How it works

Three steps from invite to rate.

  1. Invite us

    Add James Transportation to your RFP or bid list, or send us the bid package.

  2. Send your lanes

    Enter your lanes line by line, or fill in our Excel template.

  3. We respond with our rate

    Our team reviews your lanes and responds with our rate.

What to send: for each lane, pick-up and delivery city, state and 3-digit ZIP, equipment, annual volume, hazmat or team, and special instructions. Up to 100 lanes in the pop-up, or upload the Excel template.

  • Competes on rate. A rate-competitive provider adds healthy competition to your lanes.
  • Delivers what it wins. 98.7% on-time delivery, 98.5% on-time pickup (combined customer scorecards).
  • Dry van and reefer. Hazmat available, lower 48 and Canada, tracked with MacroPoint.

Beyond the rescue

We don’t only cover last-minute recoveries.

We help keep them from ever getting that critical, by bringing the same white-glove service to annual RFP contract freight.

Years of running RFP lanes

James Transportation has been moving freight since 2010, 16 years. Our team has spent years running RFP lanes and working to win them, so we know what a contract lane needs once it is awarded: a sound rate, coverage that shows up and people who pick up the phone.

Experience makes the call. AI does the legwork.

We use AI and the latest technology to help us price accurately and source the right capacity for your freight. It helps with the repetitive work, such as finding carriers, faster and with fewer errors. Our experienced brokers stay human-led and make the final call on every rate.

What to send

Your lanes, one per line.

For each lane: pick-up city, state and 3-digit ZIP; delivery city, state and 3-digit ZIP; equipment type; annual volume; whether it is hazmat or team; and any special instructions. Enter them in the pop-up on the form (up to 100 lanes), or fill in the Excel template and upload it. Both work, or use both.

Optional notes: your lanes go in the pop-up or the Excel upload.
