Haul for FreightSonar

Loads arrive as a rate confirmation with the addresses, windows, freight and an all-in rate. Accept with one click, upload the proof of delivery from your phone, get paid net 30 from the signed POD or faster with quick-pay.

Three steps per load

  1. Tender

    An email with the rate confirmation PDF and a link. Pickup, delivery, freight, special instructions and the rate are all on it; nothing is hidden in a tariff.

  2. Accept and haul

    One click records your acceptance; the shipment dispatches. Call ahead where asked, check the count, get the delivery receipt signed.

  3. POD and pay

    Upload the signed receipt and your invoice through the same link. Net 30 from the POD, or quick-pay at the discount on your file.

What we need on file

Authority

Safety fitness certificate (NSC) or provincial equivalent; USDOT and MC if you cross-border for others.

Insurance

$100,000 cargo and $2,000,000 automobile liability minimum, with a certificate naming FreightSonar.

Compliance

WCB clearance, TDG training for dangerous-goods loads, and a signed carrier agreement. No re-brokering, no back-solicitation.

Everything in one place, once you are on file

  1. You are vetted first

    We check the safety fitness certificate, the insurance certificate and the WCB clearance, and we need the carrier agreement signed. Only then do we open an account — we do not let anyone register themselves as a carrier here.

  2. Then you get a login

    Keep your certificates current before they lapse, see every load you have hauled for us, upload a delivery receipt or an invoice from your phone, and check when a payment is due.

  3. Nothing changes about taking work

    Load tenders and rate requests still arrive by email with a link that needs no sign-in. The account is there when you want it, not in the way when you don't.

Carrier questions

How fast do you pay carriers?

Net 30 from the signed proof of delivery and your invoice quoting the load number. Quick-pay at an agreed discount is available on request.

Do you double-broker?

No, and our carrier agreement prohibits it in both directions. Loads move on the carrier that accepted the rate confirmation.

What lanes do you tender most?

Lower Mainland and Calgary local, Vancouver to Calgary to Edmonton linehaul, the Okanagan, Vancouver Island, Red Deer, Lethbridge, and Alberta to Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

Do I have to use a portal to take a load?

No. A tender arrives as an email with the rate confirmation and a link; one click accepts it and nothing asks you to sign in. Once your paperwork is on file we also give you an account, which is where you renew your insurance certificate, see your load history and submit invoices — but the email link keeps working and always will.

We also broker freight. Can we buy lanes from you?

Yes, on a separate footing. A carrier that needs a price on a lane outside its own footprint opens a partner account: the prices are the same ones a shipper sees, and the invoices are GST/HST zero-rated under the interline rule. Hauling for us and buying from us are independent, so you can do either or both. See the partners page.
