Axiom checks for anything missing or unclear before sending a quote.

Shipper FAQ

Straight answers before you request a shipment.

The quote Axiom sends and its booking confirmation set the terms for that shipment.

How long is a quote valid?

Each quote shows its own validity date. Request an updated quote if that date has passed or the shipment facts change.

Is transit time guaranteed?

Transit is shown as an estimate unless the quote expressly states otherwise. Appointments, operating conditions, and carrier acceptance can affect timing.

How are accessorials and detention handled?

Tell Axiom about known accessorials before pricing. Each quote shows possible extra charges, while detention and other event charges require supporting records.

When is a shipment booked?

Sending a booking request does not confirm the shipment. It is booked only after Axiom sends an explicit booking confirmation.

Where do BOLs, PODs, and invoices appear?

Authorized users can upload shipment files and keep a receipt. Documents Axiom shares appear in the Documents area of the company account.

How do claims or payment requirements begin?

Contact Axiom with the shipment reference and supporting records. Claim handling, credit terms, vendor setup, invoicing, and payment are confirmed separately for the account and shipment.

Have a shipment to price?

Send the shipment details. Axiom will review them before pricing.
