Common questions

Which carriers support terminal drop-off?

2 carriers publish a code for terminal drop-off, and a further 1 support it through a request field rather than a code. Customer delivers the freight to the carrier's origin terminal instead of a pickup.

Is there a standard terminal drop-off code across carriers?

No. Each carrier defines its own code, so the same service is spelled differently at every carrier you integrate with — ABF Freight uses Acc_DOCKDEL, Southeastern Freight Lines uses chkSHC. A code is only meaningful together with the carrier it belongs to.

Need this programmatically? /api/accessorials/map?service=terminal-dropoff returns the same data as JSON on every plan.
