Free time is being
squeezed at the port, the rail head and the terminal. Airfreight
terminals are especially egregious. Now waiting time has a real
cost. This is what Cast North America is telling their customers. In
a message from July 27, 2004:
Dear Valued customer:
Please note you have 1 free hour to unload goods before waiting time
occurs. Waiting time rates are $60 per hour.
What you can do? Get
your documents in our hands as quickly as possible. Airfreight? If
you are bringing in new articles that we have not previously handled
– give us a heads up – so we can consider the classification issues
and guide you accordingly. Of course, FDA, USDA, F&W and other
government agencies often intervene and delay freight. Accurate,
timely documents are essential. Call us. We have a huge library of
solutions.
