ABOUT GOFREIGHT
.
Gofreight Australia is a company which has its beginnings because
of the need for a type of service which until now didn’t
exist. Working for an engineering firm we often had the need to
send freight and to pick freight up from out of the way places.
Sometimes we would ring up to 20 freight companies
over a period of months to try to move some articles
It came to me one day while travelling south
and wondering how to get some freight north, I noticed how many
empty and part empty trucks I was passing and began wondering
how I could communicate my needs to these drivers. With the increasing
costs of fuel etc, we obviously need a more efficient transport
system.
Over the last 12 months we have studied this
situation and looked at many systems. Gofreight is the culmination
of much research and we believe it will provide a much needed
link between freight owner and carrier.
The system we have devised will be a free service
to the carrier.
After logging on to the site, the freight owner
will be issued with a security reference number, after adding
their own password which will secure the site they will follow
a series of information boxes.
Location, freight description, size, weight etc,
loading method.
There will be a charge of $12 to register your
freight. Unless the user removes the listing it will remain online
for 30 calendar days, cost 40c per day.
The freight owner will also include his email
address for contact purposes. The freight owner and carrier will
negotiate a rate between themselves.
Gofreight Australia believes this service will
be beneficial to both freight owner and carrier.
