Shipping Information

Customer Options

Freight Collect – LTL or Heavy Hauler
This is ideal for shipments coming into your facility. Companies purchasing significant amounts of products requiring LTL movement are setting up their own accounts with the freight haulers, allowing themselves to enjoy large discounts translating into freight dollar savings. Caution: With this option the “Ship To” party (receiving party) MUST have an open credit account established with the freight company handling the order, or the carrier will demand a check before they will leave the shipment. With an open credit account established, the carrier simply invoices the receiving party at a later date.

Freight 3rd Party Bill – LTL or Heavy Hauler
This is the best option when you are shipping to a miscellaneous location and you wish to have the freight bill sent to a different location. PRP will type the 3rd Party Bill location in the body of the bill of lading. 3rd Party must have an open credit account established with the shipping carrier and will be direct invoiced by the carrier later.

Customer Handled Arrangements – LTL & Heavy Hauler
This will be done primarily when our customer is using a Heavy Hauler, although they may wish to do it with LTL shipments also. Our customer will set up all trucking pick-up and delivery arrangements with their selected carrier. Our customer will need to coordinate the order pick-up date and time with a PRP representative.
