What is freight collect?
"Freight Collect" is a term used in the freight moving business
that means that the freight will be paid by the person receiving
the freight. The alternative would be "Freight Prepaid." If you
order something, and you pay the shipper for shipping, then they
will pay the charges the trucking company charges to move the item.
This amount could be more or less than what you give the shipper.
If you tell the shipper that you will pay the cost when it arrives,
then they will ship it "freight collect," meaning the trucking
company will need a check payable to them when they deliver your
item. If you have an account with a certain trucking company, then
you can request that the shipper use that company so that you maybe
billed. It will still be "Freight Collect," but will be
automatically billed to you by the company that you use.
Most of time "Freight Collect" use in china shipping containers.
