Why do you always request that Carriers pulp the load?

The primary purpose of pulping product is to protect you. It is extremely important that you do this. Our Customer partners typically set the temperature that they want to be maintained for the duration of transport. If you pulp the product at loading and find that the temperature is above or below the requested temperature, we do not want you to accept the product until it is approved by the Customer. There is too high a risk of product damage due to temperature. Pulp temperatures should always be recorded on the driver’s bill of lading so that all parties are aware of the temperature of the product when it is picked up.
