1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using https://peregrinecargo.com (the “Site”) or engaging Peregrine Cargo (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) for transportation and related logistics services (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions (“Terms”). If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or our Services.

2. Scope of Services

We provide freight transportation solutions—including Dry-Van, Refrigerated, Truckload, and LTL shipments— as well as Lease-to-Own vehicle programs and other ancillary logistics‐support offerings. Specific service details (rates, transit times, equipment, and insurance) are confirmed in individual rate confirmations or written contracts (“Shipping Agreement”).

3. Quotes, Orders & Execution

• Quotes are valid for the period stated in the quote e-mail or, if unstated, for 7 calendar days.
• A Shipping Agreement is formed once you accept a quote in writing, via our customer portal, or via e-mail.
• Any change to origin, destination, weight, class, or service level may result in an updated rate.

4. Payment Terms

Unless otherwise agreed, all invoices are due net 30 days from invoice date. Late payments are subject to 1.5% interest per month (or the maximum rate permitted by law). You are responsible for all reasonable collection costs and attorney fees incurred in recovering overdue amounts.

5. Shipment, Title & Risk of Loss

Title and risk of loss transfer to you (the “Shipper”) upon delivery of the cargo to the carrier at origin. Our liability is limited to that provided under 49 U.S.C. §14706 (the “Carmack Amendment”) or as otherwise set forth in a written Shipping Agreement. For higher declared values you must request, and we must confirm, supplemental cargo insurance in writing.
