Freight Estimator: Instant Parcel and LTL Quotes at Checkout
Accurate freight, quoted in the moment, not guessed after the sale.
Automotive parts range from a small clip to a freight-only bumper, and a bad shipping estimate either loses the sale or eats your margin. We build a freight estimator that returns instant, accurate parcel and LTL quotes right inside your quoting flow and checkout. Tell us your products and carriers; we'll make the number right every time.
Who it's for: Automotive sellers and distributors quoting mixed parcel and LTL orders who need accurate freight at the moment of sale.
Problems we solve
If any of these sound like your day, there's software that fixes it.
Oversized and heavy parts break flat-rate shipping and quietly drain your margin.
Customers abandon checkout when freight is a surprise or a slow manual quote.
Reps calculate LTL by hand, so quotes are slow and inconsistent across the team.
You eat the difference every time an estimate comes in under actual freight cost.
Parcel and LTL live in separate tools, so nothing gives one clean answer at checkout.
What we build
Concrete deliverables, shaped to how your business actually runs.
Instant parcel and LTL quotes returned live inside quoting and checkout.
Accurate rating that accounts for weight, dimensions, freight class, and destination.
Multi-carrier comparison so each order ships the cheapest viable way.
Automatic freight-class and handling logic for oversized automotive parts.
Connections to your carriers and cart so quotes appear without manual lookup.
Fallback rules and margin buffers you control so no quote ever ships at a loss.
We run AutoBuffy and quote real automotive freight, from small parcels to oversized LTL, every day.
We build the carrier and checkout integrations end to end so quotes are live where customers buy.
We handle the messy edge cases, like freight class and oversized handling, instead of hiding behind flat rates.
Questions we get asked
Straight answers. If yours isn't here, ask us below.
Can it quote both small parcels and heavy LTL freight?
Yes. The estimator handles the full range, from a small parcel to oversized LTL, and returns one accurate number at quoting or checkout based on weight, dimensions, class, and destination.
How accurate are the quotes?
We rate against your actual carriers using real weights, dimensions, and freight class, so the number the customer sees matches what it truly costs to ship. You set margin buffers to stay protected.
Which carriers can you connect?
We connect the parcel and LTL carriers you already use and can compare them so each order ships the cheapest viable way. Tell us your carriers and we build around them.
Will it work inside our existing checkout or quoting tool?
Yes. We integrate the estimator into your cart and quoting flow so quotes appear live where customers and reps already work, with no separate lookup.
What happens on unusual or oversized items?
We build handling logic for freight class and oversized parts, plus fallback rules you control, so tricky items still get a sensible quote instead of a broken flat rate.
