Shippers & Receivers - Good or Bad Load O' Freight That Just Can't Wait. Had a good or bad experience with a shipper or receiver?

If my memory serves, I always had to pay first if the dock used a lumper service. The only times that was not true was when the company I worked for had a standing arrangement with the dock.

Maybe this is a newbie question, but what the ##)(* am I being expected to pay for? I get paid to take a load from A to B, and now you're telling me I have to pay someone ELSE to unload it for me?????

It isn't out of your pocket . The carrier will reimburse you . If OOIDA was worth their membership fees this practice and unpaid detention time would have ended long ago .
