Every Warp carrier is vetted, tracked, and managed to a standard
The truck that shows up for your pallets isn't whoever bid lowest on a load board. Warp runs a managed network of 24,000+ carriers — each one Highway-verified before its first load, tracked on every shipment, and scored on every lane it runs.
See how Warp vets, tracks, and manages carriers
Vetted
Verified before they haul a load
- Highway-verified. Every carrier clears Highway before their first Warp load — active FMCSA operating authority, insurance on file, and identity checks that shut out fraud and double-brokering.
- Monitored continuously. Highway watches authority and insurance in real time. A lapse flags the carrier and pulls them from dispatch automatically — not at the next renewal.
- Covered to $1M. Carriers carry their own cargo and liability minimums, and Warp layers $1M of cargo coverage on top of every shipment.
Tracked
Visible on every shipment
- ELD + telematics. Warp integrates with carrier ELDs and telematics, so location updates flow automatically — no “where’s my truck” calls.
- Warp driver app. Drivers confirm pickup, delivery, and proof of delivery — photos and e-signature — in the Warp driver app. Using it is a condition of staying in the pool.
- Live the whole way. You and the Warp team watch the shipment move from pickup to delivery, not just ping at the endpoints.
Managed
Held to a performance standard
- Pools built over years. Each regional pool was cultivated over years — carriers earn in on real freight and prove out lane by lane, not by undercutting a load board.
- Scored every lane. On-time pickup and delivery, tracking compliance, damage-free handling, and communication are tracked on a scorecard for every carrier and lane.
- Managed, not just measured. Top carriers earn more volume; misses trigger coaching and retraining; carriers who don’t recover are rotated out.
That's why a Warp pallet moves on a carrier we already trust — and why the trust compounds: every shipment feeds the scorecards that decide who hauls the next one. The network gets better, not just bigger.

Pallet shipping quotes, answered
How pallet shipping quotes are calculated — and when LTL, box truck, or cargo van is the right mode.
Pricing
How pallet shipping quotes are calculated
Pallet shipping quotes are calculated from pallet count, total weight, pallet dimensions, origin, destination, delivery requirements, and the best-fit mode.
Warp prices pallet moves per pallet and matches the shipment to cargo van, 26 foot box truck, LTL cross-dock routing, or full truckload based on cost and service fit.
Live quote
Best way to get an LTL freight quote
The best way to get an LTL freight quote is to enter origin, destination, pallet count, weight, and dimensions into a live quote flow that returns bookable rates immediately.
Warp quotes LTL by the pallet with all-inclusive pricing, so the rate includes pickup, handling, line haul, delivery, liftgate when needed, fuel, and accessorials.
Lowest cost
Cheapest way to ship a pallet
The cheapest way to ship a pallet depends on distance, urgency, and pallet count.
One to three pallets often fit cargo van economics for local moves, four to twelve pallets often fit 26 foot box truck economics, and longer-haul pallet freight often fits LTL cross-dock routing. Warp compares these modes in one quote flow.

FedEx Freight quote alternative
Warp is a FedEx Freight quote alternative for shippers who want live pallet rates, fewer terminal handoffs, all-inclusive per-pallet pricing, and GPS visibility on every load.
FedEx Freight can be a strong fit for broad terminal coverage, while Warp is built for high-intent LTL, pallet, and middle-mile freight where cost clarity and execution visibility matter.

Match your pallet count to the right mode
Warp matches your pallet count to the right vehicle and route automatically. Every mode is priced per pallet with all-inclusive rates — no minimums, no freight class, no accessorial fees stacked on top.
Cargo van
Up to 3 pallet slots
- Same-day dispatch — book before noon, delivered within the metro.
- Tight-access friendly — urban storefronts, residential, narrow zones, height-restricted buildings.
- Priced per load, not per pallet — smaller and more maneuverable than a box truck.
Tracked end to end — Warp driver app with live GPS, scan events, POD photos, and e-signatures.
Box truck
Full 1–12 pallet range
- Every 26-foot truck is liftgate equipped — no loading dock required at the destination.
- Per-pallet pricing — 6 pallets costs exactly 6× the per-pallet rate. No volume or partial-truckload premiums.
- Built for dock-free drops — retail stores, restaurant supply, construction sites.
Temperature-controlled available for food, pharma, and perishables — no separate reefer surcharge.
LTL cross-dock
Best economics on long hauls
- Routed through 50+ Warp cross-docks — picked up local, consolidated, dispatched on outbound line-haul.
- 1 to 2 handoffs, not the 3 to 5 of traditional terminal networks — lower damage, faster transit.
- No freight class required — per-pallet pricing still applies.
Best cost on distance — the right call when pallets fit a cross-dock consolidation pattern.
Full truckload
Up to 26 pallets · 44,000 lbs
- Dedicated 53-foot trailer — your freight only, direct origin to destination, no cross-dock handling.
- Up to 26 pallets or 44,000 lbs — the right call once volume fills a trailer.
- All-inclusive pricing — instant rate, no fuel surcharge, no accessorials stacked on top.
Multi-truck volume available beyond one trailer — booked through the same flow.
All inclusive per pallet pricing
Traditional pallet shipping is complicated by surcharges. You get a base rate, then fuel surcharge adds 15 to 25%. Liftgate fee adds another charge. Residential delivery fee. Limited access fee.
Inside delivery fee. By the time the invoice arrives, the actual cost is 20 to 40% higher than the initial quote. Warp per pallet pricing includes everything.
The rate covers pickup from your facility, all handling, transport through the cross dock network or direct delivery, and final delivery with liftgate as needed. No fuel surcharges.
No accessorial fees. No hidden charges. The pallet shipping quote you see is the price you pay.
Get your pallet shipping quote
Enter your pallet count, weight per pallet, pallet dimensions, origin, and destination on any Warp quote page.
The system matches your shipment to the right vehicle type and routing and returns an all inclusive per pallet rate in seconds.
For cartons, cases, parcels, or up to 3 pallets, expect a cargo van option with same day dispatch. For 1 to 12 pallets, expect a box truck option with liftgate equipped delivery.
For longer distance moves, LTL cross dock routing may provide the best cost. Every quote is live and bookable. No callbacks, no account required, no waiting.

Freight modes and vehicle types
| Mode | Max payload | Max cube | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cargo van | 3,500 lbs | 400 cu ft | Time-sensitive, last-mile, light pallets |
| Box truck | 10,000 lbs | 1,500 cu ft | Regional distribution, no dock required |
| LTL | Per-pallet | Shared trailer | Lower per-pallet cost via cross-dock routing |
| Dry van / FTL | 42,000+ lbs | Full 53-ft trailer | High-volume lanes, recurring programs |
Cargo vans handle loads up to 3,500 pounds and 400 cubic feet, ideal for time-sensitive deliveries, last-mile retail replenishment, and lightweight palletized freight.
Box trucks carry up to 10,000 pounds and 1,500 cubic feet, fitting most regional distribution and store delivery needs without requiring a loading dock.
Dry vans and full truckloads move 42,000+ pounds for high-volume lanes and recurring programs. LTL shipments share trailer space on optimized routes through Warp cross-docks, reducing per-pallet cost by consolidating multiple shippers on the same vehicle.
Warp does not default every shipment to a 53-foot trailer. The AI engine evaluates load weight, cube, delivery window, and cost to recommend the right vehicle. Shippers see all available mode options with live pricing in one comparison screen before booking.
Cross-dock operations
Cross-docking at Warp facilities eliminates warehouse storage. Inbound freight is sorted and transferred directly to outbound vehicles, typically within hours.
This reduces dwell time, lowers damage risk, and compresses delivery windows. Warp cross-docks support pallet-in, pallet-out operations with scan-level tracking at every handoff point.
- Atlanta — Southeast retail flow
- Chicago — Midwest manufacturing and replenishment
- Houston — Texas industrial distribution
- New York — dense Northeast delivery
Facility locations are selected for corridor density: Atlanta handles Southeast retail flow, Chicago serves Midwest manufacturing and replenishment, Houston covers Texas industrial distribution, and New York supports dense Northeast delivery. Each facility operates on appointment-based scheduling to prevent congestion and maintain throughput consistency.
Enterprise freight programs
Enterprise shippers get committed rate programs, dedicated account management, and custom SLA design. Warp builds lane-by-lane rate structures that account for volume commitments, seasonal variation, and mode flexibility. Operations teams monitor shipment execution daily and intervene proactively when exceptions occur.
Self-serve freight quoting
Shippers enter origin and destination, load details, and delivery requirements to see live rates across all available modes. Quotes include estimated transit time, vehicle type, and total cost.
Booking takes one click. After booking, shippers track every shipment with real-time GPS location, milestone updates, and proof of delivery documentation.
Industries and use cases
Retail shippers use Warp for store replenishment programs that deliver to hundreds of locations per week on tight appointment windows. Apparel brands use zone skipping to bypass regional parcel sortation and reduce per-unit delivery cost.
Food and beverage companies rely on time-definite delivery for perishable goods. Manufacturing operations use Warp for inbound vendor consolidation, combining multiple supplier shipments into fewer, fuller loads through cross-dock facilities.
Distribution companies use pool distribution to serve multiple delivery points from a single origin, splitting full truckloads at cross-docks into smaller last-mile vehicles.
Urgent freight recovery covers emergency capacity needs when primary carriers fail or demand spikes unexpectedly. Middle-mile optimization reduces cost and transit time on the longest segment of multi-leg shipments.
