Terms of service

Terms of Service — Effective Date: June 24, 2025 — Herrera Logistics, LLC (“we,” “our,” or “us”) provides logistics and transportation services guided by the principles of reliability, integrity, and legal protection. By accessing or using our services in any capacity, you agree to be bound by the following Terms of Service (“Terms”), which apply to all current and future work performed by Herrera Logistics, LLC. These Terms form a legally binding agreement between Herrera Logistics, LLC (“Carrier”) and the Client, Broker, Shipper, or any assigning party (“you”) who issues a Work Order (WO), Delivery Order (DO), Arrival Notice (AN), or related instruction. By assigning any load or order to Herrera Logistics, you accept these Terms in full. We offer asset-based intermodal drayage, transportation, yard storage, transloading, hazardous cargo movement, and container-based freight solutions. Services are rendered in accordance with applicable FMCSA, DOT, and federal/state logistics regulations. The following actions constitute a material breach of our agreement and automatically release Herrera Logistics from any non-circumvention, exclusivity, or non-compete obligations: cancellation of any confirmed WO, DO, or AN within 24 hours of scheduled dispatch; failure to assign Herrera Logistics additional work for more than 30 calendar days; reassigning or redirecting awarded freight to other carriers after scheduling or appointment setup; soliciting or engaging with Herrera’s drivers, dispatchers, vendors, or warehouse staff; or failure to remit payment within agreed Net Terms. In the event of breach, Herrera Logistics reserves the full and unrestricted right to engage directly with your end customer, shipper, consignee, or client for any past, present, or future work related to the original assignments. No claim of exclusivity or broker protection will be honored once breach has occurred. Herrera Logistics, LLC reserves the sole and exclusive right to update, modify, or replace these Terms at any time, without notice. The latest version will be maintained on our official website or made available via written communication. Continued use of our services after any updates constitutes acceptance. Herrera Logistics is not responsible for demurrage, per diem, exam fees, or port-related penalties. Clients are advised to ensure customs clearance, terminal handling fee (TMF) payment, and resolution of any port, freight, or carrier holds are completed 3–5 days before vessel ETA. Due to chassis shortages, limited terminal appointments, and restricted empty return locations, Herrera Logistics cannot guarantee container pickup before the last free day (LFD) or empty return before per diem begins. If Herrera Logistics is asked to advance payment for demurrage or exam fees, the request will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and, if approved, will incur a 20% processing fee. Effective September 1: TMF is $37.71 per TEU and $75.42 per FEU. Processing fees remain fixed and are not subject to general rate increases. Private chassis repositioning (chassis split back to depot) is valid and billable. Rates are deemed accepted and binding upon issuance of a Work Order. Herrera Logistics is not responsible for delays or costs caused by incomplete customs clearance, TMF issues, or unpaid freight charges at the time of assignment. Accessorials such as detention, layovers, chassis, overweight fees, and others will be billed based on Herrera Logistics' current rate schedule unless waived in writing. Payment terms are Net 15 unless otherwise stated. Failure to pay within the agreed terms may result in 1.5% monthly interest charges on overdue balances, suspension of active or future services, and legal or third-party collection processes. Herrera Logistics’ liability is limited to the total invoiced value of the specific shipment. We are not responsible for delays or damages resulting from terminal congestion, port disruptions, acts of God or Force Majeure, miscommunication or insufficient documentation, customs delays, or third-party equipment issues. All claims must be submitted in writing within 10 calendar days of delivery. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. All disputes must be resolved in the Superior Court of Los Angeles County. The prevailing party in any dispute is entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs. All operational communications, rate confirmations, and documentation shared by Herrera Logistics are confidential. Unauthorized sharing, copying, or distribution is strictly prohibited. These Terms represent the complete agreement between you and Herrera Logistics, LLC. No verbal agreement or informal communication shall override these Terms. All provisions remain enforceable even if others are deemed invalid by a court of law. Please consider the environment before printing this page.
