It is often contrasted with contract rates, which involve long-term agreements between shippers and carriers. We provide spot freight logistics services to meet your immediate shipping needs.

Spot freight
Spot rates are determined based on the current market conditions and demand-supply dynamics, allowing for more flexible pricing. In contrast, contract rates are negotiated and agreed upon in advance, usually for a specified period or volume of shipments. Spot rates are commonly used when shippers require immediate transportation or during peak seasons when capacity is limited.
01 Capacity Shortage
When their regular carriers are unable to meet their transportation needs due to capacity constraints, companies can turn to spot freight to secure additional capacity quickly
02 Urgent Shipments
Spot freight is ideal for time-sensitive shipments that require immediate transportation without the need for long-term contractual commitments
03 Seasonal Demand
Companies facing seasonal fluctuations in demand can use spot freight to manage increased shipping requirements during peak seasons
04 Testing New Markets
