6. Delivery, Storage and Use

3. Any unloading or loading shall be Customer’s responsibility, unless DMI Industries otherwise agrees in writing.

4. DMI Industries may deliver the Goods by instalments (where, in DMI Industries’ opinion, this is reasonable,) and issue interim invoices to the Customer.

5. Without limiting any other provision of the Agreement, failure by the Customer to pay any instalment, or any other amount when due, will entitle DMI Industries to withhold or delay delivery of any remaining Goods ordered.

6. If the Customer is unable to collect the Goods at the Customer’s nominated delivery point on the agreed delivery day, DMI Industries may at its option and without limiting its other rights and remedies arrange suitable storage of the Goods, whether at its premises or elsewhere, and the Customer must pay or reimburse all costs and expenses of storage, insurance, demurrage, handling and other charges associated with such storage. Notwithstanding the Customer’s inability to collect the Goods, delivery will be deemed to have occurred.

7. The Customer acknowledges that it has the sole responsibility to satisfy itself about the suitability of the Goods for the intended purpose and that DMI Industries makes no representation or warranty in this regard.
