Continental is a neutral LTL class rate base for shippers. It allows you to provide a single base for all carriers in your transportation portfolio.

As a superior LTL rate base, it provides true 5 digit US zip code rating capabilities and true 6 digit Canadian postal rating. The US and Canadian postal codes are continually updated.

The advantages of using a single rate base are:

• Control over your own rates
• Easily negotiate with transportation providers, bringing all carriers to the same pricing index.
• Simplified and less expensive auditing.
• Control of increases, negating lane based general rate increases (GRI).
• Reduce internal administrative expenses by utilizing one base.

The advantages of using Continental over other rate bases are as compelling:

• Continental does not dictate lane-based biases since its annual general rate increase is not governed by any carrier or group of carriers.
• You have complete disclosure to rates, knowing exactly what makes up your freight prices.
• Control over what changes and what stays the same in your rate base.
• Access to rate base data so you and your transportation providers don’t have to purchase expensive rating software to autorate your bills.
• Rating for US and Canada.
• Welcomed by all LTL carriers.
