Expertise for a Shipping Company Following a Trailer Overturn Incident in Istres, Bouches-du-Rhône

MCL Surveys was commissioned by the shipping company MAERSK to conduct an expertise following a road accident in Istres, Bouches-du-Rhône. The incident involved a trailer carrying a container that overturned, resulting in the total loss of the goods inside. The cargo, consisting of bottled water destined for the United States, was severely affected.

Our experts immediately responded to the scene to assess the damages and determine whether any of the goods could be salvaged. Despite efforts to evaluate the potential recovery of the bottled water, the owner of the goods decided to refuse the salvage due to potential health risks associated with the compromised containers.

As a result, the loss was confirmed to be total. Our team prepared a thorough expertise report, detailing the extent of the damage and supporting MAERSK in pursuing legal action against the road transport operator responsible for the accident.
