It seems this site is been down for a while. I cant use the linear foot calculator. This was a really great feature. I just wish it was still available.
With the FreightorGator LTL Freight Exchange, you can easily view shipping quotes from top-rated carriers and browse carrier reviews from other shippers – all for free. It gets better, every LTL shipment you book through FreightorGator only costs you a flat fee of $25. Every time. No more guessing on rates, no more games, just back to business.Some of you might know us as ShipX Freight. So, why did we change our name? FreightorGator is a catchy alliteration which says new and different. It is time for our name to match the mold-breaking, time saving and cost saving online service we provide to help small business simplify their LTL shipping. In the spirit of alliteration, we are saying LATER to the LTL middleman, LATER to high freight prices for small business, LATER to complicated obscure and ambiguous rates from 3PLs, and LATER to endless, time-wasting phone conversations with freight brokers. FreightorGator is the new way to compare LTL freight rates, book and track LTL shipments.In the military, Gator Freighters are a common term for an amphibious assault ship, used to deliver troops and equipment to beaches. We are on an all-out assault on high freight rates, giant 3PL commissions, long phone conversations and complicated freight-centric lingo.But wait. Didn’t you misspell “FreightOR?” Well, yes. We did it on purpose. OR is to remind you that we provide you with choices. FreightorGator offers the most competitive rates and quality reviews from the leading carriers.FreightorGator is the simple, low-cost, no-nonsense way to quote and book LTL freight.

We love the idea of a site that offers discounted shipping costs and flat fees. Unfortunately Shipx (now FreightorGator) is double dipping and got caught. They sent out a newsletter stating no fees but how could a business that recently was forced to rebrand and chose such a rediculous name going to survive a rebranding let along free shipping? This leads us to believe they are getting commissions from MyFreightWorld who they use exclusively for pricing. There would be no other way to offer something for nothing. We tried them multiple times but their rates were higher even with their reduced fee. Lost our business for sure.

Hello Bobby. I am sorry to read your review. FreightorGator passes along our direct, negotiated rates to our customers. Our business model includes a flat booking fee, which is currently waived ($0 booking fee) through September to celebrate the launch of www.freightorgator.com; as promoted on the home page of our site as well as our monthly newsletter. Beginning October 1, we will add a flat $25 to the negotiated rates we receive directly from the freight carrier, and extend to you. Pretty simple, and most agree a pretty good deal! If you have any questions, or would like more information, we’d love to hear from you. You can email us at [email protected]. Thank you!

Purchased shipping for multiple crates with all dimensions and weight info accurate. After items arrived, they then billed an additional amount, claiming the freight carrier charged them more, despite the stated shipping specifications being accurate. In addition, the items would not have been picked up by the freight carrier had I not personally been in direct contact with the freight carrier for three hours prior to pickup. If you're planning on using their service, expect to be overcharged and expect massive headaches dealing with freight company to make sure your freight actually gets picked up. Have since switched to other LTL comparison services that are both cheaper and operate better.

Hello Ryan. It pains me to read about your poor experience. Our customer's feedback is the the single biggest driver of FreightorGator's road-map. If you are willing, we'd love to receive more detail from you to make certain this testimonial is an anomaly.
