What happens if the Bill of Lading is not used?
A fee of $35 or more will be assessed and delivery can be delayed. If it is not used the carrier may attempt to collect funds from the consignee before delivering the freight. Or, the carrier may deliver the freight but eventually bill the consignee. In rare cases if the carrier bills the consignee or shipper and the invoice is paid it is impossible to un-do the payment. Since 100% of the time the amount invoice by the carrier will be higher than what Redhawk would charge this is a costly mistake.
