FREIGHTCAB – Terms of Service Agreement
Last Updated: April 24, 2021This Terms of Service Agreement (the “Agreement”) describes the terms by which (“Freighcab, Inc.”) offers to you, as a Shipper, access to its website www.freightcab.com (the “Site”) and the associated mobile software application platform owned and operated by Freighcab (“Mobile App”). Freightcab provides an online and mobile platform (the “Service”) to connect Shippers with Carriers for the transportation of cargo whereby Shippers can submit a request for the transportation of cargo (“Shipment”). Carriers can accept such requests, and both Shippers and Carriers can track such requests. The Service includes access to all applications, content and downloads offered by Freighcab, including the Site, Mobile App, and associated user content. Freightcab does not assess the suitability, legality, regulatory compliance, quality or ability of any Shipper or shipped items scheduled through the use of the Service, and Freightcab makes no warranty regarding the same.
This Agreement sets forth the terms for use of the Service by Shippers. By signing up and registering with Freightcab or by accessing or using the Service, you are accepting this Agreement, on behalf of yourself or the company, entity or organization that you represent, and you represent and warrant that you have the right, authority, and capacity to enter into this Agreement, on behalf of yourself or the company, entity or organization that you represent. You may not access or use the Service or accept this Agreement if you are not at least 18 years old. Please read this Agreement carefully before using the Service. Use of the Service is conditioned on your agreement to all of the terms and conditions contained in the Agreement, including the policies and terms linked to or otherwise referenced in the Agreement, all of which are hereby incorporated into the Agreement. In the event any separate contract or like document governs or otherwise impacts the parties’ rights, obligations or relationship, this Agreement shall govern to the extent it does not conflict with the terms of any such other contract or like document.
If you do not agree so, you should decline this agrement, in which case you are prohibited from accessing or using the service.
Carrier means a motor carrier as defined by 49 USC §13102(14) with authority issued by the federal and applicable state governments to haul cargo for hire. A Carrier who accesses or uses the Service is an independent contractor and remains solely responsible for screening, selecting, hiring, training, supervising, managing, assigning, and dispatching its drivers; as well as for the inspection and maintenance of its motor vehicle equipment and accessories. A Carrier is solely responsible for its own actions, omissions, training, oversight, compliance with regulatory and safety requirements, and all management of Carrier’s equipment, services, drivers, employees, contractors, agents and servants. A Carrier maintains sole control over the methods and results by which it performs cargo transportation services, and retains the sole duty to provide, maintain, manage and control the equipment, personnel, and expertise required to transport your cargo. Freightcab is not an agent of any Carrier, and no Carrier is an agent of Freightcab.
Freightcab is not a motor carrier. No interpretation of written or oral remarks in any agreement or document shall be construed to imply Freighcab is a motor carrier, or that Freighcab is subject to the regulatory or legal requirements or liabilities of a motor carrier. Freighcab has no responsibility or liability for any transportation or motor carrier services provided to any shipper or any other party using the services.
Freightcab is a federally licensed freight broker as defined by 49 USC §13102(2) under authority granted by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (“FMCSA”) of the U.S. Department of Transportation. Freightcab’s sole obligation is to arrange transportation of cargo by a Carrier that is appropriate and authorized to operate by all applicable governmental agencies. As a freight broker, Freightcab does not take possession, custody or control of any cargo. Freightcab does not assume any liability, possessory rights or obligations, and assumes no financial responsibility whatsoever, for cargo, including loss, theft, damage or delayed delivery thereof.
Freightcab offers a platform to connect Shippers and Carriers, but does not provide actual transportation services or act in any way as a Carrier. It is the Carrier’s obligation to provide transportation services, which may be scheduled through the use of the Service. Freightcab has no responsibility for any shipping services provided to you as a Shipper by any Carrier.
You, as a Shipper, are defined by 49 USC §13102(13), and warrant that you own, possess, or otherwise have rights to transport cargo you seek to ship by way of the Service.
A User is any entity which accesses or uses the Service, and may be a Carrier or a Shipper.
User Content means any and all information, data, textual, audio, and/or visual content, commentary and feedback related to the Service, ratings, reviews and other content that a User submits to, or uses with, the Service. User Content includes the information provided in a Shipment request or acceptance.
Freightcab provides a platform via the Mobile App and Website (defined above as the “Service”) through which you may submit proposed Shipments. You must provide the following information as part of requesting a Shipment:
Freightcab is not responsible for any Shipment terms entered into between you and any Carrier. Once Freightcab accepts a Shipment for posting, the Shipment’s details will be posted to the Service. You may cancel a Shipment at any time prior to a Carrier accepting it. A Carrier may view a list of the Shipments available to it at any time and accept a Shipment through the Service. Once a Carrier accepts a Shipment, it will be assigned to perform transportation services related to the Shipment. Upon a Carrier’s acceptance, Freightcab will notify you that the Shipment has been accepted. Freightcab does not guarantee that a Shipment will be accepted by any Carrier.
By Freightcab’s Terms & Conditions applicable to Carrier, Carriers whose services are engaged hereunder are instructed to issue bills of lading to their Shippers as required by 49 USC §14706(a)(1), and to upload copies of those bills of lading to the Service. Carriers are instructed not to name Freightcab as either a shipper or consignee on any bill of lading. Once a Shipment is completed, the Carrier is instructed to post to the Service a proof of delivery signed by the authorized recipient.
As a value added service to you, but not as any legal or contractual obligation, Freightcab may provide you and Carriers with trouble shooting, tracking, inquiry, and other services. In order to do so, however, Freightcab must have access to the bill of lading a Carrier issues to you for the subject Shipment. In the event a Carrier fails to post a bill of lading to the Service, we may request that you post it yourself, or otherwise make it available to Freightcab.
By Freightcab’s Terms & Conditions applicable to Carriers, Freightcab instructs Carriers to upload to the Service a proof of delivery signed by the consignee once Shipments are completed, and send you any questions or concerns regarding the Shipment.
You hereby represent and warrant as follows:
You are advised for informational purposes that a Carrier’s liability for lost, destroyed damaged or delayed cargo in interstate and international transit generally is defined by 14 USC §14706 (referred to as “the Carmack Amendment”) and by comparable state common law for intrastate transit. A Carrier may impose time limits for filing of loss and damage claims, as well as for filing any action at law for cargo loss or damage as provided by 49 USC §14706. We recommend you consult with a qualified attorney regarding any action you might wish to pursue against a Carrier based on lost, damaged, delayed or destroyed cargo.
Should you wish Freightcab’s assistance with or other participation in any claim for lost, damaged, delayed or destroyed cargo, you should file with Freightcab its written notice of claim to Carrier. Freightcab may facilitate processing of cargo claims; PROVIDED, however, you understand and agree that, notwithstanding Freightcab’s participation in or assistance with any cargo claim, Freightcab is not liable for any cargo loss which was not proximately caused by Freightcab’s own wrongdoing.
During the term of this Agreement, and for a period of one (1) year from its termination, you shall neither initiate nor accept any direct or indirect business relationship with any Carrier to which you are first introduced by the Service, or in connection with use of the Service. You understand that any such Carrier will offer and provide transportation services to it exclusively through the Service unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. Your obligation in this regard extends to instances where the Carrier contacts you and seeks to establish a business relationship that does not include Freightcab. This provision shall continue in force beyond termination of this Agreement for one (1) year subsequent to termination.
If you book or otherwise makes available any direct or indirect business relationship with any Carrier that was first introduced to you by Freightcab in violation of this Agreement, you shall be jointly and severally liable with the Carrier to Freightcab for each such violation in an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of all revenues invoiced by Carrier to you.
You shall disclose to Freightcab all information reasonably necessary for Freightcab to arrange transportation in compliance with applicable regulatory, legal and industry standards. You shall also be responsible and liable for providing accurate description of cargo including without limitation commodity type, dimensions and weight, and any special handling requirements.
You shall bear the maximum responsibility allowed by law to review and accept or decline the Carrier’s trailer for cleanliness, odor, leaks, dirt or other conditions that may be unacceptable to you. If a trailer or any equipment is unacceptable, it is your responsibility to refuse loading of the trailer. In such event, you may notify Freightcab immediately and request alternative arrangements. You should ensure in coordination with Carrier that adequate blocking, bracing and packaging for the safe stowage of cargo is used.
You acknowledge that Freightcab will never be in possession of any cargo being transported in connection with use of the Service, and that Freightcab will not be responsible or have any role in the securement of cargo for transportation.
You shall not insert “Freightcab” or “Freightcab, Inc.” on any receipt, bill of lading, manifest, or other shipping document. In the event you do so, such insertion shall be deemed to be for your convenience, or due to your oversight, and shall not operate to alter Freightcab’s status as a Broker, or the Carrier’s status as the responsible Carrier. The provisions set forth in any shipping document used by a Carrier or you shall not supersede, alter, or modify any term of this Agreement or add any liability or responsibility to Freightcab.
Freightcab establishes and follows written procedures to evaluate Carriers prior to their use by Freightcab. Freightcab continues to evaluate certain Carriers at certain intervals, as set forth by Freightcab’s internal risk management and Carrier selection policies, which may be amended from time to time with or without notice to Carriers or Shippers. Freightcab is not responsible in any way for the acts and/or omissions of Carriers or their drivers.
Freightcab provides a means for Shippers and Carriers to rate and review each other and to have those ratings made available to other Users. We do not express any opinion, nor does Freightcab make any assurances regarding, the truth or accuracy of any User reviews or ratings. Freightcab does not regularly monitor or remove reviews or ratings, or any portion thereof, unless they contain Content we deem inappropriate.
For each Shipment, you will pay Freightcab the freight charge quoted to you upon acceptance of the applicable Shipment on the Service (“freight charge”), plus any additional charges you may incur related to the Shipment. Freight charges may include, but are not limited to, detention time which may be charged, by way of example, for time beyond 30 minutes at each location for trucks 26 feet or less in length and 120 minutes at each location for trucks over 26 feet in length, overnight storage due to your not being available or able to receive the Shipment from Carrier, any differences between costs for the actual Shipment and the description of the Shipment created on the Service. Freightcab may change pricing for the Service (from time to time at its sole discretion) by updating the Site and Mobile App and without notice to Users. Carriers Freightcab engages generally are required to provide advance notice of ancillary services for which they intend to charge additional fees, such as lumper charges, specialized equipment needed for blocking, bracing, marking or securement, “truck ordered not used” fees, extra stop charges and driver assist charges. However, advance notice is not always possible or practical, and Freightcab may not be able to receive and communicate to you carrier requests for approval of additional charges before the services are rendered. In that event, you agree to pay the costs of any accessorial and/or ancillary services which Freightcab determines are reasonable and necessary.
You understand and agree that freight charges quoted to you for a specific transport may be increased or decreased at any time without notice unless and until accepted by your formally booking the transport; and that any accepted or quoted freight charges shall not apply to any future shipments you might seek to book with Freightcab, as the costs of services evolve over time and are subject to changing market conditions.
Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, payment is due 30 days from the date of each booking, subject to standard interest charges at 12%/annum for late payment.
When it receives full payment of a freight charge (including all surcharges and accessorial charges), Freightcab shall display a completed charge screen. This is your electronic receipt, and you should print or save it for your records. You warrant that you have the right to use any credit card(s), checks, or other payment means provided to Freightcab and used to initiate payment of any freight charge. All information you provide to Freightcab’s third-party payment processor or to Freightcab must be accurate, current and complete. You agree to immediately notify Freightcab of any change in your billing address or the credit card or bank account used for payment hereunder.
You agree not to circumvent payments for scheduled or completed Shipments in any way. All payments shall be in United States dollars. Any amount that is not paid when due will accrue interest at twelve percent (12%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is less, from the due date until paid. In the event Freightcab is unable to collect all charges from you due to insufficient funds, you shall be liable for all costs and expenses incurred by Freightcab in connection with collection of the freight charge, including costs and expenses of a third-party collection agency and attorneys’ fees. Freight charges are non-refundable.
In order to use certain features of the Service, you must register for an account with Freightcab (“Account”) and provide certain information as prompted by the registration and Shipment creation form. You represent and warrant that: (a) all required registration information you submit is truthful and accurate; and (b) you will maintain the accuracy of such information. You may cancel your Account at any time, for any reason, by contacting Freightcab or following the instructions on the Service. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account login credentials and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your Account. You agree to immediately notify Freightcab of any unauthorized use, or suspected unauthorized use of your Account or any other breach of security. Freightcab is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with the above requirements.

Freightcab’s contingent cargo insurance is subject to the terms, conditions and certain limitations and/or exclusions as contained in the policy, and the terms, conditions and requirements as outlined within this Agreement, which are subject to change at any time.
