We don't charge any upfront fees for our quotes or services - only a % of the money we collect for you. This means that you pay nothing out of pocket AND receive your maximum refund in a timely manner. We keep records of every audit we perform during the auditing process, which can be accessed at any time.
Due to both government and individual carrier-imposed Statute of Limitations, the timely receipt of freight bills for audit, and the subsequent filing of overcharge claims is very important. The time restraints for the filing of overcharge claims by mode is as follows:
Air Freight, Ocean Freight, and Freight Forwarders:
30 - 180 days
LTL and Truckload Carriers:
180 days
Railroads:
18 months
Parcel and Small Pak Carriers:
15 days
As a result of the above limitations, we encourage all of our clients to send their freight bills, images, and data files for audit on a monthly, but no longer than a quarterly, basis.
The requirements to initiate our audit programs are quite simple and involve minimal work on your behalf.
