items in a food-grade trailer prior to picking up, the trailer MUST be clean and a valid receipt furnished. If you neglect to do so and it is
proven that you have a dirty trailer after loading the product and the product is rejected, it is a 100% claim to be paid by the carrier in
FULL. If we are allowed on the dock during the loading process our driver is present and watching the loading and securing of the load.
We agree that the count was right and no product was loaded that was damaged. If the driver is allowed on the dock, we agree to have
him lock his own load. After the load was loaded and secured by the driver or with the driver witnessing, the shipper placed a seal on the
truck. DETENTION CAN START AFTER THREE HOURS BUT THE BROKER MUST BE NOTIFIED IN WRITING ONE HOUR BEFORE

processed food products that allow for ease of cleaning and sanitation. Prior to loading for cleaning all trailers: Step 1 (mandatory) is
trailer inspection and broom cleaning. Step 2, if needed, is a cold water washout when there is dry material on the walls or floor that
cannot be swept from the trailer by the driver. Step 3, if needed, is Hot water wash with soap when there is blood or other meat residue
present, or the trailer has a noticeable or objectionable odor. Following an interior wash on refrigerated trailers, the reefer unit should be
operated at 65 degrees to allow the interior to dry thoroughly prior to loading.

The load was hauled and delivered on time. BOL show it was accepted without incident. The freight was even paid and all was thought to have gone like any other load until after freight payment was received and suddenly there is a problem. It does not work that way. The problem needs to be addressed before the company signs BOL and tells them to go down the road.
