Common use of Shipper Load and Count Clause in Contracts

Shipper Load and Count. All loads are considered shipper load and count and consignee unload unless arrangements are made at the time of the request for pricing or before the freight is tendered for shipment. The consignor is responsible for supplying and applying seals, and the consignee should break all seals. A consignee’s failure to use a specialized stamp or form as a delivery receipt for a shipment will not invalidate any other form of delivery receipt obtained by the underlying transportation provider. Furthermore, a consignor’s or consignee’s failure to record the seal number of a shipment will not render us or the underlying transportation provider liable for shortage in that shipment.
