Reviewing and Comparing Bids

What You’ll See on Each Bid

Each bid is designed to give you a clear snapshot of who the hauler is and what they’re offering. You’ll see their price, their delivery estimate, their vehicle class, and their overall platform rating. If you click into a bid, you’ll find even more helpful information — past reviews, previous shipments, and sometimes equipment details.

⭐ A well-written hauler message often signals professionalism and reliability.

Key Factors to Consider

While price is important, most shippers balance several factors:

Experience & Ratings: A hauler with higher ratings and more completed shipments typically brings more consistency and fewer surprises.

Delivery Timing: Faster delivery or flexible scheduling can be worth a slightly higher bid.

Verification Status: Look for haulers who are fully verified — identity, bank setup, DOT/MC (if needed), and insurance.

Communication Style: A clear, professional message can tell you a lot about the hauler’s reliability.

When to Ask for Clarification

If a bid seems promising but you have questions about timing, equipment, or handling requirements, feel free to message the hauler before accepting.

💡 Good communication up front almost always leads to smoother deliveries later.
