Fill in the [lane template (CSV)](https://safeandsecure.in/rfq/ssl-rfq-lanes-template.csv) and send it with the form, or send your own RFQ sheet as it is. Honest about who does what ## What we run, what we confirm, what partners carry - ### Run by SSL Part and full truckload, road reefer, milk-run loops, port haulage, and road freight across the Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh borders. We quote these directly. - ### Confirmed first Packed chemicals and coatings (a hazard-class check), food loads (a previous-load declaration), Northeast hill roads (a road-open check) and perishable export. You get a yes or no first, and a rate only after it passes. - ### Through partners Sea, air, rail, customs and charter legs. The reply marks the partner figure as an estimate and prices our own road leg separately. Send your request ## One form, one reply ## RFQ desk questions **How fast do you reply to an RFQ?** Our desk answers the same working day. A multi-point RFQ or a tender is answered as one pack, and we tell you if a lane needs a check first. **What does one reply include?** The vehicle, the rate per trip, transit days, detention terms, paid or to-pay, loading and unloading, who prepares the e-way bill and LR, and how long the price is valid. **How is detention handled?** Free hours and the after-free rate are agreed per vehicle and lane and written into the quotation, together with whether the clock starts at reporting or at placement. **Who is liable for the cargo, and who buys insurance?** The quotation states our liability terms for the move. Cargo insurance is normally bought by the cargo owner; ask the desk if you want it arranged. **Is freight GST included, and is it paid or to-pay?** The quotation says whether freight is paid or to-pay, how GST appears on the freight invoice and which GSTIN is billed. **How do POD and shortage or damage claims work?** The quotation states when the proof of delivery is returned and how a shortage or damage claim is filed, with the signed LR and photographs as the record. **Can you quote a lane we already have a rate on?** Yes. If the lane, vehicle and validity match the rate we hold, the reply is a placement, not a new quotation. Quote your agreement or card reference. **Do you handle dangerous goods or food?** Packed chemicals move only after the hazard class on the safety data sheet is on our accepted list, and food loads come with a written last-loads declaration. Both are confirmed before a rate. **Which languages do you reply in?** English and Hindi. **Can you quote ocean, air or rail?** We arrange them through partner operators with one accountable desk. The first reply marks the partner leg as an estimate and prices our own road or port leg separately. Your next RFQ, answered once.
