With today’s logistics, reliability, price and speed play a big part in keeping your business ahead of the competition. Having a full-time, in-house transportation department can be extremely costly for businesses. Outsourcing transportation providers, even third parties that deal with these transportation companies, is a huge part of most logistic departments. CargoBot is a new alternative that can procure carriers instantly for your shipping needs.
Transparent Pricing
With CargoBot, you get transparent, fixed pricing. When you sign your rate of confirmation, you see exactly what your carrier is being paid without extra fees added in. CargoBot charges the carrier, not you. With traditional freight brokers, the fees are not disclosed.
Making an Informed Choice
With CargoBot, you have access to all the information you need to know about your potential carriers, and of course, those you hire. You are able to view the ratings of your carrier from prior shippers. You also get access to proof of carriers’ liability and cargo insurance, contact information, and FMCSA compliance information. When you go through a freight broker, you are assigned a carrier of their choice.
No Broker Fees, No Minimums
CargoBot allows you to use their platform as often or as little as you want without charging you fees. Your selected carrier pays the fee for using CargoBot, not you.
GPS Shipment Tracking
The CargoBot platform gives you the ability to make sure that your load is moved smoothly from start to finish. You will always have the ability to track where your load is from the moment it is picked up until it is delivered via GPS. You can also communicate with the carrier directly. With traditional freight brokers, you’ll have to usually contact them to discuss your shipments status and location.
Saves You Money
Multiple carriers compete for your loads and you won’t pay intermediary costs. You negotiate directly with carriers and all of CargoBot’s fees come from the carrier, not you. CargoBot shippers see a savings using CargoBot versus traditional brokers because of their fixed standard percentage fee.
No Upfront Costs
If you qualify for a line of credit with CargoBot, you don’t have to pay your shipping costs until 30 days later. CargoBot will help you procure a carrier, without extra fees.
Electronic Real-Time Information
The CargoBot platform makes processes run smoother by sending, receiving and storing all documents, including BOL’s, POD’s and Rate Confirmations electronically through their dedicated portal.
An Extension of Your Company
While you might not have a shipping department, CargoBot is virtually an extension of your company. Their team is dedicated to matching your routes with carriers by designing and investing in marketing campaigns for you. They learn your working lanes and create ecosystems of carriers that meet your inbound and outbound requirements.
CargoBot Saves You Time
Shippers spend less time managing their shipments with the CargoBot platform. CargoBot also has a dedicated support team to help find carriers for your loads.
