Freight Bill Check: did you overpay for a shipment?
Enter what you were billed for a truckload or LTL load and see it against today's market price for the same lane: the quote a shipper would get, the price a negotiation usually reaches, and the lowest price a broker is likely to accept. Free to use.
How it works
- Pick what moved: dry van, reefer, flatbed, or LTL.
- Enter where the load picked up and delivered, the ship date, and the total billed. Put extras such as detention, lumper fees, or liftgate in their own field so they are left out.
- Bill Check prices the lane with the same calculator as the FreightFA Rate Estimator and marks your bill against it.
- Dry van and LTL bills get a verdict (above market, at market, good price, or well under market) and what negotiating would have saved. Reefer and flatbed bills get FreightFA's estimate and the gap, without a verdict.
What it compares
- The all-in price with fuel. Fuel surcharges are not judged on their own.
- Bills up to 30 days old directly; 30 to 90 days with a note that the market may have moved; older bills get today's market for reference only.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if I overpaid for a freight shipment?
Compare the all-in amount on the bill (base price plus fuel, without extras like detention or liftgate) with what the same load costs on the market today. Bill Check does that for dry van and LTL loads and marks your bill against the market quote, the negotiation target, and the walk-away floor.
Does FreightFA keep my freight bill?
A bill you type in is not saved: the amounts are used for the comparison only, and the lane is priced like any other rate lookup on FreightFA. If you upload a bill, a third-party AI service reads the file and it is then discarded. FreightFA never keeps the file, the text read from it, names, addresses or document numbers. With your agreement before each upload, it does keep the lane (to the 3-digit ZIP area), the kind of load, the ship date and the prices, without your name or account, to improve its benchmarks.
Can I upload my freight bill instead of typing it in?
Yes, with a FreightFA account. Bill Check reads a PDF or photo of the bill and fills in the form for you to check. Before each upload you see how the bill is read, how it is used and what is kept, and agree to it. A free account includes 1 upload, Pro includes 1 a month, and Desk includes 100 a month. Typing a bill in is free and not counted.
Does Bill Check audit fuel surcharges and accessorials?
Not on their own. It compares the all-in price with fuel against the all-in market price, and leaves extras out of the comparison.
