AMA Services
Time Critical
When your shipment is Time Critical, AMA has the Solution. Just follow these simple procedures:
- PICK UP MUST BE CALLED IN and an AMA CUSTOMER SERVICE REP OR A DISPATCHER
must be notified of the critical nature of a specific shipment on the call in.
- On INBOUND ROUTED SHIPMENTS, the consignee who routes the shipment should take
precaution and notify our personnel of this time critical shipment. (DO NOT RELY on the
shipper to make arrangements. As their errant handling will result in the unsuccessful
handling of this shipment.)
The shipper SHOULD NOT just mark the Bill of Lading "Hot Rush, Deliver by AM".
Contact is essential for proper monitoring of shipment.
- CHECK with our personnel for applicable service points.
- TIME CRITICAL SERVICE CHARGES will be applied in addition to normal pricing.
- RURAL SERVICE AREA outside major market cities may be assessed at a higher rate than listed.
- TIME CRITICAL SERVICE should be indicated on the Bill of Lading by stamp or hand written
and HIGHLIGHTED. In the event that this designation is not indicated but services are
requested and performed, the additional T/C charges will be enforcable.
- Your shipment will be MONITORED from pick up to delivery. We can now NOTIFY you, the
customer of any delays or problems that exist.
- This service is subject to NORMAL BUSINESS CONDITIONS. Money back returns will not be
applicable on late shipments due to bad weather, state of emergency or war, act of god or
other unusual situations that may prevent the control of normal or prudent operations.
Your communications and compliance of procedures is essential to the successful handling of
these shipments.
