Tips

Be specific about dates

Providers plan routes weeks in advance. The more precise your ready date and delivery deadline, the better your match quality.

Volume matters

Accurate CBM figures help providers understand whether your cargo fits their available space. Underestimating can cause issues at collection.

Insure your goods

Travomate Cargo is a marketplace, not a carrier, and carrier liability is capped well below most cargo values. Arrange cargo insurance for the full value of your shipment, and ask the provider for proof of their liability cover before booking. See Insurance & Liability.
