unload the container and go through EVERY box till we find them.
I think i have hyped on this enough if you declare any thing put it in a box ,tell the loaders to mark it CUSTOMS or AQIS and put it in the container last on

When you find them....stand your clients up against the wall and throw the daggers at them. If you miss......they are very lucky, if not well....nuff said!
