Preventing Claims Nightmares With Simple Proof | Episode 334

A single freight claim can wipe out a month of profit if the basics aren’t handled right. In this episode, we break down why claims spiral—unclear ownership, weak documentation, missing PODs, and insurance blind spots—and share real examples of where things went wrong and how to prevent them.

We also cover the key checkpoints at pickup and delivery, how FOB terms affect responsibility, and why relying on contingent cargo or reefer breakdown coverage can backfire. The solution: tighter carrier vetting, clearer rate confirmations, and a solid claims playbook to protect your margins.
