The insurance must include a clause in favor of Pelican. The Policyholder waives any right of recourse against Pelican, Pelican's insurance company and Pelican's contracting parties. The Customer is obliged to present documentation for the insurance taken out upon conclusion of the agreement.

Realization of the items will take place through an online auction at www.ibidonstorage.eu, after which all items in the relevant storage unit will be collected immediately by the highest bidder.
