Put in the lane, the weight and the distance and see what each carrier would charge — base rate, fuel surcharge, customs and transit days, totalled so you compare landed cost rather than the headline.
Questions people ask
Why is my small consignment priced the same as a heavier one?
Minimum charge. Light loads are almost always priced at the minimum, so the per-kg rate you negotiated does not apply — negotiate the minimum instead.
What is volumetric weight?
Air and parcel freight charge on actual or volumetric weight, whichever is greater. A light, bulky crate is priced as though it were heavy.
Are these real prices?
They come from live rate cards published by carriers on Unity & Utility. Sign in to book, insure and pay for the load.
