What is an offer?

An offer is an offering or request for a freight transportation service. Shippers publish their freight and carriers publish their vehicles. When your offer is published, the system automatically searches for offers that match your offer. Users can view published offers as well as post their own.

There are 2 types of offers:

  1. Freight. You are a shipper and are looking for carriers.

  2. Transport. You have free transport and you are looking for a freight transportation offer.

All offers can be public and private. This is regulated using checkboxes when creating an offer.

Here is an interactive window to help you understand how this works (you can scroll through it):

Text guide:

1

Click on the "Create an offer" button in the upper left corner.

2

Select "‎Vehicle".

3

Fill in the description of your transport:

Vehicle category*, select one value from the list: light van (LCV; up to 3.5t), truck (from 3.5t to 12t), semi-trailer truck, double-trailer (truck or semi-trailer with 2 cargo bodies/trailers), special machinery.

Truck body type*, select one value from the list, and if the vehicle category is double-trailer, then 1 or 2.

Transportation type, select one or more values from the list: FTL (dedicated transport), LTL (less than full load), oversized/project transportation.

Tonnage*, enter a value from 0.01 to 999,999.99. When you are looking for additional loading (i.e. additional cargo) then specify free available tonnage (in tons).

Volume*, enter a value from 0.01 to 999,999.99. When you are looking for additional loading (i.e. additional cargo) then specify free available body volume.

Body options and features, select one or more values from the list, for example, hydraulic manipulator.

Loading methods, select one or more values from the list: rear, one side, both sides, racks removed, top, full tilt dismantling. Especially relevant for the curtainsider body type.

ADR: transportation of dangerous goods, select classes of dangerous goods that you can transport.

Length, Width, Height of cargo, specify the dimensions of the cargo. Especially useful if you have a non-standard body size.

Trailer interchange, check this box if you are ready to do trailer interchange taking into account the provision of a trailer.

If you are ready to provide the service of trailer interchange without a trailer, that is, to provide a vehicle (the «‎head»‎ itself), then in the body type indicate "‎Truck with driver".

Temperature control, if your vehicle is adapted for transporting temperature-sensitive cargo, specify the minimum and the maximum temperature. Multi-temperature mode can be specified in the options and body features.

Optionally, provide a text note, e.g. about insurance, country of vehicle registration, additional conditions of transportation, possible services, etc.

Optionally, specify the cost per kilometer. If you do not specify the cost, it will be displayed as negotiable.

*Required fields.

Specify directions:

Specify the region where you are ready to pick up*, i.e. a city, a region, or a specific location with a radius. Be sure to specify the range of dates and times when your transport is available to accept an offer. You can specify an open date, for example, "‎From today" until the moment the offer is accepted.

Specify delivery directions*, i.e. cities, regions and countries where you are ready to deliver the cargo. You can specify up to 15 delivery directions.

*Required fields.

Note! At least one direction must be specified.

Specify where the offer will be published (i.e. to whom it will be available) at the bottom of the page:

Public exchange, your offer will be publicly available and will be visible to all exchange users.

Private exchange, your offer will only be seen by your company's specified partners. By default, all partners are selected, but you can select specific ones. No one except for you, your company's employees and the partners selected as recipients of the offer will be able to find and view private offers.

Both exchanges, you need to tick both private and public exchange checkboxes. Your offer will be placed on both public and private exchange at the same time. The offer is subject to the rules of the public exchange, meaning that any user and visitor of Roolz platform will have access to your offer. In this case, the specified recipient partners will see your offer on their private exchange page in the received offers in addition to the general search for cargo and transport.

6

Publish the offer. When the offer has "‎Published"‎ status, other exchange participants will be able to find it.

Also, if you placed an offer privately, then your offer will only be visible to you and your partners from the ; such offers will be indicated as "Private".
