What does Rate per trip mean in logistics?
Short answer
A fixed freight amount for one vehicle movement on a named lane with a named vehicle type, whatever the weight or volume within the vehicle’s legal capacity.
The most common basis for Indian FTL. Quotes should state the vehicle type, loading and unloading points, free time, and what is included (tolls, loading labour, escort). Ask our desk how this applies to your consignment.
