What answers will I see after submitting the container shipping form?

You will see the live ocean base rate, estimated transit time and routing, itemized surcharges (BAF, Warfage, BL, THC/ISPS where applicable), optional door pickup/delivery totals, and guidance for free time/demurrage, cutoff/closing, HS code/duties links, and insurance options.

Which inputs are required to get a quote?

Required fields include First Name, Last Name, Phone, Email, Origin, Destination, Commodity, Weight (lb), and Declared Value (USD). Optional fields refine accuracy: container counts (20' and/or 40'), goods type, HazMat, distances for drayage, delivery options, insurance and insured value, car/boat quantity, loader, shipping date, origin ZIP, and cargo description.

How are charges like BAF, Warfage, and Bill of Lading applied?

BAF is the fuel adjustment; Warfage is a U.S. port charge often per metric ton; the Bill of Lading covers maritime documentation. Your quote itemizes these and other typical surcharges by lane and container size.

Do you calculate drayage and fuel surcharges for door pickup?

Yes. When you select delivery or provide distances, the quote shows drayage and fuel surcharges based on origin/destination proximity to rail ramps or ports and selected service type (live load or drop & pick).

Can I export cars or boats and still get an instant rate?

Yes. Indicate the quantity and who loads (you or our warehouse). The quote includes any car-only surcharges and title clearance steps when applicable.

What insurance coverage can be quoted?

Industrial cargo can be quoted All-Risk. Cars and household goods default to Clause C (total loss) unless professionally packed to qualify for All-Risk. Enter your insured value to receive an estimate and see conditions.

Do you handle customs clearance at destination?

You can choose to use our customs broker at destination. Duties and taxes are not included in freight totals; we provide HS code guidance and links to estimate duties and taxes.

How long are rates valid and when do I get the Bill of Lading?

Rates typically hold for 30 days and are confirmed in writing at booking. Bills of Lading are issued after vessel departure; express release is standard unless originals are requested before sailing.
