How to get my paperwork to RM FREIGHT so that I get paid as quickly as possible (electronic copies or original paperwork)
RM accepts electronic copies of the pertinent paperwork, as long as our Customers will accept copies. If our Customers ask us for originals, you will need to mail the originals to us in order to get paid. (Most of our Customers will accept copies, but not all of them.)
How will you know whether we need originals or copies? Our RM Broker Confirmation that will tell you whether we need ORIGINALS or COPIES (see examples below).

Carrier Paperwork
1. RM load number and carrier number is critical. If we cannot identify the proper paperwork to our load number, payment will be delayed. We need your paperwork as soon as possible, but no later than within 15 days of delivery.
- Carrier must check in as ” RM Freight carrier” – NOT under the truck’s
- Bills of Lading (BOL)
- We need clear electronic copies with the driver’s and receiver’s signatures and/or stamp of Receiver (shipper
signature not required – implied with receipt of BOL). If our customers do require original Bills of Lading, the RM Freight
Rate Confirmation will tell you to mail in original BOL’s for that load.
- Verify with the RM freight agent if the load is pallet If so, have shipper indicate number of pallets in and out. Remember, if pallet exchange, and BOL’s are not marked with quantity in and out or a pallet receipt is not turned in,
you will be charged.
- Verify with RM Freight agent whether or not the customer requires lumper and pallet receipts, as well as
any other charges. The RM Freight rate confirmation must agree to all accessorial charges. Also, if we do not have these documents when the load is billed, you may not receive payment for these charges until we are paid.
- Completed carrier setup To include unaltered Master Carrier Agreement, valid insurance certificate with
RM Freight named as “Additional Insured”, W-9, and Operating Authority.
