Late Charges
Ristow Trucking presets delivery appointments for all consignees as a matter of policy and procedure. We understand the frustration receiving docks face with “NO Shows” however as an LTL carrier, we cannot and will not be held liable for fines. As an LTL carrier, we have multiple customers and shipments on every route. If any one of these shipments is held up at a delivery, each subsequent shipment is delayed. We accept our responsibility to notify the interested parties with a timely response regarding delayed shipments. Our drivers are equipped with mobile phones and instructions to call both Ristow Dispatch and the consignee if they are delayed.
