All business relations between Access Logistic GmbH and natural persons or legal entities (hereinafter referred to as “Contractor”) shall be governed by the General Terms and Conditions of Business set out below (hereinafter referred to as “GTC”).
These GTC shall also apply to all future business relationships with the Contractor, even if they are not expressly agreed again. The version valid at the time of conclusion of the contract shall apply in each case.
Contracts for deliveries and services by Access Logistic GmbH shall be concluded exclusively on the basis of these GTC.
Deviating, conflicting or supplementary contractual terms and conditions – in particular the Contractor’s terms and conditions of business or delivery – shall not become part of the contract unless Access Logistic GmbH has expressly agreed to their application in writing.
In addition, the General Austrian Forwarders’ Terms and Conditions (AÖSp) apply in their currently valid version (available in English and German on the Internet at Allgemeine Österreichische Spediteurbedingungen (AÖSp) – WKO ). The AÖSp also apply in relation to foreign principals.
The contractor is obligated to provide written proof before the transport is carried out, ensuring that he has concluded a valid, paid CMR insurance with a maximum liability limit of at least EUR 250,000 per claim without a deductible. If the insured sum does not correspond with the arranged amount, an employee of the Access Logistic GmbH must be informed immediately. In agreement with this, Access Logistic GmbH will add an additional transport insurance (supplementary insurance) and will charge the costs to the respective transport service provider. The contractor gives his explicit consent.
All prices within the transport orders are fixed prices. If the agreed freight price is erroneously wrong in the transport order, we must be informed at the latest after 7 working days. After a positive check, the order will be issued again with the correct price. Written agreements are only valid if this is confirmed by an employee of Access Logistic GmbH.
Proven cancellations made by the customer, release Access Logistic GmbH from the performance of the failure costs or other damages. The 24 hours during loading and unloading are considered to be free of charge. Our written appointments in the transport orders are fixed dates. Verbal agreements are not valid. In case of delays or further deviations from the agreed transport order, we are to be informed immediately by telephone as well as in writing.
