FAQ
Proper packaging prevents damage. All shipments should be protected with proper packaging in compliance with the NMFC. Stack cartons squarely on a skid with no overhang. Box flaps and corrugations should face up. Make the top surface as flat as possible. Secure cartons to the skid with banding, stretch-wrap or breakaway adhesive.
Complete names and addresses must be visible on each piece to ensure your entire shipment arrives intact. The shipper and consignee information must match the Bill of Lading information exactly, and your labels must be legible and complete.
The Bill of Lading is a legal contract between the shipper and the carrier. The Bill of Lading states exactly what is being shipped, from where it’s coming and where it’s going.
Call your shipper to request shipment pickup. Or request your pickup online. When your driver arrives to pick up the shipment, give him or her the Bill of Lading.
After pickup, use our online tracking tools to follow your shipment as it moves through our system to final delivery.
