Example terms & calculation
February 7–May 2, 2022. EIA Gulf Coast diesel. Sample freight rates; $3.88/gal protection threshold, no payout cap, 2¢/gal fee ($600 in this selection). Fuel includes a 12¢ local price difference and 8¢ discount. One payout to the shipper on May 9, based on the average price for the period. Illustrative terms.
Fuel protection in freight-broker and 3PL bids
Give shippers another reason to pick your bid. The shipper, or you, pays a small fee per gallon, and if diesel jumps, Hedjee pays the shipper the difference. No margin account, no deposit, and carrier pay stays the same.
Does this change our carrier agreement?
No. Carrier pay and your freight terms stay the same. Hedjee pays the shipper directly, separate from the freight invoice. You decide whether to pass the fee to the shipper or cover it from your margin.
Why would a shipper care?
Diesel spikes break freight budgets. A bid that includes protection helps the shipper hold its budget when diesel jumps, which gives you something to compete on besides the rate.
