How to read a freight estimate
Know what a result tells you, and which details you still need to confirm before moving your goods.
Read guideCommon questions
Know before you go.
Do I need an account to compare estimates?
You can use the current Cargo.it estimate calculator without an account. The external provider may require an account to request or book a service.
Can I save my results?
Yes. Use Save to workspace below returned estimates. Saved results stay in this browser on this device. They are snapshots, not bookings or reserved prices.
Can I track a shipment here?
Shipment tracking and Cargo AI are planned features. They are not connected in the current version.
Does a general estimate cover special cargo?
Do not treat a general estimate as approval for special cargo. Discuss your exact goods, route and handling requirements with a suitable provider.
