Legal Standards & Freight Governance
Understanding the framework of our logistical partnership. Transparency isn't just a value; it's the foundation of every mile we cover.
Core Governance
At STORAGE & DELIVERY COMPANY LLC, we operate under the strictest industry regulations to ensure your cargo is handled with precision. Our terms outline the symbiotic relationship between carrier and shipper, emphasizing mutual accountability. Have you reviewed the specific compliance mandates for hazardous materials lately?
We've honed these protocols over 17 years in the Albany corridor. They aren't just fine print; they're the operational guardrails that shield your supply chain from volatility.
Carrier Liability
Detailed limits on cargo loss, damage coverage, and the specific claims process for line-haul operations.
Transit Times
Clauses regarding delivery windows, force majeure events, and scheduling contingencies.
1. Scope of Agreement
These terms apply to all transportation logistics services provided by STORAGE & DELIVERY COMPANY LLC. By tendering cargo to us, you're agreeing to these stipulations. We don't just move boxes; we manage risks. It's vital to recognize that our role as a master-logistics provider shifts responsibility depending on the bill of lading Type A or Type B.
2. Payment and Billing
Standard net-30 terms apply unless a prior credit facility is established. We're firm on this because the wheels of the American supply chain turn on timely liquidity. Late fees accrue at a rate of 1.5% monthly. Why risk your shipping priority over a billing oversight?
3. Hazardous Materials & Restricted Items
Prohibited items include explosives, radioactive materials, and specific chemicals without prior authorization. Detailed SDS (Safety Data Sheets) must be presented 48 hours before loading. Non-disclosure isn't just a breach of contract; it's a safety violation that we'll prosecute to the full extent of DOT regulations.
4. Claims and Indemnification
Claims for visible damage must be noted at the time of delivery. Concealed damage claims? You'll need to file those within 7 business days. We provide a streamlined digital portal at info@storagedeliverycompany.com for documentation. We're committed to fair settlements, but rigor in reporting is your best defense.
