CARDINAL Skid Rate info


There is MUCH Confusion on SKID RATES from Cardinal Courier - lets see if we can clarify.

1) if you ask the WRONG person on shipping issues - you will get goofy answers - ask someone who is the freight specialist ( like CQ or AS Ops Mgr's )

2) if you want something sent via the SKID deal --it is important that the shipper mark SKID on the bill of lading so Cardinal raters know what to do. Skid prices - under the B4 CARQUEST deal is $49.60 for 200 to 500#'s --then you go to the web site ( Click here ) to se e the EXTRA FUEL SURCHARGE and then add taxes. For weights higher than 500#'s --the rates goes approx an extra $10 per each extra 100#s ( see Greg H for exact pennies if you get that close ) The more weight - the cheaper the extra gets ( standard in the freight industry ) --for a LOT of skids you might look at comparing other carriers

3) I think the CARQUEST rate for incoming is less than the Auto Sense rate - our accounts are set for the CQ rate - but should issues change --we can also change. We see our sales rep at Cardinal ( see GH for name )
