X. PICK-UP AND DELIVERY RECEIPTS
1. Pick-Up Receipts. Each shipment received by Carrier will be evidenced by a bill of lading,
signed by Carrier showing the quantity and description of Goods, together with any relevant
shipping instructions, and to the extent the cargo is a Food Shipment designated as
temperature-controlled, that the temperature of the Food Shipment is at the required
temperature set point or within the temperature range according to the procedures set forth in
this Agreement. Such form will be evidence of receipt of such Goods by Carrier in apparent
good order and condition. Carrier shall be responsible for providing immediate notice to HCS
of any alleged exception to, or defect, damage, or shortage of the Goods prior to Carrier
movement of it. In the event the Carrier deems the Goods not being of good order and condition
or loaded improperly, the Carrier shall notify HCS before signing the Bill of Lading (BOL)
accepting the Goods from the shipper. Upon acceptance of the shipment, Carrier shall assume
liability for the Goods until proper delivery is made and may not thereafter allege that any injury
which Carrier sustained in the course of transportation was due to such insufficient crating,
boxing, packing or loading. Carrier shall ensure the Goods are adequately secured in
adherence with FMCSA 49 §392.9(a)(1) and 49 §393.104 with exception to Shipper Load &
Count (SL&C) by shipper as cited with 49 §392.9(b)(4).
In the event of any inconsistency
between the terms and condition of any individual bill of lading and this Agreement, the terms
and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail.
2. Delivery Receipts. Upon delivery of each shipment, Carrier will obtain a written delivery
receipt, signed by an authorized agent of the receiving customer confirming 1) the time of
delivery of Goods from the point of loading to the point of unloading, and 2) that the freight was
received in good condition and without exception, or with documentation of any damages,
shortages and/or overages. Carrier will provide HCS upon request, within twenty-four (24)
hours, copies of all such delivery receipts where damages, shortages, or overages occur.
