Terms and Conditions

Effective Date: January 22nd, 2024
Company Name: RV Transport Australia Pty Ltd

1. Definitions

  • Carrier: Refers to Myers Transport Solutions, including its assignees and subcontractors.

  • Invoice: This agreement for the transport of Goods on behalf of the Consignor.

  • Consignor: The individual or corporation named in this invoice contracting the Carrier to transport Goods.

  • Goods: Any items intended for transport by the Carrier at the request of the Consignor.

2. Carrier’s Rights and Assignees

  • The Carrier is not a common carrier and may refuse to carry Goods or provide services at its discretion.

  • The Carrier may engage subcontractors or third parties to deliver Goods on behalf of the Consignor. Any such assignees have the same rights and protections as the Carrier under these Terms and Conditions.

3. Goods Carriage Conditions

The Consignor or their authorised agent must:

  • Provide an accurate weight estimate of the Goods, within 5% accuracy.

  • Not tender explosives or hazardous materials without prior written approval from the Carrier.

  • Not transport time-sensitive Goods unless explicitly agreed upon in writing. Failure to comply may result in the Consignor compensating the Carrier for any damages or losses incurred.

4. Payment

  • Payment terms are determined on a case-by-case basis, typically requiring Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) upon delivery.

5. Charges

  • The Consignor is responsible for all transport, storage, administrative fees, and other applicable costs.

  • Interest on overdue payments will be charged at 16.5% per annum.

  • If debt collection is required, a 7.5% debt collection fee will be applied to the collected amount.

6. Cancellations

We recognise that unforeseen circumstances may require a cancellation. Our cancellation policy is as follows:

  • 7+ Days Prior: 25% of the total charges

  • 4 to 6 Days Prior: 50% of the total charges

  • 2 to 3 Days Prior: 75% of the total charges

  • Within 24 Hours: 100% of the total charges

If the Carrier arrives on-site and cannot proceed with the job due to factors beyond its control (e.g., incorrect specifications, inaccessible site, hazardous conditions, missing permits, or last-minute cancellations), a 100% cancellation fee will apply.

We request prompt notification of cancellations to minimise disruptions. The cancellation fees cover the costs associated with scheduling and mobilising transportation services. By accepting these Terms and Conditions, the Consignor agrees to these cancellation policies.

7. Delays

  • Any delay exceeding 20 minutes will incur a charge of $175.00 per hour, covering truck downtime, lost wages, and other related costs.

8. Insurance

  • The Carrier insures all towed vehicles up to $200,000 for accident-related damages.

  • This coverage excludes damage caused by external factors such as animals or road debris.

  • The Carrier does not insure Goods against damage or loss during transport or storage. The Consignor is responsible for obtaining separate insurance for transported or stored Goods.

9. Liability Limitation

  • The Carrier is not liable for any loss, damage, or misadventure to the Goods under any circumstances, including but not limited to negligence, acts of God, theft, or third-party interference.

10. Carrier’s Insurance

  • Insurance coverage for the benefit of the Consignor will only be provided upon written instruction and at the Consignor’s expense.

11. Delivery

  • The Carrier is not responsible for late deliveries, loss, damage, misdelivery, or non-delivery unless explicitly agreed upon in writing.

12. Entire Agreement

  • These Terms and Conditions represent the entire agreement between the parties, overriding any prior agreements or understandings.

13. Authorization

  • Any individual signing on behalf of the Consignor confirms they have the authority to bind the Consignor to these terms.

14. Security Interest

  • The Consignor grants the Carrier a security interest in the Goods and property to secure any unpaid amounts.

15. Updates

  • These Terms and Conditions apply to all Goods transported by the Carrier and may be updated periodically. The latest version will always be available upon request.
