Address Correction
Whenever an address correction results in a package remaining on the same delivery route, and the correction
is
noted the same morning as the scheduled delivery, the driver will make an additional delivery attempt on the
same
day. Packages with address
changes received after the route is completed will be delivered the following business day. When an address
change
results in a change of delivery route, the shipment will be delivered the following business day unless a
special
delivery is arranged
through Customer Service. The Address Correction Fee is $18.00 per shipment.
TOP
Billing and Shipping Terms
OnTrac will bill your account weekly and payment is due upon receipt of invoice. Each invoice is sorted by
shipment date and provides delivery information. Invoices can also be sorted in various ways upon request.
All
charges must be paid in full. Any
billing
disputes must be reported to OnTrac within 15 days of the invoice date. Accounts showing no activity for a
period of
six months will be
reverted to tariff rates. For billing inquiries, please call our OnTrac Billing Department at the number
shown on
your invoice.
TOP
Second and Third-Party Billing
Should the shipper request that payment for the shipping charges be billed to either the recipient or a third
party, and payment is not received within 15 days of the original invoice date, the charges will revert to
the
shipper and the shipper will
be liable for the charges. If the second or third-party account is closed or invalid, all shipping charges
will
revert to the shipper.
TOP
Claims
Submit claims for damage and loss within 30 calendar days from the due date of the shipment and on the
approved Claim Form. To
avoid processing
delays, please complete
the OnTrac Claim Form in
its
entirety and include proof of value. The shipper is responsible for providing documentation that supports
the repair
costs, replacement costs
or actual value. OnTrac reserves the right to waive any claim received after 30 calendar days from the due
date of
the shipment. OnTrac is not obligated to act on any claim until the shipper pays all transportation charges
and
monies owed. Partial
payment of an invoice does not constitute a claim settlement or notification of a claim request; the shipper
must
pay the full invoice amount before OnTrac settles the claim.
When settling claims, OnTrac reserves the right to credit the shipper's account for the settlement amount.
The
shipper may request a reimbursement of the transportation charges, but it will not include the fees and
surcharges
for accessorials, value-added
services, adjustments, refunds, or any other charge assessed by OnTrac, including, but not limited to the
fuel
surcharge.

Data Processing
Shipment data transmitted electronically via API, BBS, EDI, and FTP must be received by 1am PST. Data
submitted
after 1am PST will be subject to a $0.50 per-shipment manual processing fee and will delay shipments. The manual
processing fee also
applies

TOP
Declared Value
Unless a greater value has been declared on the shipping manifest, or when the consignee accepts liability of
the
shipment via signature on the delivery notice tag, the maximum liability from OnTrac will be limited to $100
for
loss or damage or the
actual value of the package contents, whichever is less.
We will not accept liability for service for which the shipper has authorized OnTrac (either verbally or in
writing) to deliver the shipment without obtaining a signature. When declaring the value of a shipment, the
maximum
allowable declared value
is $25,000 per shipment. Even if a higher value is declared, the liability from OnTrac for loss, damage or
delay
will not exceed the shipment's repair or replacement cost or its actual value, whichever is less, subject to
the
other limitations found
on the OnTrac website. The shipper is responsible for providing documentation that supports the repair
costs,
replacement costs or actual value.
The shipper will be responsible for providing proof of actual loss or damage, as well as complying with all
claim-reporting conditions when filing a claim. If the shipper declares to OnTrac that the value of the
shipment
exceeds $100, OnTrac can furnish
a rate which will increase our liability for loss or damage to the shipment at the higher value so declared
by the
shipper, subject to certain limitations. The maximum acceptable declared value is $25,000 per shipment.
For values in excess of $100, an additional fee of $1.15 per $100 of value (or fraction thereof) will be
charged.
In
any event, we will not be liable for any damages whether direct, incidental, special or consequential,
including but
not limited to
loss of income or profits, whether or not we had knowledge that such damages might be incurred.
OnTrac will not be liable for your acts or omissions including, but not limited to, incorrect declaration of
cargo, improper or insufficient packaging, securing, marking or addressing of the shipment, or for the acts
or
omissions of the recipient. We
will not accept liability for items which are not fully enclosed in a carton or proper packing material.
OnTrac
assumes no liability for fragile articles including, without limit, electronics and electronic devices,
scientific
testing equipment, glass,
crystal, porcelain and china.

Delivery Area Surcharge and Extended Area Surcharge
The OnTrac Service Area includes all of California and the major metropolitan areas of Arizona, Nevada,
Oregon,
Washington, Utah, Colorado, and Idaho. Some of the ZIP Codes we service are less populated or less
accessible than
others and carry a higher
operating cost. A Delivery Area Surcharge of $4.80 is assessed to offset the cost of providing service to
these
select
areas. For the areas outside of the Delivery Area Surcharge range, a $6.50 Extended Delivery Surcharge is
assessed
to
offset the
cost of providing service to these select extended areas. Please visit ontrac.com for the list of ZIP Codes
that
incur the Area Surcharges.

Delivery Signature Information
We temporarily suspended some value-added services because of COVID-19. Please see our COVID-19 page for more
information.
Signature Required: The shipper has requested that OnTrac obtain a delivery signature from
an
individual at, or near the delivery address, including, but not limited to, a neighbor, leasing office or
mail room.
Shipments requiring a
delivery signature that are determined to be residential deliveries will be charged $5.90 per shipment.
OnTrac
determines the residential or commercial status of an address by the data gathered and provided by Experian
QAS, a
global information services
company. The charge does not apply to No Release shipments.
No Release: The shipper has requested that OnTrac obtain a delivery signature from a
consignee
that must be at least 18 years of age, present a government-issued identification, and be present at the
physical
address. The charge for
No Release is $7.15 per shipment.
TOP
Actual, Dimensional & Customer-Declared Weight
When weighing packages, OnTrac charges the greater of the actual, dimensional, or customer declared weight.
To find dimensional weight, divide the cubic size of the package by 139. For cubic capacity, multiply the
package
length by the width by the height, in inches. Any weight fraction is rounded to the next whole pound.
Letters less
than or equal to 8 ounces are billed the Letter Rate.
OnTrac reserves the right to weigh all shipments. Package weight corrections greater than the actual,
dimensional
or customer-declared weight will be captured in the OnTrac system and invoiced at the corrected weight
charge.
TOP
Fuel Surcharge
The Fuel Surcharge is an index-based surcharge that is adjusted weekly. Changes to the surcharge will be
effective
on the Monday of each week and will be posted the Wednesday prior to the adjustment. The Fuel Surcharge is
assessed
on the net package
rate plus applicable transportation-related charges.
The surcharge is based on the U.S. West Coast Average On-Highway Diesel Fuel Price as reported by the U.S.
Energy
Information Administration (EIA) for the week that is one week prior to the adjustment, rounded to the
nearest
cent.
Fuel Surcharge percentages and their associated trigger points are subject to change without notice. If the
Fuel
Surcharge rises or falls beyond the posted index, or there are changes to the trigger points, the index will
be
updated on ontrac.com. If the diesel fuel pricing information released by the EIA is delayed, OnTrac may use released diesel fuel pricing information from an earlier week.
TOP
Hazardous Materials
OnTrac does not accept for carriage packages containing hazardous materials*, hazardous substances or inhalation
hazards, biohazards such as blood, urine, fluids, or other infectious diagnostic specimens, handguns, weapons,
firearms and ammunition, fireworks, pyrotechnics, packages leaking fluid, fuels of any kind or any shipment not
safely packaged for transport. OnTrac will accept shipments containing limited quantities of lithium cells and
batteries. When shipping lithium cells and batteries, the shipper must adhere to all Federal Regulations outlined
in CFR Title 49. Shipments with limited quantities of lithium cells and batteries are eligible for ground
transportation only; we do not ship lithium cells and batteries via air.
When shipping Direct Post, shippers must also adhere to all USPS regulations regarding hazardous and/or restricted
materials.
*OnTrac can accept Hazardous Materials that meet the DOT requirements to be reclassified using the Limited
Quantity Exception. The shipper is responsible for all DOT markings, labeling, and packing requirements. The

local laws.

responsible for
all charges caused by data transmitted from outdated software. See the Data
Processing
section for more information.

Perishable Shipments
OnTrac does not provide protective services for the transportation of any type of perishable shipments
including
but not limited to temperature or time-sensitive perishable shipments, regardless of whether the shipment is
delivered according to an applicable OnTrac Service Guarantee or is delayed in transit. Such shipments will
be
accepted for transportation solely at the shipper's risk for any type of loss or damage due to the
perishable nature
of the shipment.
When transporting perishable freight, OnTrac shall not be liable for any direct or indirect loss, damage,
deterioration, destruction, theft, pilferage, delay, default, mis-delivery or non-delivery except for
shipments that
are lost while in the custody of OnTrac; but only in the event that the lost shipment is directly due to a
negligent
action occurring within the OnTrac system. In this event, the liability of OnTrac is limited to the shipper
or
claimant's actual cash value for the lost shipment.
The shipper agrees not to file claims for perishable items except for shipments lost as the direct result of
a
negligent action occurring within the OnTrac system. Perishable items should never be shipped on a Friday
unless
Saturday Delivery is specified (please note that Saturday service is not available to all ZIP Codes).
OnTrac reserves the right to dispose of any shipment in the OnTrac system containing a perishable commodity
that
OnTrac deems in its sole and unlimited discretion to be of no value, unsafe or unsanitary.
TOP
Pickup and Delivery Service Conditions
Shipments may be delivered without obtaining a signature if the sender has not marked the appropriate box on
the
shipping manifest indicating a signature is required, or has given verbal or written authorization to an
OnTrac
Service Representative.
At the discretion of OnTrac, certain shipments may not be released without a signature, even when
authorization
has been given. OnTrac will not accept liability for service or claims when the shipper has authorized us to
leave a
package without obtaining a delivery signature.
Shipments with a Declared Value will automatically require a signature.
Shipments are delivered to the address on the package. When the address on the package does not match the
address
on the waybill, the address on the waybill prevails. In some cases, we may find cause to make an "indirect"
delivery. An indirect delivery
is made to an address other than the address on the package, such as a neighbor.
Shipments to campuses, hotels, hospitals, government offices, installations, or other facilities that utilize
a
central receiving area or mail room will be delivered accordingly.
Shipments tendered to OnTrac on weekends, holidays, after available pickup times or outside regular operating
hours may incur an additional transit day.
