Thompson Line Demurrage Program Reminder
March 14, 2007 -- As part of our commitment to our customer service, Thompson Line strives to meet the equipment needs of all our customers. In order to do so, it requires the prompt return of equipment so that it may be made available for other customers.
So that we may continue to provide the highest quality, on-time shipping services, Thompson Line accrues demurrage charges for equipment shipped to the Cayman Islands, which is held past the allowable "free time."
