There are separate rates which are usually higher than those for general cargo, In addition, special rates are available for homogeneous commodities in bulk, such as grain, oils, beans, minerals, etc. These commodities are cheaper in value, easier to handle and take less time in loading and discharging but are bulky in volume and quite likely occupy less space than is needed roy general cargo. There are also freight rates for containerized trat-fic.
Bill of Lading
The most important document when shipping goods by ocean freight is the bill oflading.
The bill oflading is:
a receipt of your goods given to you by the shipping company; a document of title to the goods; evidence of a contract by the shipping company to carry the goods from your port to the prot of destination.
The exporter obtains the bill of lading from the shipping company and completes it himself or gets his freight forwarder to do it. It is then returned to the shipping company. Bills of lading are normally made out in sets, which consist of a number of originals (usually three) and a number of copies.
