Available in 50 kg bags:
Loading will only take place if loads have been scheduled (see attached trailer instructions).
Do not send your truck until you have received confirmation from Kalkor that your 50 kg bag order is ready for collection.
Minimum Orders:
From time to time, we receive orders of less than 34 tons.
Please note that the minimum order is 5 tons (bulk/bags). The full order must be loaded at one time.
Trucks Loading Bag Orders:
Must be on site by 07:00 on the day of their scheduled booking.
Please note that we rely on casual labourers to assist with loading the bags. If trucks fail to arrive at the scheduled booking time or cancel on the day, the casual labourers still need to be paid.
If the booking is not honoured at the scheduled time, or if a booking is not cancelled at least 1 day before the scheduled booking, a cancellation fee of R2 500.00 per load will be charged.
Loading Numbers:
Please ensure that truck drivers have the loading number available when they arrive on site and that they have the correct loading number.
Recently, too many drivers have been arriving without a loading number, or with the incorrect number, which creates unnecessary work when trying to determine the correct customer for the load.
PLEASE ALWAYS CONFIRM LOADING TIMES WITH THE OFFICE, ESPECIALLY DURING PEAK SEASON, ON FRIDAYS AND AT MONTH-END. THESE TIMES ARE ONLY AN INDICATION OF THE NORMAL HOURS DURING WHICH THE SOURCES USUALLY LOAD, BUT THEY MAY CHANGE AT ANY TIME. UNFORTUNATELY, WE ARE NOT ABLE TO UPDATE OUR WEBSITE EVERY DAY.
The loading of products at all sources is subject to strict rules and regulations. If you do not comply with these requirements, you will not be permitted to load. Safety is of the utmost importance. If you are unsure, please contact our office to confirm.
