How to avoid shipping mistakes

Avoid unnecessary shipping complications by following these simple tips:

Carefully count every piece when loading or unloading shipments to ensure the order matches the paperwork.
Document any visible damage on the sign-off receipt.
When you receive a shipment, make sure you are getting what you paid for.
When you send a shipment, avoid short payments of your invoices by ensuring every piece of cargo is shipped.
