Built for high-volume freight ledgers
Efficient recovery of many invoices owed by a single credit account customer — fuel surcharges, accessorials and base rates together.
Transport & freight
Debt recovery for transport & freight operators
Fuel surcharges, accessorial charges, abandoned freight and credit account arrears are the overdue-invoice problem of road freight, couriers, linehaul and 3PL operators. Merion recovers them efficiently on a commission-only basis.
Transport and freight businesses are exposed to credit risk at every point in the delivery cycle. Freight invoices include base rates that get paid and surcharges — fuel levies, after-hours delivery fees, re-delivery charges, tail-lift and accessorial charges — that get disputed or quietly ignored. Credit account customers in 3PL and linehaul relationships run arrears across dozens of weekly invoices before a supplier draws the line. Abandoned freight creates its own category: goods left in a depot or warehouse generate storage charges that the original consignee has no interest in paying and no obligation the carrier can enforce without proper documentation.
Merion recovers commercial accounts for road freight carriers, courier businesses, linehaul operators and third-party logistics providers. We handle high-volume, lower-value invoice batches efficiently, move quickly on accounts where debtors are mobile or entities are restructured, and apply a professional recovery process grounded in your freight terms and consignment documentation. For 3PL and credit account relationships, we work the full arrears balance — not just the most recent invoice.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you work with road freight, courier, linehaul and 3PL operators?
Yes — all transport and freight business types are clients we work with. Whether the account is a single disputed invoice or a full credit account ledger in arrears, we recover it efficiently.
How are fuel surcharge and accessorial charge disputes handled?
We review the freight rate agreement and the specific charges in dispute before acting. Where surcharges are properly included in the freight terms, we recover them as part of the total invoice — disputes are assessed factually before any contact is made.
What does recovery cost?
Commission-only on what we recover, agreed in writing before we start. The initial appraisal is free, with no obligation to proceed.
