    I hadn’t driving in a few months and when I did it wasn’t for long maybe a couple months until I got injured. When we’re going to pick up a load and get there, that would be arrived at shipper correct? They’re the ones shipping the trailer away.. and when I get to my destination with the trailer that’ll be the receiver? Or is it the total opposite.. thanks!

    No trust me I usually have a lot of common sense but up until I gave the example of the shipper being the one that ships out the trailer, it honestly confused me for the longest time

    I guess now is not a good time to discuss a crossdock.

    Shipper is the guy paying to have his freight moved.

    Carrier is the guy with the truck.

    Receiver is the guy who gets the freight at the end of the run.
