Where this section sits in the code
  1. Title 13: Uniform Commercial Code
  2. Division 2: Sales
  3. CHAPTER 5: PERFORMANCE

Where the seller is required or authorized to send the goods to the buyer and the contract does not require him to deliver them at a particu-lar destination, then unless otherwise agreed he must

(a) Put the goods in the possession of such a carrier and make such a contract for their transportation as may be reasonable having regard to the nature of the goods and other circumstances of the case; and

(b) Obtain and promptly deliver or tender in due form any document necessary to enable the buyer to obtain possession of the goods or other-wise required by the agreement or by usage of trade; and

(c) Promptly notify the buyer of the shipment.

Failure to notify the buyer under paragraph (c) or to make a proper contract under paragraph (a) is a ground for rejection only if material delay or loss ensues.
