How to Request a Shipping Quote

Created by Brian Cummings, Modified on Thu, 9 May at 2:15 PM by Brian Cummings

Clients often need to know the shipping or freight cost to deliver inventory to another address. The warehouse team can issue a quote if provided with the required information:

  • Delivery address
  • If the address is commercial or residential
  • If a liftgate is required
  • If an appointment is needed to set the delivery day and time


To request a quote, create a task in the Outbound Shipments section of the portal. Title the task: 'TASK - Shipping Quote'. Include all the information requested above in the Notes field.  


Add the items to the task through the blue Add Items button


The warehouse team will provide the shipping quote estimate in the Warehouse Notes field. The inventory items will be removed from the portal Task once the quote has been provided. (See image below)


If the quote is acceptable, create a new order to request your items be shipped.



Please note: The quote is for the cost of shipping only, and does not include service fees to prepare the items for delivery. Quotes are valid only for the same day as provided. LTL freight costs fluctuate frequently.
