Types of Alternate Party Billing

  • Third Party Billing
    A separate entity (the third party) covers the shipping costs, rather than the sender or recipient.

  • Recipient Billing
    The recipient is responsible for shipping charges through their carrier account.

  • Collect
    Shipping charges are collected from the recipient upon delivery.

    • Check with your carrier representative to confirm if your account qualifies for Collect billing.
