- Confirm the broker named in the transportation contract. Verify that your transportation agreement identifies AMERICAN SHIPPING NETWORK; use MC69805090 to distinguish it from similarly named companies. Note the shipment and invoice dates.
- Locate the appropriate financial-responsibility filing. Search FMCSA Licensing & Insurance using MC69805090; find the BMC-84 filing and determine which surety was responsible when the transportation was arranged.
- Prepare evidence of the unpaid charges. Include the rate confirmation, freight invoice, bill of lading, signed delivery receipt or proof of delivery, any broker payment terms, and correspondence about the unpaid amount. Show the load number and invoice balance clearly.
- Obtain the required claim form or intake procedure. Ask the confirmed bond or trust provider where motor carriers submit unpaid-freight claims and whether it needs its own claim form. Follow that intake process and save the submission receipt.
- Preserve the claim record and deadlines. Request written confirmation that the filing was accepted for review. Keep the claim correspondence, requested updates, and any stated appeal or supplementation deadlines together.
