Section 1

Acceptance of terms

These Terms of Use form an agreement between you and Blue Mail Transport, a transport and logistics company based in the United States. By accessing bluemailtransport.com, submitting a form, requesting a quote, or using our services, you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our website or services.

If you use our services on behalf of a company, you confirm that you have the authority to bind that company to these terms.

Section 2

Use of the website

You may use our website for lawful purposes only. You agree not to:

  • Submit false, misleading, or another person’s information
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to our website, servers, or systems
  • Introduce viruses, malicious code, or anything that disrupts the site
  • Use automated tools to scrape or overload the website
  • Use the site in any way that violates applicable law

We may suspend or restrict access to the website at any time if we believe these terms have been broken.

Section 3

Our services

Blue Mail Transport arranges and provides freight transportation by road, air, and sea, along with related services such as warehousing and customs support, within the United States and internationally. Descriptions of services on our website are for general information. The specific terms of each shipment, including routing, mode, and handling, are confirmed with you before we begin.

We may use carriers, airlines, shipping lines, and other partners to complete a shipment. Their own conditions of carriage may apply to your cargo in addition to these terms.

Section 4

Quotes and pricing

A quote is based on the information you give us, such as route, cargo size, weight, and service level. It is an estimate until we confirm it in writing. If the actual shipment differs from what you described, or if carrier surcharges, fuel adjustments, storage, duties, taxes, or other charges apply, the price may change. We will tell you about any change before we proceed wherever possible.

Payment is due on the terms stated in your confirmed quote or invoice. We may hold cargo until amounts owed for that shipment have been paid.

Section 5

Your responsibilities

When you ship with us, you agree to:

  • Describe the cargo accurately, including contents, value, weight, dimensions, and any special handling needs
  • Pack the goods properly so they can withstand normal handling and transport
  • Label shipments clearly and provide correct sender and recipient details
  • Supply complete and truthful documents needed for transport and customs
  • Confirm that you own the goods or have the right to ship them

You are responsible for any loss, delay, fine, or cost that results from incorrect or incomplete information.

Section 6

Prohibited and restricted goods

We do not carry goods that are illegal or that the law prohibits from being shipped along the route. This includes illegal drugs, weapons and explosives without proper authorization, counterfeit goods, stolen property, and materials that break sanctions or export controls.

Dangerous goods, perishable items, live animals, and high-value cargo need our approval in advance and may require special handling, documents, or carriers. Contact us before you ship them.

We may refuse, hold, or stop any shipment we believe is unlawful or unsafe, and we may report it to the authorities. You remain responsible for all resulting costs.

Section 7

Customs and international shipments

International shipments must comply with the export, import, customs, and sanctions laws of every country involved. Unless we agree otherwise in writing, you are responsible for duties, taxes, tariffs, inspection fees, and any penalties charged by customs or government authorities. Customs inspections, document checks, and regulatory holds are outside our control and may affect delivery.

Section 8

Delivery times

We plan every shipment carefully, and the transit times we give are estimates, not guarantees. Weather, port congestion, customs clearance, carrier schedules, strikes, accidents, and other events beyond our control can cause delays. Unless we agree to a guaranteed delivery date in writing, we are not responsible for losses caused by late delivery.

Section 9

Loss, damage, and liability

We take care of every shipment while it is in our custody. Our responsibility for loss of or damage to cargo is governed by the confirmed shipment terms, the conditions of the carrier handling the cargo, and the national or international transport rules that apply to the mode of transport, which may limit the amount recoverable.

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

  • We are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost profits, lost business, or lost opportunity.
  • We are not liable for loss or damage caused by the nature or inadequate packing of the goods, incorrect information from you, acts of authorities, or events beyond our reasonable control.
  • Our total liability for any claim relating to a shipment will not exceed the limits allowed under the rules that apply to that shipment.

If your cargo is of high value, ask us about cargo insurance before it ships. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law.

Section 10

Claims

Please inspect your shipment on delivery and note any visible damage or shortage on the delivery document. Report any loss or damage to us in writing at info@bluemailtransport.com as soon as you discover it, with your shipment details, photos where possible, and supporting invoices. Carriers and transport rules often set strict time limits for claims, so prompt notice protects your right to recover.

Section 11

Intellectual property

The Blue Mail Transport name, logo, website design, text, graphics, and other content are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. You may view and print pages for your own business use, but you may not copy, modify, distribute, or reuse our content for other purposes without our written permission.

Section 12

Disclaimers

We work to keep the website accurate and available, but it is provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not promise that it will be error-free, uninterrupted, or free from harmful components. Information on the website is general in nature and is not legal, customs, or tax advice. To the extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties not expressly stated in these terms.

Section 13

Indemnification

You agree to defend and compensate Blue Mail Transport against claims, fines, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, that arise from your breach of these terms, the goods you ask us to ship, inaccurate information or documents you provide, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

Section 14

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the laws of the state where Blue Mail Transport is headquartered, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that cannot be settled informally will be brought in the courts of that state, and you agree to their jurisdiction, except where mandatory transport or consumer laws provide otherwise. If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.

Section 15

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The current version is always available on this page. Your continued use of the website or services after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms. Shipments already confirmed continue under the terms that applied when they were confirmed.
