Description
The Independent Contractor Agreement Between an Owner/Operator Truck Driver and Common Carrier Company outlines the responsibilities and relationship between the Contractor and the Carrier. It delineates the terms of transportation services where the Contractor is tasked with picking up, transporting, and delivering goods using their own equipment. Key features include insurance requirements, compensation structures, and documentation needed for payment. The agreement emphasizes the independent contractor status of the Contractor, while also mandating specific insurance coverages and the submission of necessary documents like bills of lading and proof of delivery. Furthermore, it explicitly addresses liability issues, cargo claims, and establishes procedures for handling delays or accidents. This document is vital for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in the trucking and transportation sector as it helps define roles, manage risk, and ensure compliance with federal regulations, thus facilitating smooth operational relationships between Contractors and Carriers.
