Quote

A quote is a number from a company that wants the order. It usually names the car type, the route, open or enclosed service, and a price. Until you book, and until a carrier accepts, it is an offer to try. The company can fail to find a truck at that rate. That failure is how a re-quote starts.

What a quote is not#

It is not an invoice. You do not owe it just because it arrived by text. It is not a review of the company. It is not the cost of gas, hotels, and meals to drive the car yourself. Those are a different sum, and they should be labeled as driving costs. A quote that is far under every other quote on the same lane is a reason to ask why, not a reason to send a deposit first.

RideShipper shows a price range before any contact details. That range is an estimate, not this quote. If you ask for quotes, you give your name, email, and phone and tick a consent box. Licensed companies that serve the route then contact you. RideShipper does not issue the carrier's quote and does not lock a price. The words in the company's contract control. You can also call (800) 989-8833 for quotes by phone, 24/7.
