Freight Partners Group acts solely as a transportation broker and does not operate as a motor carrier. By accepting this quote or tendering freight to FPG, the customer acknowledges and agrees to be bound by FPG’s General Terms and Conditions of Service provided herein. All transportation is arranged with duly licensed motor carriers who retain full care, custody, and control of cargo during transit. FPG’s responsibility is limited to its contingent coverages only. FPG maintains Contingent General Liability (GL) with limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence / $2,000,000 aggregate, Contingent Auto Liability with limits of $2,000,000, and Contingent Cargo coverage with limits of $250,000 as shown on our Certificate of Insurance. These contingent policies do not replace or supplement the motor carrier’s primary insurance. Additional insurance is the responsibility of the customer unless separately arranged in writing with FPG for any cargo being tendered with a value that exceeds $250,000.
