|
The enrolled Customer, Shipper
and/or Consignee (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Customer")
agrees to these TERMS AND CONDITIONS which no agent or employee of the parties
may alter. These TERMS AND CONDITIONS shall apply to this and all future
shipments scheduled by Customer, unless and until these TERMS AND CONDITIONS
are altered or amended by EShip Plus (hereinafter referred to as “Broker”)
issuance of new TERMS AND CONDITIONS which can be found at www.logisticsplus.net.
|
|
The General Rules Tariffs, as set forth by the carriers,
will in every instance take precedence in all legal proceedings and when
applicable, will take precedence over the Broker's TERMS AND CONDITIONS stated
herein. If not stated within the carrier's General Rules Tariff, the Broker's
TERMS AND CONDITIONS as stated herein shall control. In the case of conflict
between the TERMS AND CONDITIONS contained herein and those set forth by the
individual selected carrier's General Rules Tariff, the selected carrier's
General Rules Tariff shall control. All Terms, including, but not limited to,
all the limitations of liability, shall apply to the selected carrier and their
agents and contracted carriers.
|
|
The Broker is a freight broker and NOT a freight carrier.
The Broker reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse any shipment
at any time.
|
|
1. Bills of Lading
|
|
All Bills of Lading are NON-NEGOTIABLE and have been
prepared by the enrolled Customer or by Broker as Customer's agent on behalf of
the Customer and shall be deemed, conclusively, to have been prepared by the
Customer and to bind Customer. Any unauthorized alteration or use of Bills of
Lading or tendering of shipments to any carrier other than that designated by
the Broker, or the use of any Bill of Lading not authorized or issued by the
Broker shall VOID the Broker's obligations to make any payments relating to
this shipment and VOID all rate quotes.
|
|
2. Agreement to Terms
|
|
Customer agrees that
international and domestic carriage by a Carrier of any shipment tendered using
eShip shall be in accordance with the terms, conditions and limitation of
liability set on the non- negotiable BOL, Air Waybill, Label, Manifest, or
Pick-up record (collectively “shipping documentation”) and as appropriate any
transportation agreement between
customer and Broker and/or Carrier covering such shipment and in any applicable
Tariff, Service Guide, or Standard Conditions of Carriage, which are incorporated into this agreement by
reference. If there is a conflict between the shipping documentation and any
such document then in effect or this agreement, the transportation agreement,
Tariff Service Guide, Standard Conditions of Carriage, or this agreement will
control in this order of priority.
If a shipment originated outside
U.S., the contract of carriage is with the Broker’s subsidiary, branch, or
independent contractor who originally accepts the shipment. Your use of this
web site shall not alter your responsibility for the preparation and accuracy
of shipping documentation including export/import.
|
|
3. Printed Signature
|
|
You acknowledge that if you
process shipments to locations outside the country where your shipment
originates, you must enter, to print in lieu of a manual signature on the Air
Waybill, the name of the person completing the Air Waybill for all such
shipments tendered using eShip. You further acknowledge that such printed name
shall be sufficient to constitute signature of the Air Waybill on your behalf
for purpose of the Warsaw Convention and for all other purposes, and your
acceptance of the Carrier’s terms and conditions of carriage contained in the applicable
Carrier’s Service Guide, Standard Conditions, Tariff Air Waybill or
transportation agreement under which the shipment is accepted by the Carrier,
Broker, or its independent contractor.
|
|
4. Customer Warranties
|
|
The Customer is responsible for and warrants their
compliance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations including but not
limited to customs laws, import and export laws and governmental regulation of
any country to, from, through or over which the shipment may be carried. The Customer
agrees to furnish such information and complete and attach to this Bill of
Lading such documents as are necessary to comply with such laws, rules and
regulations. The Broker assumes no liability to the Customer or to any other
person for any loss or expense due to the failure of the Customer to comply
with this provision. Any individual or entity acting on behalf of the Customer
in scheduling shipments hereunder warrants that it has the right to act on
behalf of the Customer and the right to legally bind Customer.
|
|
5. Necessary Documentation
|
|
The Customer is required to use the Broker's system
generated Bill of Lading. If the Customer does not complete all the documents
required for carriage, or if the documents which they submit are not
appropriate for the services, pick up or destination requested, the Customer
hereby instructs the Broker, where permitted by law, to complete, correct or
replace the documents for them at the expense of the Customer. However, the
Broker is not obligated to do so. If a substitute form of Bill of Lading is
needed to complete delivery of this shipment and the Broker completes that
document, the terms of this Bill of Lading will govern. The Broker is not
liable to the Customer or to any other person for any actions taken on behalf
of the Customer under this provision.
|
|
6. Payment
|
|
All charges are payable in US Dollars and are due and
payable fourteen (14) days from the date of billing, and any payment which is
past due shall be subject to an additional charge at the rate of 1-1/2% per
month of the average outstanding balance due, or the highest rate of interest
permitted by applicable law, whichever is less. All funds received by the
Broker will be applied to the oldest (based on pick-up date) invoiced Bill of
Lading that is outstanding. Overpayments do not accrue interest and are subject
to the Law of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania. In
the event the Broker retains an attorney or collection agency to collect unpaid
charges or for the enforcement of these TERMS AND CONDITIONS, all unpaid
charges will be subject to a late payment penalty of 33% and Customer shall
also be liable for all attorneys and collection agency fees incurred, together
with related costs and expenses. All shippers, consignors, consignees, freight
forwarders or freight brokers are jointly and severally liable for the freight
charges relating to this shipment.
All Customers are subject to credit approval. The Broker
intends to perform a credit check based on the information provided at the time
of enrollment by the Customer. The amount of credit, if any, granted to the
Customer is at the sole discretion of the Broker. When paying by credit card or
electronic funds, the Customer agrees they will be responsible for all charges
payable, including any adjustments, on account of such Customer's shipment.
These charges and adjustments, if any, will be automatically debited to the
Customer's credit card or bank account.
The Customer shall be liable, jointly and severally, for all
charges payable on account of such Customer's shipment, including but not
limited to transportation, fuel and other applicable accessorial charges,
including all adjustments issued by the carrier(s) after the shipment, and all
duties, customs assessments, governmental penalties and fines, taxes, and
Broker's attorney fees and legal costs allocable to this shipment and/or all
disputes related thereto. The Broker shall have a lien on the shipment for all
sums due it relating to this shipment or any other amounts owed by Customer.
The Broker reserves the right to amend or adjust the original quoted amount or
re-invoice the Customer if the original quoted amount was based upon incorrect
information provided at the time of the original quote or if additional
services by the carrier were required or otherwise authorized by the Customer
to perform the pick up, transportation and delivery functions therein. Customer
is permitted thirty (30) business days from the date of the invoice to dispute
any invoiced charges. If the Broker does not receive a dispute within the
allowable thirty (30) business days, the disputed item will be denied by the
Broker.
|
|
7. Claims and Limitations of Liability
|
|
The individual carrier's governing General Rules Tariff
determines the standard liability cargo insurance coverage offered by all
carriers. If the shipment contains freight with a predetermined exception
value, as determined by the selected carrier, the maximum exception liability
will override the otherwise standard liability coverage. The filing of a claim
does not relieve the responsible party for payment of freight charges. Freight
payment is necessary in order for a carrier to process a claim. All freight
cargo claims should be submitted immediately to the Broker to help ensure
timely resolution. The Broker will attempt to assist in the resolution of
freight claims, but has no responsibility or liability therefore. No claim will
be reviewed until all shipping and related charges have been paid to Broker.
All packaging and containers must be made available for inspection by Broker.
Insurance claim payments, minus $100.00 USD deductible, will be made in U.S.
dollars. Please contact the Broker for more details regarding carrier insurance
or carrier liability.
Where Broker files damage claim with carrier on behalf of
Customer and receives recovery funds, The Broker has a lien on such recovery
amounts and reserves the right to apply recovery amounts to open past due
invoices on account. This includes recovery amounts received from carrier for
freight charges and/or product damage claim amounts.
The Broker is not liable for any loss, damage, mis-delivery
or non-delivery caused by the act, default or omission of the Carrier. The
Broker is not liable for any loss, mis-delivery or non-delivery caused by the
act, default or omission of the Customer or any other party who claims interest
in the shipment, or caused by the nature of the shipment or any defect thereof.
The Broker is not liable for losses, mis-delivery or non-delivery caused by
violation(s) by the Customer of any of the TERMS AND CONDITIONS contained in
the Bill of Lading or of the carrier's General Rules Tariff including, but not
limited to, improper or insufficient packing, securing, marking or addressing,
or of failure to observe any of the rules relating to shipments not acceptable
for transportation or shipments acceptable only under certain conditions. The
Broker is not liable for losses, mis-delivery or non-delivery caused by the
acts of God, perils of the air, public enemies, public authorities, acts or
omissions of Customs or quarantine officials, war, riots, strikes, labor
disputes, weather conditions or mechanical delay or failure of aircraft or
other equipment. The Broker is not liable for failure to comply with delivery
or other instructions from the Customer or for the acts or omissions of any
person other than employees of the Broker.
Subject to the limitations of liability contained in the
Bill of Lading and the carrier's General Rules Tariff, the Broker shall only be
liable for loss, damage, mis-delivery or non-delivery caused by the Broker's
own gross negligence. The Broker's liability therefore shall be limited to the
fees that the Broker has earned with respect to the subject shipment.
THE BROKER MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH REGARD TO DELIVERIES OR WITH REGARD TO THIS WEBSITE,
INFORMATION PROVIDED ON THIS WEBSITE OR SERVICES RELATED TO TRANSACTIONS
CONDUCTED ON THIS WEBSITE. THE BROKER CANNOT GUARANTEE DELIVERY BY ANY SPECIFIC
TIME OR DATE. IN ANY EVENT, THE BROKER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL,

determined by the NMFC (National Motor Freight Classification) and are weight
based. All displayed transit times are estimates only and do not include day of

with the guaranteed service requested, the Customer is permitted ten (10)
business days from the actual delivery date of shipment to file a claim request
in writing with the Broker. If the Broker does not receive a claim request or
receives the request after the allowable ten (10) business days, the service
provided by the LTL carrier will be deemed to have met all guaranteed service
standards and the claim request will automatically be considered invalid and
denied. In the event of carrier failure to comply with the guaranteed service
requested and after the carrier has agreed to liability, the Broker will credit
the account of the said Customer. In no event shall the Broker be liable nor
will any account be credited if the Customer does not use the Broker's Bill of
Lading.
