If you inspect the contents of your boxes before you accept them, then they have to, regardless of whether they are slowed down at all. If they complain, that's their problem. if you just accept them and then find out later the contents are damaged, you may have no recourse to go them for damages. Doesn't matter even if it takes you 30 minutes to inspect the goods, they have to respect your wish to do so.
You could also write on the consignment note "goods accepted subject to inspection", which would allow him to go, but if they wouldn't accept that, then you could go right ahead with your inspection.
