Procedures and Dispatch Requirements:

• You will receive a printed Load Confirmation for each load you move for SPI confirming the details/terms of the freight move as per agreement by phone.
•  Every load must be confirmed in writing with our system generated Load Confirmation number (SPT-3######).
• Sign the confirmation prior to loading to indicate your acceptance and return by fax or email to the dispatcher listed on the load confirmation sheet you received.

SPI will only pay carriers who are issued an SPI Load Confirmation which is identified with our logo and a number in the form of "SPT-3######" at the top of each form sent to you prior to pick up of the load.  The instructions for submitting your invoice for payment are at the bottom of each Load Confirmation.  The Load Confirmation also indicates the remittance party and address we have on file for your payment.  Please ensure this is accurate. Any discrepancy may affect our ability to remit payment to you in a timely manner.  In the event of a dispute, the SPI Carrier Transportation Agreement will supersede the Load Confirmation or any arrangements discussed verbally.
