Raul,

There are many variable to determine freight rate charges. Weight, Space Taken up in the trailer, etc.


You can use a website to do comparisons of what other companies would charge to transport the same freight. Here is one www.freightcenter.com.

Or if you will be doing this on a regular basis, buy software that will help you determine rates.
