A claim packet checklist for a shipper's claims contact and the carrier. It shows the six open claims and what each is missing, how long each has been open, the required documents and where each comes from, what each packet status means, and the filing steps.

Frequently asked questions
Who decides that a packet is sufficient?
The claims specialist. Legal questions go to legal advisers and are not decided in this document.
Why is the age of each claim shown?
So the oldest claims are reviewed first and a missing document does not sit unseen.
What does Cargo claim packet checklist help me do?
Assemble each cargo claim packet with every document traceable to the load, name what each incomplete packet still needs, and file the oldest claim.
Who reads and maintains this page?
Hollowell claims contact and the carrier; prepared by the Quartzline claims coordinator. The claims specialist reviews it.
When is the page ready to share with the client?
Sent after every incomplete packet names its missing item, holder and date, and the embedded board is filtered to the client.
What do visitors see in the public link?
The public link opens the full page without sign-in. The embedded Shipment exception, accessorial and claim record view and the live Dashboards blocks are separate items that need FuseBase sign-in and workspace access, so a visitor without access does not see their live records.
