RESOURCE CENTER

Government freight is not one customer or one registration. This guide maps the markets, entry paths, insurance traps and operating controls motor carriers need before the truck moves.

A refused delivery does not automatically end Carmack liability. Motor carriers need standing terms, an immediate on-hand notice and written disposition authority.

When a receiver refuses freight, a carrier should not become an unpaid warehouse. A two-layer on-hand process creates the record, charges and authority needed to respond.
