Standard quotes versus Auction

At deliveryquotecompare.com we provide you with two quotation options:

• Standard quote
• Auction format

Standard quote:

With a standard quote transport companies are unable to see what quotes their competitors have offered; only you can see all the different quotes. Standard quotes are normally used to get an indication of cost prior to a delivery being confirmed.

Auction format:

In an auction format competing companies bid against one another for your delivery requirements. As each company is able to see what the other is bidding, the auction format can often result in significant cost savings as potential providers bid against each other driving the price down.

The auction format is normally used when a delivery has been confirmed and you are looking for the best possible price.
