View Accessorial Charges on Load List Page

Such charges take many forms and impact all modes of freight transportation services. They can either be a fixed fee or a time-based fee. Usually, time-based fees escalate until the situation creating them is closed or resolved.

- The Load details page appears on the screen. This page contains all the information about the load, including accessorial and other charges.
NOTE:
Load Service type plays an important role in determining the eligibility of the load for a specific accessorial claim. For example, if the load has an LTL service type, then the user can’t claim Layover Accessorial for that load. The eligibility based on another attribute called the Load Type is also implemented on DL Freight™ based on the business rules set by Walmart Canada and respective Carriers.
Contact your organization to find out more about load types; in case of platform-specific queries, write to us at: dlfreight.support@dltlabs.io
