Olson Trucking Direct, Inc. 15 Day Credit Terms & Conditions
By accepting certain brokerage services, the Client and Olson Trucking Direct, Inc., (herein referred to as “Olson”), hereby agree to the following Terms & Conditions, which supplement the existing Contract.
Olson agrees to arrange transportation of certain property, excluding household goods, (herein referred to as the “Load”) by an authorized motor carrier in accordance wit instructions provided by the Client (herein referred to as “Services”). For these Services, Client agrees to pay Olson its usual and customary fees, incidental expenses, storage or warehouse fees, applicable tariffs and taxes. Client agrees to arrange at delivery locations, adequate arrangements to relieve Olson of Load within 2 hours of arrival by Olson. After 2 hours, Client agrees to pay Detention Time to Olson in addition to rate as indicated on Contract. The amount of Detention Time shall be indicated on the bill of lading or proof of delivery (herein referred to as “POD”) and shall be signed by the consignee. In the event of an oversize, overweight, or over-dimension load, if Client provides to Olson the measurements of Load, these measurements may or may not be verified by Olson. If any fees are incurred due to an inaccurate measurement by Client, the Client agrees to be responsible for such fees. Olson shall deliver an Invoice to the Client upon delivery of Load and said Invoice shall constitute prima facia evidence of the debt that the Client owes Olson as compensation for the Services rendered therein. The Client agrees to pay said Invoice upon receipt. The Invoice may be accompanied by a signed bill of lading, indicating a POD. This POD may or may not be the original. An electronic copy of this POD shall be acceptable to Client, unless otherwise specifically noted by Client on Contract and agreed to by Olson. This POD may be delivered to Client via electronic mail (herein referred to as “e-mail”) or postal service. Olson shall consider the Invoice as past-due after the expiration of 15 days from the date noted therein. The Client agrees to pay interest on any past-due amounts at a rate of 1.5% per month. Olson shall keep a record of the transaction for a period of three years. The record shall show: (a) the name and address of the consignor; (b) the name, address, and registration number of the originating motor carrier; (c) the bill of lading or freight bill number; (d) the amount of compensation received by the broker for the brokerage service performed and the name of the payer; (e) a description of any non-brokerage service performed in connection with each shipment or other activity, the amount of compensation received for the service, and the name of the payer; and (f) the amount of any freight charges collected by the broker and the date of payment to the carrier. Olson may keep master lists of consignors and the address and registration number of the carrier, rather than repeating this information for each transaction. Olson represents and warrants that: (a) it is a duly licensed Motor Transportation Broker, Docket No. MC343157, arranging for transportation of freight (except household goods) by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration of the Department of Transportation; (b) Olson shall use its best efforts to utilize economic and timely carriers unless otherwise instructed by the Client; and (c) Olson is capable of meeting any financial commitments. The Client represents and warrants that: (a) all information that the Client has or had provided to Olson to secure any credit is true and correct; (b) the Client has title to the Load or is duly authorized to execute any required bill of lading. In any legal action between the Client and Olson concerning the Contract, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. In addition, the Client agrees to pay Olson any costs incurred, including, without limitation, any reasonable and necessary attorney fees, in the event that Olson is forced to collect any past-due amounts. In the event of any claims, any insurance coverage provided by Olson, if any, shall be secondary and subordinate to the third-party carrier's insurance coverage. As a condition precedent to any recovery by the Client, the Client must provide to Olson written notice of any claims for loss, damage, injury, or delay arising from or relating to any Services provided by Olson (the "Notice") within 24 hours after the delivery of said Load, or in case of failure to make delivery, with within 24 hours after a reasonable time for delivery has elapsed. Where the Client's claims are not filed or the Client's suits not instituted in accordance with the provisions herein, Olson shall not be liable for any claims. The Client hereby authorizes Olson to verify any credit references and history. The Client hereby authorizes any bank and trade references listed on any application for credit to provide Olson with any information requested. The Client and Olson each agrees to perform all further acts and to execute and deliver all further documents which may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Contract. The waiver by Olson of a breach of any provision of this Contract shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach. In the event that any of the provisions, or portions thereof, of this Contract are held to be unenforceable or invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions, or portions thereof, will not be affected, and in lieu of such unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as part of this Contract a provision as similar in terms as may be valid and enforceable. This Contract has been executed in and will be governed by the laws of The State of Wisconsin. Any action arising from or incidental to this Contract shall only be brought in La Crosse County, Wisconsin. This Contract may only be amended by the written consent of both the Client and Olson at the time of such amendment. A copy of these Terms and Conditions shall be valid as the original.
