1. Acceptance of Terms

Welcome to National Freight & Drayage.

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern access to and use of https://bondedportdrayage.com/ (the "Website"), including its content, features, contact forms, quote requests, and related online services.

By accessing or using the Website, you agree to comply with these Terms and applicable laws.

If you do not agree with these Terms, you should discontinue use of the Website.

These Terms govern use of the Website and do not, by themselves, establish a transportation, brokerage, warehousing, or freight services contract.

2. Website Purpose

The Website provides general information about freight transportation and logistics services, which may include:

• Port drayage
• Import and export container transportation
• Bonded drayage and related logistics
• Container pickup and delivery
• Warehousing and storage

• Container freight station (CFS) services
• Full truckload (FTL) transportation
• Less-than-truckload (LTL) transportation
• Over-the-road (OTR) freight
• Specialized container transportation
• Related logistics coordination

Descriptions of services are informational and do not guarantee availability, equipment, capacity, pricing, licensing, or suitability for any particular shipment.

Certain services may be provided directly or coordinated through third-party providers, depending on the nature of the shipment and applicable commercial arrangements.

3. No Binding Transportation Agreement

Use of the Website, including submission of a contact form or freight quote request, does not create a binding transportation agreement.

A transportation or logistics services agreement arises only when the relevant parties expressly agree to applicable commercial terms through an authorized process.

Such terms may include:

• Written quotations and rate confirmations
• Transportation service agreements
• Bills of lading
• Warehouse agreements or receipts
• Carrier or broker terms, as applicable
• Payment terms
• Applicable tariffs or accessorial schedules
• Other shipment-specific documentation

If a separately executed agreement governs a shipment or service, that agreement will control over these Website Terms to the extent of any conflict.

4. Freight Quotes and Estimates

Information submitted through the Website may be used to evaluate requests for transportation or logistics services.

Any preliminary quote, estimate, or rate indication is subject to confirmation and may depend on factors including:

• Origin and destination
• Container type and size
• Cargo type and commodity description
• Container and cargo weight
• Equipment availability
• Port and terminal conditions
• Chassis availability
• Pickup and delivery appointments
• Fuel costs and applicable surcharges
• Customs or regulatory requirements
• Storage and demurrage charges
• Detention and waiting time
• Special handling requirements
• Hazmat, overweight, or oversized shipment requirements
• Other shipment-specific conditions

Unless expressly stated otherwise in an authorized written quotation, Website information does not constitute a firm price offer.

Submitting a quote request does not guarantee that the shipment will be accepted.

5. Service Availability and Equipment

Service availability may vary based on equipment, carrier capacity, terminal requirements, shipment characteristics, geographic coverage, and operational conditions.

References to specific container sizes, refrigerated containers, chassis types, or specialized equipment do not guarantee availability for every shipment.

Certain freight may require special permits, endorsements, handling procedures, equipment, or regulatory approvals.

Acceptance of a specialized shipment is subject to operational review and confirmation.

Users should not rely on general Website descriptions as confirmation that a particular shipment is legally or operationally eligible for transportation.

6. Ports, Terminals, and Third-Party Facilities

The Website may reference the Port of Long Beach, Port of Los Angeles, individual container terminals, warehouses, rail facilities, or other logistics locations.

These references identify geographic service areas or facilities relevant to freight operations.

They do not imply ownership, operation, endorsement, sponsorship, or affiliation with a port authority, terminal operator, or third-party facility unless expressly stated.

Terminal addresses, operating procedures, appointment requirements, and access rules may change.

Users are responsible for confirming current terminal requirements through the appropriate authorized sources.

7. Transit Times and Delivery Estimates

Any transit times, route descriptions, delivery windows, or shipping schedules presented on the Website are estimates for general informational purposes unless expressly confirmed in a separate written agreement.

Actual transit times may be affected by:

• Port congestion
• Terminal availability
• Traffic and road conditions
• Weather
• Equipment shortages
• Driver hours-of-service regulations
• Customs examinations or holds
• Regulatory inspections
• Appointment availability
• Labor disruptions
• Other circumstances beyond reasonable operational control

Website transit estimates are not guaranteed delivery commitments.

8. Customs, Bonded Freight, and Regulatory Requirements

References to bonded drayage, customs-related transportation, bonded warehousing, or international freight do not constitute a representation that the Website itself provides licensed customs brokerage services.

Customs clearance, duties, taxes, regulatory filings, import documentation, and related responsibilities may require the involvement of authorized customs brokers, importers of record, carriers, or other qualified parties.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate shipment information and complying with applicable import, export, customs, safety, and transportation requirements.

No Website content should be interpreted as legal, customs, tax, or regulatory advice.

This may include:

• Correct contact information
• Accurate cargo descriptions
• Container specifications
• Weight and dimension information
• Pickup and delivery locations
• Special handling requirements

Incomplete or inaccurate information may prevent a request from being evaluated or may affect a subsequent quotation.

You agree not to knowingly provide false or misleading information or submit requests for unlawful transportation activities.

16. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, National Freight & Drayage and the parties responsible for operating the Website will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising solely from access to or use of the Website.

This may include loss of profits, business opportunities, data, or anticipated savings resulting from Website unavailability, inaccuracies, or technical problems.

This provision applies only to claims arising from the Website and does not establish or modify liability for actual freight transportation, cargo loss or damage, warehousing, or other contracted logistics services.

Any such liability is governed by the applicable service agreement, bill of lading, tariff, warehouse receipt, law, or other controlling documentation.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability where doing so would be prohibited by law.

This provision does not apply to the extent a claim results from conduct for which indemnification cannot lawfully be required.

18. No Professional or Regulatory Advice

It does not constitute legal, customs, tax, insurance, engineering, hazardous-materials, or other professional advice.

Users should consult appropriately qualified professionals or authorities concerning specialized shipment requirements and regulatory obligations.

19. Website Availability and Modifications

We may modify, suspend, discontinue, or update any portion of the Website at any time.

Subject to applicable law, disputes relating exclusively to Website use may be brought in courts of competent jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, California.

This provision does not override mandatory jurisdictional rules or dispute-resolution provisions contained in separately executed transportation or logistics agreements.

21. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.

Any unenforceable provision will be interpreted or limited as necessary to preserve its lawful purpose where permitted.

22. No Waiver

Failure to enforce a provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of the right to enforce that provision or another provision in the future.

23. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms to reflect changes in Website functionality, business operations, or applicable law.

Updated Terms will be posted on this page with a revised effective or last-updated date.

Continued use of the Website after revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by applicable law.

24. Independent Marketing and Referral Platform

National Freight & Drayage is an independent marketing, advertising, and lead-generation website designed to connect businesses with transportation and logistics service providers.

The Website is not itself a motor carrier, freight broker, freight forwarder, customs broker, or warehouse operator, unless expressly identified otherwise.

Transportation, drayage, warehousing, and other logistics services described on the Website may be provided by independent third-party companies with which we maintain marketing, advertising, or referral relationships.

By submitting a request through the Website, you acknowledge that your inquiry and relevant contact and shipment information may be forwarded to one or more preferred service providers for evaluation and follow-up.

Any transportation or logistics services subsequently arranged are subject to the terms, pricing, operating authority, insurance, and contractual obligations of the provider performing or arranging those services.
