These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern access to and use of the website located at shipcoso.com (the "Site"), operated by COSO Logistics, LLC ("COSO Logistics," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Site — including browsing the Load Board, submitting a quote request, or signing up as a carrier — you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
COSO Logistics is a licensed freight brokerage arranging the transportation of bulk agricultural and industrial freight between shippers and third-party motor carriers. COSO Logistics is not a motor carrier and does not itself transport, take possession of, or assume responsibility for freight as a carrier. All transportation services are performed by independent, licensed and insured motor carriers.
You may use the Site only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to: (a) use the Site in any way that violates applicable federal, state, or local law; (b) attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Site, other accounts, or computer systems connected to the Site; (c) interfere with or disrupt the operation of the Site or servers/networks connected to it; (d) scrape, harvest, or otherwise systematically extract data from the Load Board or other Site content without our prior written consent; or (e) submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information through any form on the Site, including quote requests, carrier signup, or the Carrier Agreement.
The Load Board is provided for informational purposes to help carriers identify freight opportunities that may match their equipment and lanes. Load details (origin, destination, commodity, equipment, weight, mileage, and rate information) are provided on a best-efforts basis and may change, be corrected, or be removed at any time without notice. COSO Logistics does not guarantee the availability, accuracy, or continued posting of any load, and posting of a load does not constitute an offer or a binding commitment to tender freight. Rates and terms for any specific shipment are subject to a separate rate confirmation and/or carrier agreement between COSO Logistics and the carrier.
Carriers who create an account through the "Become a Carrier" quick signup or who complete the full Carrier Agreement represent that all information provided (company details, MC/DOT numbers, insurance, equipment, and banking/ACH information where applicable) is true, accurate, and current. Approval to book loads directly through the Site is at COSO Logistics' sole discretion and may be revoked at any time for non-compliance with our carrier requirements, safety issues, insurance lapses, or other business reasons. Execution of the Carrier Agreement through the Site's electronic signature process constitutes a legally binding agreement between the signing carrier and COSO Logistics, enforceable to the same extent as a handwritten signature under the U.S. ESIGN Act and applicable state law.
Submitting a quote request or contact form does not create a binding shipping contract. Rates quoted are estimates only and are subject to change based on lane, equipment, timing, accessorials, and market conditions at the time of booking. A shipment is only confirmed once COSO Logistics and the shipper agree on a rate and booking in writing (including email).
All content on the Site — including text, graphics, logos, the COSO Logistics name and branding, and the underlying Load Board software — is the property of COSO Logistics or its licensors and is protected by U.S. and international intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from any part of the Site without our prior written permission.
THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT, INCLUDING LOAD BOARD LISTINGS, ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. COSO LOGISTICS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, COSO Logistics and its officers, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, arising out of or related to your use of the Site or any transportation services arranged through it. Nothing in these Terms limits liability arising from COSO Logistics' obligations under a fully executed carrier agreement, rate confirmation, or broker-carrier contract, which are governed by the terms of that separate agreement.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless COSO Logistics from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your misuse of the Site, violation of these Terms, or violation of any law or third-party right.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising under these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Will County, Illinois.
We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
