(1) The forwarder is entitled to arrange for the dispatch of the goods together with those of another sender on the basis of a contract for a collective consignment concluded for the forwarder’s own account.
(2) If the forwarder exercises this right, then the forwarder will have, as far as the carriage as a collective consignment is concerned, the rights and duties of a carrier or sea carrier. In this case, the forwarder may claim such remuneration as is reasonable in the circumstances, not exceeding, however, the freight usually payable for carriage of the goods if separate.
