GRAIN TRANSPORTATION TERMS
https://www.ingrambarge.com/GrainTransportationTerms.pdf
Minimum Weights: The freight due from Shipper will be based on the actual tons loaded subject to the following minimum weights (unless different amounts are stated in Carrier’s Confirmation of Barge Freight): the applicable minimum tonnages will be 1400 tons for each rake barge and 1600 tons for each box barge. However, if the capacity of the barge (or draft if so specified by the Carrier) will not allow the Shipper to load to the minimum level specified, then the charges will be based on the actual tons loaded or the tons that could have been loaded at the specified draft according to Carrier’s draft tables, whichever is greater.
