We had a carrier pickup for us and deliver to our dock. They used a reefer. The product was palletized. The freight had shifted so badly that 11 skids had been damaged. The BOL was signed refused and the driver that delivered knew there was a problem. This was in July (July 13). We filed the claim Sept. 21st. because this is when the client claimed.
The carrier is saying that we were too late even though they knew about the issue and ought to have known a claim was coming because they were the connecting carrier. They said there is a limit of 60 days and also tried to skirt liability by claiming other things.
Is the carrier right?
Thanks
