a driver does not turn in logs, bill of ladings that belong to a third party, or fuel receipts to the company that driver is leased to or employed by? Researched all threads but did not find this specific issue addressed. What can be done by the company to the driver? Please refer where the legal ramifications of such actions can be found. Thanks!
What if...

Other than losing your job, probably not much...

No BOL? No pay. Then they may "fix" your DAC for ya.

Is your hubby that mad? lol
Copies of BOL's can be faxed. Fuel is documented on monthly bill. He won't be doing anything but hurting himself and his paycheck. Say goodbye to trucking. Don't need any legal ramifications because he ain't hurting them. -
So there isn't anything that can be done in the situation described? I would have thought that the company that the BOLs belonged to could charge back the cost of the load to the carrier/driver.

It wouldn't be the first time bills disappeared. The carrier would just request a signed copy from the customer(s), which they would fax over. Most big carriers have Customer Service Reps that are good at dealing with odd situations and can lie up a story from way back. Besides that if the customer saw a way out of not paying the freight bill, they wouldn't get anymore freight. The only charge backs could be from damaged freight. A piece of paper can be replaced.
