C.O.D. Service To use, check the box marked "COD Delivery" in our software or on our shipment form and state the amount required for pickup. Be sure to include the telephone number of the recipient. For collection of the C.O.D. amount, we will accept money orders, cashier’s checks, certified checks, company checks or personal checks. Checks are accepted at shipper's risk. Cash and other cash-negotiable items are not accepted. A handling charge of $7.95 per shipment is applied for this service. If the recipient cannot be located or fails or refuses for any reason to pay the C.O.D. amount, the shipment will be returned to the Shipper within three business days of the final delivery attempt. Amount will be collected at the shipper’s sole risk, including, but not limited to, risk of non-payment, fraud or forgery, and Overnite Express will not be liable for such occurrences. C.O.D. amount is guaranteed to be returned to the Shipper within three business days of the final pickup attempt though most returns are made the day following delivery. The maximum C.O.D. amount is $25,000.00 per shipment. THE C.O.D. AMOUNT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A DECLARED VALUE. Generally, our delivery commitment times for goods shipped via C.O.D. service are the same as for our other services; however, our delivery commitment time is 90 minutes later than the selected delivery deadline. Driver will wait five minutes for payment before leaving destination.

We offer C.O.D. service consisting of carriage of goods to the recipient, collection of the payment instrument issued by or on behalf of the recipient and made payable to the shipper, and delivery of the payment instrument to the shipper. The shipper of goods via our C.O.D. service is responsible for specifying on the Shipment Form the amount of the check or money order to be collected (the "C.O.D. amount"). Performance of the C.O.D. service will not constitute us as the shipper’s agent for any purpose, including but not limited to, completion of sale of the goods by the shipper to the recipient.

C.O.D. Service is not available to non-account holders.
