Find out how much a truck trip really costs before you give or accept a quote.

Frequently asked questions
How is the freight rate calculated?
Fuel cost (distance ÷ fuel average × fuel price) plus tolls, driver/helper wages, loading and other costs gives the trip cost. The profit margin you choose is added on top to give the suggested quote.
Should I count the empty return trip?
Yes, in most cases. If the truck comes back empty, tick "Truck returns empty" so the fuel for the return is included in the price.
What fuel average should I use?
Use your own truck's real average. The vehicle list fills in typical values only as a starting point.
