Bid smarter on USPS
HCR & CDS contracts.

02

Bid setup guidance

Walk-through on cost modeling, equipment specs, and PS Form 7405 preparation so your bid is competitive and complete.

03

Post-award setup

If you win the route, we help with driver onboarding, vehicle staging, and the operational rhythm that keeps service scores high.

From call to moving, often the same day.

  1. 01

    Free no-obligation call

    We learn your truck, preferred lanes, home base, documents, and pay targets. No pressure and no commitment.

  2. 02

    DocuSign setup

    We send the dispatch agreement through DocuSign, confirm what we need, and help make sure your insurance documents are aligned. If you have what you need ready, setup can take under 30 minutes.

  3. 03

    You approve the rate con, we send pickup details to your phone, and the truck rolls. Many ready carriers can be moving the same day or within 24 hours.

    Weekly cadence

    Lanes planned a week out. Daily check-ins. We negotiate detention, layover, and TONU when they're owed.
