How It Works
When posting a load, Baleport automatically suggests a budget range using live data from:
Mapbox Routing API – Calculates real driving distance and time.
Load Weight & Dimensions – Heavier or oversized items cost more.
Special Factors – Fragility, temperature control, time sensitivity, or dock availability.
Current Market Averages – Based on similar loads and lanes.
You’ll see two numbers:
Suggested Budget Minimum – Baseline rate covering standard haul costs.
Suggested Budget Maximum – Reflects premium service or urgent delivery.
Adjusting Your Budget
You can override the suggested range if you prefer:
Increase for priority handling or express delivery
Decrease for flexible or low-urgency shipments
💡 Tip: Posting realistic budgets helps your load attract faster, higher-quality bids.
Why It Matters
Accurate budgets:
Prevent underbidding or inflated offers.
Build trust with haulers.
Lead to faster job acceptance and fewer disputes later.
