By entrusting us with your package for delivery, you agree to be bound by all terms and conditions outlined on this Delivery Slip / Bill of Lading. You also accept these terms on behalf of any third party with an interest in the shipment. No individual is authorized to alter this agreement.
Limitation of Liability:
Given the rate charged for transporting the items or packages, the customer agrees that the carrier’s liability is
limited to $50 per shipment, unless a greater value is declared in writing on the delivery receipt and acknowledged by
carrier (additional insurance charges will apply). This declared value does not constitute cargo liability insurance.
The carrier is not liable for loss, damage, or delay unless:
(a) the consignee’s name and address are clearly marked on the delivery receipt and on every package;
(b) the number and description of items are clearly noted on the delivery receipt;
(c) all items are packed securely in containers strong enough to withstand ordinary handling.
Claims may not be processed unless all transportation charges are paid in full; claim amounts cannot be deducted from these charges.
If a recipient accepts a package without noting damage on delivery records, the package is presumed to have been delivered in good condition.
In any event, the carrier is not liable for loss, damage, or delay resulting from:
(a) customer action or omission;
(b) inherent defects or quality issues of the goods;
(c) inadequate packing or labeling;
(d) acts of God, public enemies, lawful authority, quarantine, riots, strikes, lockouts, or war-related hazards.
Liability is automatically discharged unless the customer notifies the carrier in writing within fifteen (15) days of delivery (or expected delivery). Any legal action must be filed within one year from that date.
The carrier is not responsible for C.O.D. collections unless the amount is clearly specified in the designated space on the delivery receipt. Checks or drafts are accepted at the customer’s risk unless specifically designated and accepted in writing by Coverall Delivery.
Responsibility for Payment:
Even if you provide alternate payment instructions, you remain primarily liable for all delivery charges.
Customers must select the service type on the delivery receipt by check-marking the corresponding box; published rates will apply accordingly.
If legal action is necessary to enforce payment, Coverall Delivery is entitled to recover all reasonable attorney fees and costs. Any disputes or enforcement actions must be filed in Los Angeles County, California.
