Basic Freight Charges Sample Clauses
The Basic Freight Charges clause defines the fundamental costs associated with transporting goods from one location to another under a shipping agreement. It typically outlines what is included in the base freight rate, such as the movement of cargo between specified ports or locations, and may clarify which services or surcharges are not covered by this basic fee. By clearly specifying the primary transportation costs, this clause ensures transparency for both parties and helps prevent disputes over what charges are included in the contract.
Basic Freight Charges. The Parties agree that Carrier shall be paid for its transportation services in accordance with the rate confirmation signed by the Parties and tendered at the outset of the shipment or in accordance with the rate agreed upon via email between Broker and Carrier, which can only be changed by the written agreement of the Parties. Broker also agrees to notify Carrier at least twenty-four (24) hours before the time of tendering a load that has a value exceeding $100,000.00, and Carrier shall have the right to refuse any such load.

A shipper and carrier may, or may not, specifically identify the commodities to which the Agreement applies. Typically, however, a carrier quotes rates to a shipper based on an understanding that specific commodities are being transported and the general value of those commodities. This provision protects a carrier in the event a shipper tenders a different commodity with a much higher value than the parties understood when they entered into the Agreement, by requiring the shipper to notify the carrier in advance of any “high value” shipments. The parties should insert a dollar amount that reasonably estimates the full actual value of the highest value commodity that shipper expects to tender under this Agreement. Protection against “high value” shipments is not necessary if the parties use “released value” rates, which are described in the Commentary to Section 7(b), or select Option B in Section 7, which limits carrier's monetary liability for cargo damage to the amount of cargo insurance maintained by carrier.
Basic Freight Charges. The Parties agree that Carrier shall be paid for its transportation services in accordance with each Carrier Rate Confirmation issued by Broker to Carrier for specific shipments, which can only be changed by the written agreement of the Parties. A Carrier Rate Confirmation applies only to the commodities identified therein and assumes that Broker will tender and Carrier will transport only those commodities. If no commodities are specifically identified in this Agreement or a Carrier Rate Confirmation, or if Broker tenders commodities other than those identified in this Agreement or a Carrier Rate Confirmation, Shipper shall notify Carrier at least twenty-four (24) hours before the time of tendering a load that has a value exceeding One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000.00), and Carrier shall have the right to refuse any such load.
