Consignees [noun]

The bill must not be drawn or renewed after the goods have been surrendered to the purchaser or consignee.

When the consignee accepts the draft, he receives the bill of lading, and is then permitted to put the coffee in a warehouse.

It can be picked up at the door of the shipper and delivered at the door of the consignee, entailing only two handlings.

The consignee then gets possession of the order bill of lading, which entitles him to possession of the goods.

When the goods arrive at their destination, the consignee is notified and is sent a freight bill showing the freight charges.

The parties to a bill of lading are three—the shipper, the consignee, and the transportation company.

A proper understanding of this by the shipper would save many a disappointment, and many a hard word for the consignee.

If cranes or other loading appliances belonging to the Railway are used by Consignor or Consignee, a charge of 3d.

The granting of special conditions to any particular sender or consignee is therefore legally inadmissible.

It is the responsibility of the consignee to file claim with the delivering carrier for material received in a damaged condition.
