How it Works
Traditional parcel pricing is based on distance (zones), size and weight. For most shippers, a package going anywhere in a zone - whether urban, suburban, rural - will be the same rate.
Step 1
A shipper sets a target price per piece along with the package details: weight, dim, pickup location, destination, must arrive by date
Step 2
Onrout sends the package details through to the carrier and they bid on that piece with the best price they can offer
Step 3
If the carrier’s best price is below the shipper’s target price, the carrier is awarded the package, a label is sent to the shipper at the target price, and the carrier delivers the package at the desired deliver by date

Step 4
If the carrier doesn’t meet the target price, the shipper sends the package with their reserve carrier at a preset rate card price.
