This rules publication applies for UPS Freight (identified herein as
Carrier). It explains Carriers extended services as well as the rules and
conditions of service that apply on shipments moving under other
publications, pricing agreements, or in customer contracts which show this
document as a governing publication. Where reference is made, in other
publications, pricing agreements or contracts to Carriers current rules or
UPGF 102 Series rules, this rules publication shall be used to determine all
rules, fuel surcharges, accessorial charges and special service fees. Where
reference is made, in other publications, pricing agreements or contracts to
OVNT 102 Series rules or MTRG 100 Series rules, this rules publication shall
be used to determine all rules, fuel surcharges, accessorial charges and
special service fees.
2.
Exceptions to any of the items in this publication will be noted in
customer specific pricing agreements, statements of agreed pricing or
contracts that apply for individual customers. Carrier, in accordance with
its obligations under the Title 49 USC, Section 13710, shall provide to the
shipper, on request of the shipper, this publication or any other written or
electronic copy of the rate, classification, rules, and practices upon which
any rate applicable to its shipment or agreed to between the shipper and
Carrier is based. In addition, this publication appears on Carriers internet
site and may be accessed at any time, by any shipper without cost.
3.
In an effort to provide its customers with quality service and
competitive rates, certain commodities are shipped at less than full value.
Carrier encourages its customers to review this publication as some items may
be subject to limitations of liability, released values or other requirements
that may relate directly to your shipment. (Therefore, all shippers are
further encouraged to evaluate their personal or corporate cargo insurance
polices so they may ship their goods at the lowest possible rate while still
being insured for full value.)
4.
Unless otherwise provided, when provisions of this tariff are in
conflict with those published in individual contracts and / or tariffs, such
contracts and / or tariffs, to the extent of their application, will apply.
5.
Where a rule published in this tariff covers the same rule published
in the National Motor Freight Classification, STB NMF 100 Series, such rule
published herein, to the extent of its application, will apply in lieu of the
rule published in STB NMF 100 Series.
6.
Except as
otherwise provided, or otherwise stated on the bill of lading, and unless the
shipper has agreed to accept responsibility, additional charges for special
services which exceed the normal pickup, line haul, and delivery service
defined by item 750, shall be collected from the party requesting or
requiring the service irrespective of whether the line haul charges are
prepaid or collect. In the event the party requesting or requiring the
service does not pay or is unwilling to pay, Carrier reserves the right to
assess the charges against the payor of the freight charges.
7.

any billing or invoicing to the party responsible for payment.
9.
Reissued
tariffs, items or parts of items will cancel previously issued tariffs, items
or party of items, or publications referenced thereto. The term series
implies the most current tariff in effect at time of shipment. Where an item
is suffixed with an alphabet letter, the letter A, cancels the original item
not so suffixed, B cancels A, C cancels B. etc.
10.

current base rates, refers to the Carriers base rates in effect on the
date of shipment. The term non-frozen base rates, refers to base rates
that are subject to (and change with) Carriers General Rate Increase. The
term frozen base rates, refers to base rates that are not subject to (and
do not change with) Carriers General Rate Increase.
11.
In the event
