What the 100-Pound Personal Items Rule Really Means
The limit is not arbitrary and it is not the carrier being unhelpful.
Call 239-273-4649Where the rule comes from
A car-hauling authority permits hauling vehicles, not household goods. Weighted-down cars also change the trailer's axle loading, which is what a scale house measures.
The practical version
Up to 100 lbs, in the trunk or below the window line, at your own risk. Nothing visible through the glass, nothing that shifts, nothing valuable.
They are not insured
Cargo liability covers the vehicle. It does not cover the golf clubs in the boot. Insure them elsewhere or ship them separately.
What gets a load refused
A packed cabin, boxes above the window line, anything hazardous, and — every year in Naples — a fully loaded car that the owner did not mention when quoting.
