Conditions of carriage

Purpose

SAVA LOGISTIC, as CARRIER, undertakes to carry on behalf of the SHIPPER the goods described in this contract, from the place of loading to the place of delivery stated.

Acceptance

By confirming receipt of the loading order and proceeding with the service, these conditions are deemed accepted.

These conditions are not punitive in nature.

Legal framework

We accept the loading order under the CMR Convention and Spanish Law 15/2009 of 11 November on the inland carriage of goods contract (BOE-A-2009-18004).

Proof of delivery

Only documentation in digital format, sent by electronic means, is accepted: CMR, consignment note or packing list. Documentation in original format is neither required nor accepted.

Obligations at the loading and unloading points

• The loading and unloading points assume responsibility for the operations, which are carried out under the driver's supervision. Where the driver is not allowed to supervise them, we are not liable for any damage alleged.
• The packing list is optional. Where the goods carry one and it is received, the quantity stated in it is confirmed as the quantity actually received — in boxes, pallets or whatever unit the sender uses — unless it is expressly recorded that the items were not counted or could not be counted.
• The arrival time, the departure time and the loading metres and weight loaded must be recorded on the consignment note or CMR.

Transhipment and handling

Under any loading regime there is the possibility of transhipment, handling and stacking of the goods, provided the goods themselves allow it and it poses no danger to the integrity of their contents.

Warehouse in Spain and opening hours

For carriage from or to our warehouse in Spain, at Carrer de l'Empordà 1-7, 08211 Castellar del Vallès (Barcelona), trucks are received from 09:00 to 17:00 and the site closes at 18:00, unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing.

The unloading reference must be recorded on the documents.

Vehicle waiting time

• Groupage regime: waiting time is counted from the first half hour.
• Full truck regime: waiting time is counted from the first hour.
• It is calculated by applying the IPREM in accordance with the applicable regulation.
• Where the vehicle arrives at least one hour before the point closes and is still not loaded or unloaded, the driver's remaining drivable time for that day and the waiting hours of the following day until the operation is carried out are counted as waiting time.

Loading metres, weight and volume

Where the loading metres loaded exceed those contracted, or where the weight or volume does, the price is updated to the proportional part of what was initially contracted.

Where the loading metres are not specified in the contract, those stated in the offer apply.

Cancellations

• Day before loading: any derived expenses, if there are any.
• Same day as loading: the full transport price.

Payment

The payment term is a maximum of 30 days counted from the unloading of the goods, save for the particular conditions agreed with the SHIPPER that are stated in this contract, which prevail over this general rule.

The invoice and the proof of delivery are sent by electronic means.

Liability

The CARRIER's liability for total or partial loss, damage or delay in delivery is governed by the limits of compensation and the claim periods laid down in the CMR Convention for international carriage and in Spanish Law 15/2009 for national carriage.

Time limits

Loading and delivery take place on the dates stated in the contract, save for duly evidenced force majeure.

Jurisdiction and dispute resolution

We expressly state, before the start of each carriage and for the purposes of Article 38 of the Spanish Land Transport Act (LOTT), our intention not to submit to the Transport Arbitration Boards (Juntas Arbitrales del Transporte).

The parties submit to the Courts and Tribunals of the city of Barcelona.

In international carriage subject to the CMR Convention, the foregoing is without prejudice to the jurisdictions that its Article 31 recognises as mandatory.
