Helpful Hints

"Shouldn't the shipper arrange the freight?"

If you are dealing with a shipper you do not regularly trade with, you should probably ask yourself "how well do I know this shipper ?". After all, the person best equipped to look out for your interests, is you. Even if you know the shipper well, you should keep in mind that ultimately you, the consignee, pays the freight and it would therefore be good policy for you to nominate the service you use to transport your goods.
