Different Shipment Types

Single Shipment

A Single Shipment is used for one specific load with a defined origin, destination, and schedule.

• Best for one-off or standard freight moves

• Carriers can quote, negotiate, and be booked on this shipment

• The shipment progresses through the full lifecycle (posted → booked → delivered)

Multi-Shipment Project

A Multi-Shipment Project is designed for moves that include multiple related shipments under one project.

• Ideal for projects with repeated or phased shipments (e.g., construction projects, recurring site moves)

• Each shipment is managed individually but grouped under a single project for organization and visibility

• Helps track progress, pricing, and carriers across multiple loads tied to the same initiative

Quotes Only Shipment

A Quotes Only Shipment is used when you want pricing information but do not intend to book the shipment at that time.

• Useful for budgeting, planning, or market rate checks

• Carriers can submit quotes, but the shipment cannot be booked

• No commitment to move freight, used for pricing visibility only
