For forwarders and transport companies: how to run freight orders from request to payment, work with carriers and drivers, keep trip documents together and know the margin of every order before the month is over.
To fill in a CMR consignment note, the sender enters the parties, places and dates, goods, packages, marks, gross weight and instructions; the carrier checks the count and apparent condition, writes reasoned reservations in box 18 and signs; the consignee signs and dates the receipt box at delivery. Most disputes come from vague goods descriptions, missing reservations and unsigned or undated boxes.
Agree a loss norm, a valuation price and a right of set-off in the carrier contract; weigh the cargo at loading and unloading; calculate only the shortage above the norm; send the carrier the claim with evidence; then deduct the agreed amount as a separate minus line in the final payment and pay the rest on time instead of holding the whole invoice.
