    I re read your load explanation and im surprised that you werent directed to go back to your second drop and give them the freight , especially if you want to or have to haul for them again. If you werent allowed on the dock then its gonna be on them for the cost of you returning. Whatever you do though dont look for opportunities to scam freight, itll catch up to you eventually. A clear conscience is priceless.

    Did you call the second reciever to see if they got ALL of their product?? Once again, WERE YOU ALLOWED ON THE DOCKS AT ANYTIME DURING LOADING OR UNLOADING????

    To be honest, if the second shipper signed off, and the last reciever said it was not theirs, then you had just gotten yourself a free pallet of electronics. But since you've made it known, now you have to return it. And good luck getting paid IF you do not have a freight contract signed for the return or get paid in cash/check when you drop it off.
