How is the Cost of My Freight Shipment Determined?

When it comes to developing a quote for your specific freight shipping needs multiple different factors will be taken into consideration. A common misconception about freight shipping is that the price is a direct reflection of the weight of your freight, this is not the case. Listed below are some of the many factors we look at when coming up with your freight shipping quote:

  • Weight of Shipment: While the weight of your shipment is not the only factor that determines the price of your shipment it does play a role in the overall cost. Small packages will typically cost less than massive ones. If your freight shipment is not heavy enough to max out the capacity of a load, this will be considered less than load shipping (LTL freight shipping). This is typically the most affordable and flexible shipping option available.
  • Dimensions of Freight: Freight brokers work with shippers and carriers to help them get the most efficient shipping options available. Our job is to help carriers utilize all available space they have on each haul to maximize their loads. Packages with unusual or difficult dimensions can be hard to accommodate and fit. The easier the shape and size of your shipment is, the more affordable it will be to get on a load.
  • Shipping Timeline: If you need your freight delivered on a tight schedule or have a last minute shipment, this may lead to an increase in the freight shipping cost. Our team can work with you to help you find the most affordable freight shipping options for your specific needs and on your schedule.
