Terms of Service
Terms and conditions governing our commercial dispatch coordination, carrier agency representation, operational standards, and SMS communications.
Welcome to Fleet Core Logistics (“FC Logistics,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). By accessing our website (fclogistics.us), submitting carrier onboarding forms, engaging our dispatch services, executing a Carrier Dispatch Agreement, or opting in to receive SMS text messages, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use our services or website.
1. Scope of Dispatch Services & Representation
FC Logistics provides professional truck dispatch coordination and administrative support services to licensed commercial motor carriers and owner-operators. By utilizing our services, you acknowledge and agree:
- Bona Fide Dispatch Agency: FC Logistics operates strictly within the scope of a written carrier dispatch agreement and pursuant to FMCSA regulations. We act as an authorized administrative agent for the motor carrier, representing your authority to freight brokers and shippers.
- Not a Motor Carrier or Broker: FC Logistics is an independent dispatch management service. We do not assume common carrier liability, issue bills of lading under our own name, or act as an unauthorized freight broker.
- Lawful Commercial Use: You agree to provide accurate operating credentials, valid tax documentation, and use our platform and services strictly for lawful commercial freight transportation.
2. SMS Terms and Conditions
When you opt in to receive text messages from FC Logistics, the following legally binding terms apply to our SMS program:
2.1 SMS Consent & Opt-In Method
You may opt in to receive SMS text messages by completing an online opt-in form on our website (such as our SMS Consent Form), checking the SMS consent box on carrier onboarding or contact forms, or executing a written Carrier Dispatch Agreement containing explicit SMS opt-in terms. Your mobile number will never be enrolled without prior affirmative consent.
2.2 Types of SMS Communications & Sample Message
If consent has been granted, messages transmitted by FC Logistics may include:
- Dispatch assignments, rate confirmations, and load offer details
- Shipper/receiver appointment windows and facility directions
- Route optimization recommendations and weather/traffic delay advisories
- In-transit driver check-call verifications
- Detention, TONU, layover accessorial notices, and payment remittances
Message frequency varies depending on active dispatch load volume, driver staging, and ongoing operational transit coordination.
Message and data rates may apply. Carriers are solely responsible for all cellular network charges assessed by their mobile carrier.
You can opt out at any time by replying STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT to any message. We will send a final cancellation confirmation.
For customer support or questions regarding text messaging, reply HELP or contact our dispatch team directly at (205) 201-1354 or official@fclogistics.us.
Mobile carriers (including AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Sprint, US Cellular, and regional providers) are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Delivery is subject to effective cellular transmission and subscriber location.
Mobile telephone numbers and SMS opt-in consent will not be sold, rented, leased, or shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All SMS records are governed by our Privacy Policy.
4. Fees, Compensation & Invoicing
Fees for dispatch management services are outlined in each client's individually executed Carrier Dispatch Agreement:
- Agreed Fee Structure: Dispatch fees may be structured as an agreed percentage of the gross freight rate confirmation or a flat rate per load, with zero hidden setup charges.
- Direct Carrier Payment: Freight brokers and shippers pay the motor carrier directly (or via the carrier's designated factoring company). FC Logistics invoices the carrier separately for agreed dispatch services.
- Factoring & Accessorial Support: We assist in submitting completed paperwork packets (rate confirmation, signed Proof of Delivery, scale tickets, lumper receipts) to facilitate rapid funding.
