After a shipper sends bid invitations, selected carriers will receive an email for participating in the quote. This article will provide instructions on viewing and submitting a bid for a quote.

A login is not required to bid on spot quotes from ShipperGuide shippers.

To view the bid:

To submit a bid:

Flat Rate = rate per mile * miles

Rate per Mile = flat rate / miles

2. If you would like to send any communication about the rate to the shipper, include your comments in the text box under Add notes to Shipper.

3. Once you are ready to submit your bid, click "Submit"

4. A pop-up will appear to verify confirmation to submit the rate. Click "Confirm" to submit your rate for the quote, or click CANCEL to update/withdraw your bid.
