The Trucking Agreement Contract is essential for establishing a formal business relationship between transportation service providers and their clients in Canada. This agreement is typically used when a company requires ongoing freight transportation services and needs to formalize the arrangement with a carrier. The document covers crucial elements such as service scope, pricing, safety requirements, and regulatory compliance under Canadian federal and provincial laws. It's particularly important for businesses engaging in regular shipping activities, whether interprovincial or local, and ensures compliance with Canadian transportation regulations including the Motor Vehicle Transport Act, Hours of Service Regulations, and provincial highway traffic laws. The agreement should be customized based on specific operational requirements, cargo types, and geographic scope of services.
