Terms and Conditions

General Terms and Conditions (AGB) – EH Transport GmbH

1. Scope
These General Terms and Conditions (AGB) apply to all contracts, deliveries, and other services between EH Transport GmbH, Mirabellenweg 2A, 61381 Friedrichsdorf, Germany (hereinafter referred to as the “Contractor”), and its customers (hereinafter referred to as the “Client”), unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing. Any differing terms and conditions of the Client shall not be recognized unless the Contractor expressly agrees to their validity in writing.

2. Conclusion of Contract
A contract shall only come into effect upon written confirmation by the Contractor or with the commencement of service execution. All offers are non-binding and subject to change unless expressly stated as binding.

3. Scope of Services
EH Transport GmbH provides services in the areas of transport, logistics, warehousing, and import/export of goods. The type and scope of services shall be determined by the individual order or quotation. The Contractor reserves the right to perform partial services, provided such services are reasonable for the Client.

4. Obligations of the Client
The Client is obligated to provide all necessary information and documentation required for the proper execution of transport services in due time. The Client must ensure that the goods are properly packed, labeled, and compliant with all legal regulations applicable to transport (e.g., customs, hazardous materials, or safety regulations).

5. Prices and Terms of Payment
All agreed prices are exclusive of any applicable statutory value-added tax (VAT). Invoices are payable without deduction within 14 days from the invoice date unless otherwise agreed. In the event of late payment, the Contractor is entitled to charge default interest at a rate of 9% above the applicable base interest rate. Further claims for damages remain unaffected.

6. Liability
The liability of EH Transport GmbH is governed by statutory provisions, in particular under the German Commercial Code (HGB) and, in the case of international transport, under the Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road (CMR). Liability is limited to the typical, foreseeable damage. Further liability, especially for loss of profit or consequential damages, is excluded unless caused by gross negligence or intent.

7. Insurance
The Contractor maintains transport liability insurance in accordance with the statutory requirements. At the Client’s request, additional transport insurance may be arranged at the Client’s expense.

8. Force Majeure
Events of force majeure (e.g., natural disasters, strikes, wars, governmental actions, pandemics, or technical disruptions) release the Contractor from its performance obligations for the duration and extent of the disruption. Claims for damages are excluded in such cases.

9. Data Protection
Personal data is processed exclusively in accordance with statutory data protection regulations. Details can be found in our Privacy Policy.

10. Jurisdiction and Applicable Law
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). The place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from the contractual relationship, to the extent legally permissible, shall be Bad Homburg v. d. Höhe.

11. Severability Clause
Should individual provisions of these Terms and Conditions be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. In place of the invalid provision, a valid regulation shall apply that most closely reflects the economic intent of the original provision.
