invoice, ‘Robert’s Skips shall not be liable for any loss or damage howsoever caused to the
customer’s premises.’
Alan calls Robert’s Skips and hires a skip to be delivered. This was delivered by an employee of
Robert’s Skips. When delivering the skip, the employee negligently drives the delivery lorry into

to the car cost £800.
