Carrier's obligations
A carrier, typically a transportation or shipping company, has specific obligations to ensure the safe and timely delivery of goods. These include taking reasonable care to protect the cargo, providing accurate shipping information, and adhering to agreed timelines. Carriers must also comply with relevant laws and regulations while being responsible for any damage or loss that occurs during transit, unless exempted by specific conditions. Ultimately, their duty is to facilitate a smooth transport process while safeguarding the interests of the parties involved, particularly the sender and recipient of the goods.
