What does Rate per km mean in logistics?
Short answer
A freight rate charged on the kilometres run, either loaded kilometres only or all kilometres, often with a minimum daily or monthly distance.
Common in Indian dedicated fleet and long-term contracts. The contract must define which kilometres count (GPS, odometer or standard lane distance) and how empty kilometres are treated. Ask our desk how this applies to your consignment.
