Refer to policy text parameters:

It is generally free to use the Platform. Base rates and additional service costs are detailed on our Website/Platform. Pricing guidelines may be updated at our sole discretion without prior notice. All payments made under this clause are non-refundable unless agreed in writing.

(b) Cash Payment Protocol

ARKOD does not encourage cash payments unless a special request is explicitly logged upon booking. All completed order fees must be settled directly between you and the carrier driver/mover. Any fee settlement disputes must be taken up with the carrier driver/mover directly.

(c) Non-Cash Payment & Client Credits

Fees can be settled via credit card, approved payment gateways, or E-wallets. You authorize ARKOD to act as your paying agent. Fees may also be settled by deducting Client Credits from your Account E-wallet. Client Credits are non-transferable, non-refundable, and subject to expiration timelines posted on the Platform.

(iii) Deferred Settlement & (iv) Disruption Backup

ARKOD may allow fees to be settled within a specific time limit via aggregated invoicing. Full payment must be made no later than the specified due date. Default or late settlements entitle ARKOD to charge interest, recover recovery costs, and terminate or suspend your account. If non-cash channels become disrupted, you must immediately settle the completed order via cash to the provider or via online transfer to ARKOD smart logistic network sdn bhd.

(v) Surcharges Specifications
  • • I. Weight and Dimension: Entering weights/dimensions constitutes pre-payment. If the consignment is heavier/larger, additional charges will be billed to your account at ARKOD's normal rate.
  • • II. Redelivery: Extra charges apply if the shipper or their representative is unavailable at the shipment venue during the allocated collection period.
  • • III. Outskirt Areas: Shipments sent to or collected from remote areas will incur additional charges calculated directly in the quoting system during booking.
  • • 1–4. Reconsignments & Diversions: Requests must be made in writing or via phone call. Diversion prior to movement bears the original destination rate. Diversion en route is based on distance from origin to final destination via the diversion point. Shipments returned to origin are charged based on the most distant point traveled plus the mileage rate back to origin.
  • • IV. Customs: Any customs charges arising during transit will be passed on to you in addition to pre-paid postage charges.
  • • V. Additional Pickup / Drop-off (Stop-off): Governing rules allow stops in transit for partial loading/unloading inside participating provider scopes if weight, quantities, descriptions, and contact names are explicitly designated during booking. Additional stop-off services are assessed at the rate applicable from origin to stop-off and/or from one stop-off to another in addition to the original final destination charge.
VI. Refund & Cancellation Rights

If a driver fails a collection due to traffic or address lookup failures, you can contact us to rearrange the pickup date. Alternatively, you may remind the courier for collection, rebook for a new courier (available after a second missed pickup), or cancel the shipment entirely to receive a refund of shipment fees.

How to cancel? Orders can be canceled as long as the parcel is under "schedule in arrangement" or "pending for collection" by contacting customer support at customersupport@arkod.com.my.

  • Any item listed in our prohibited items list is fully exempted from claims against delay, damage, and loss.
  • Consignments must be packed to professional standards in double-walled boxes with external/internal padding, otherwise claims are rejected. All packaging must be kept intact for state inspection at the delivery address.
  • Items must be robust enough to withstand short drops; items damaged by falls while outer packaging remains completely intact will be declined.
  • If the box or packaging is visibly compromised on delivery, the recipient MUST sign for the goods as 'DAMAGED', or the claim is void.
Participating Provider Lost/Damaged Goods Reporting Time Frame Weight Scope Max Cover Limit

Please state your ARKOD order/tracking number alongside a comprehensive claim description. Allow up to 3 working days for claim review workflows before contact.

10.1 — If Participating Providers are delayed or prevented from executing services due to strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, weather conditions, traffic congestion, mechanical breakdown, or road obstructions, you shall hold no claim for damages against us. For vehicle breakdowns, providers will use best endeavors to supply a backup unit with minimum delay.

10.2 — ARKOD accepts zero liability for late or missed deliveries caused or contributed to by deficient or ambiguous consignment labeling. Clear labeling remains the responsibility of the customer.

Manpower Only Service

  • Available exclusively upon request and strictly limited to town areas, subject to availability.
  • Carries a minimum charge of RM120.00 for manpower transportation, alongside a minimum work fee of RM120.00 per person. Working hours are strictly from 9AM – 5PM (inclusive of break hour). Additional tasks like assembly or wrapping follow website rates.
  • Long Push Surcharge Framework: Applies if movers push/carry goods from outside a building into the entrance, or up staircases without lifts:
    50 – 100 Meters: RM50 per manpower
    101 – 150 Meters: RM100 per manpower

Installation Service

ARKOD does not provide direct installation services; we only arrange third-party installers as a value-added convenience. Basic installation covers standard furniture and bedding sets, but completely excludes wall mounting or brackets. An installation fee of RM50 surcharge / item applies directly to stacking kit installation for individual Dryers. Complex large appliances requiring technical assembly are outsourced via 3rd party providers for a reasonable fee.

The Platform/Website is provided to you strictly on an “as is” basis, without guarantees regarding device compatibility or error-free, malware-free performance. Any quoted pickup or delivery times are rough estimates only; ARKOD carries zero liability if an actual route window exceeds estimates.

• Insurance Coverage: Appropriate insurance coverage for valuable or unique items remains the client's sole responsibility. Transit cover applies strictly per consignment only, not per individual parcel within a multi-parcel booking. Prohibited items are entirely exempt from liability cover.

• Account Allocation Restrictions: Every individual is allowed a maximum of ONE personal and ONE company account. Duplicated accounts trigger immediate cancellation and suspension without notice. Cargo linked to suspended accounts will be held at headquarters—unclaimed parcels exceeding 30 days are disposed of without claim recourse.

• Force Majeure Exclusions: Loss or damage linked to an Act of God, consequences of war, insufficient packaging, or incorrect labeling will not be covered under any condition.

• Indirect Damages: Liability is strictly restricted to the sending cost of the item and the explicit insured value. All special, indirect, or consequential damages (including lost profits, interest, income, or administrative disappointment) are fully excluded. Aggregate liability shall in no event exceed the Max Liability Amount.

We may, at our sole discretion, modify, amend, or replace any portion of these Terms or suspend features of the Platform at any time by posting notice directly on our Website or Platform. It remains your personal responsibility to review these Terms regularly. Continued access to the Services after postings are implemented legally constitutes your absolute acceptance of the changes. Using services inside an Alternate Region subjects you to the terms prevailing in that specific territory.

The collection, use, secure storage, processing, and backend transfer of your personal data remain fully subject to our standard Privacy Policy posted on our Website. This framework is completely incorporated by reference into these binding Terms. Continued use of our Platform tracking or booking structures establishes validation and consent to data adjustments across all applicable operational regions.

• (a) Assignment Restrictions: You are barred from transferring or assigning your rights/obligations under these Terms without prior written approval from ARKOD. ARKOD may transfer or assign its rights to any third party and will issue notice. Continuing to use the platform following assignment notices implies consent.

• (b) Communications: Notices may be dispatched via general updates on the Platform, direct email to your registered address, or postal mail.

• (c) Severability: If any isolated provision is rendered completely void, illegal, or legally unenforceable by a court, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining operational provisions shall not be affected.

These generalized terms apply universally to all digital service platform users. However, in specific scenarios where ARKOD has entered into an independent, signed written contract with you, the explicit terms within that written contract will completely prevail if any textual discrepancies or legal contradictions are identified.

Account holders may completely close their corporate or personal ARKOD account at any time in accordance with the standard legal rules outlined in our "Closure of account" clause. The terminating party must completely clear all remaining financial charges, lingering dispute fees, or administrative penalties upon contract termination. Final account closure processes may be subject to specialized administrative fees.

These structural Terms and Conditions shall be fully governed by, structured under, and interpreted strictly in accordance with Malaysian Law. All interacting contract parties irrevocably and completely submit to the absolute and exclusive jurisdiction of the Malaysian Courts to resolve any legal disputes or arbitration requirements.
