ADDRESS CORRECTION--In the event a consignee's address is incorrect, Pilot will attempt to find the correct address. If the shipment is to be delivered to another address, a re-delivery fee will be assessed in accordance with current delivery rates.

BILLING--Shipments will be accepted with the freight charges being billed prepaid, collect or third party. The shipper and consignee are liable jointly and separately for all unpaid charges. If no block is checked on the Pilot way bill, the shipment will automatically be prepaid.
