Density-Based Rating

TForce Freight Density-Based Rating eliminates the need for freight classification

If you only occasionally prepare less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments, you know how frustrating and time-consuming it can be to determine your product’s proper freight classification. Furthermore, the wrong classification can lead to charge corrections which may increase your cost and delay invoicing your customer. Now you can eliminate the confusion and uncertainty by shipping with TForce Freight Density-Based Rating.

TForce Freight Density-Based Rating simplifies LTL shipping by swapping freight classifications for weight and dimensions (Length × Width × Height). Eliminating freight classification provides the following benefits:

  • Simplified BOL creation
  • Better rates for better density
  • Eliminate errors caused by future NMFC classification updates
  • No classification disputes from carrier inspections
  • Rate consistency & predictability

With TForce Freight, you can skip determining and/or verifying freight classes. Just dimensions and weight, making for faster, more accurate and more transparent shipment processing. In addition, shipments moving under Density-Based Rating will be subject to a comparatively lower and less volatile LTL fuel surcharge. The result is predictable rates, consistent invoicing and an end to the uncertainty.
