Accessorial charges are extra fees added to freight invoices for services beyond standard pickup and delivery. They're one of the most common sources of billing disputes — and most are preventable with proper planning.

|---|---|---|
| Detention | Driver waits beyond 2 hours at pickup or delivery | $50–$100/hour |
| TONU | Load cancelled after truck is dispatched | $150–$300+ |
| Layover | Driver must wait overnight | $150–$300/night |
| Liftgate | No dock — freight needs liftgate | $75–$150 |
| Inside Delivery | Freight moved beyond the truck tailgate | $100–$250 |
| Lumper Service | Third-party labor to unload freight | $150–$400 |
| Redelivery | Consignee unavailable; second attempt needed | $100–$200 |
