C.B. (Carriage By Carrier)

C.B. (Carriage By Carrier) refers to the legal framework governing the transportation of goods by a carrier, such as a trucking company, rail, or shipping line. It defines the responsibilities, rights, and liabilities of both parties during transit. Essentially, it sets the rules for how goods are moved, who is responsible if damage or loss occurs, and the conditions under which the carrier operates. Understanding C.B. helps parties ensure proper handling of shipments, clarify obligations, and address disputes related to freight movement.
