Price lock

A price lock is a commitment that the figure you booked will not be raised later. It is a contract term, not a mood. On 10 November 2026, Sherpa Auto Transport's public homepage described its pricing as backed by a Price Lock Promise. The same day, Montway Auto Transport's site still carried a page and a component labeled TruePrice Guarantee. Those are the companies' own names. This page does not describe how either program pays out. Read their current terms.

What the sentence has to say#

Look for what is locked, for how long, and for the exceptions. A lock that excludes inoperable cars, extra miles, or a change of dates is a narrow promise. A homepage banner is not the clause. If the order confirmation does not repeat the lock, ask for the clause before you pay a deposit.

How it differs from a quote#

A quote is an offer to try to book near a number. A lock, if the contract gives you one, is a promise about the number after you book. RideShipper does not lock a carrier's price. A range on this site can move because fuel, season, and the truck that accepts the load all change. The company you hire is the only one that can promise its own rate.
