All flour suppliers will also deliver empty bags equivalent to one percent of their orders. Empty bags are to accompany flour consignments, and are to be received, loaded and carried freight free. For economic reasons suppliers may deliver bags in a single lot covering more than one parcel. Carriers may therefore be required to transport more or less than one percent empty bags depending on individual parcels awarded to successful offerors.
Carrier is to nominate a USDA-approved loading pier when and as requested by the shipper. Carrier is to be liable for all costs incurred due to failure to provide this information.
Note: Commodity, load port and intermodal point abbreviations as per USDA form KC-362. Delivery terms per USDA Notice to the Trade of April 5, 1995.
