About this move
Distance and charges

Road miles come from the route between the port or ramp and your address. Charges that only exist after the move, such as chassis days, waiting time, storage, port fees, per-diem and demurrage, are billed after delivery if they are incurred. They are listed on your quote and are not part of the estimate.

FAQ

Questions

Is this a quote?

No. It is an estimate built from carrier quotes for a move out of one gateway, plus the accessorials you switch on. The carrier sets the final price and none is bound to this figure.

How is the rate worked out?

We hold real carrier quotes at several road distances for each gateway and container size. Your rate is read between the two nearest quotes, with the carrier fuel surcharge included.

Is the chassis in the price?

The result always says. Where the carrier quotes already include 1-2 days of chassis, nothing is added. Where they do not, chassis rental is added as an extra at $40 a day, and you set the days.

What happens past the distance you hold quotes for?

We show no figure. Beyond the last quoted distance for a gateway we do not extrapolate, so the tool says so instead of guessing.

Which extra charges can I add?

The ones on the carrier accessorial schedule: clean truck fee, waiting time, dry run, hazmat, scales, liquor handling, overweight, Pier Pass, prepull, rail flip, stop-offs, reefer, residential, scaling, storage and triaxle. Pier Pass is offered only at Los Angeles / Long Beach and New York / New Jersey. Bobtail is shown for information, as a share of the round-trip rate.
