What are the benefits?
How does it work?
 |
The ABF Shipping Charges Calculator is directly linked from your website or auction page to a partial "quote" you create on the ABF website. |
 |
In its own window, the Shipping Charges Calculator returns accurate transportation charges back to your customer. |
 |
Quotes are based on information that you specify, such as shipping origins and commodity specifics. |
How do I set it up?
|
It's easy. First, you need an ABF account and an abf.com password. Contact your sales representative if you need to set up an account. |
|
If you have an account and just need a password, simply go to abf.com and click "Need a password?" |
|
Once you log in, click on the Shipping Charges Calculator link on the "Before You Ship" tools list. |
|
Enter your basic shipping information (like shipper and product information). NMFC-Item and sub may be required, depending on individual pricing requirements. |
|
Click "save" to generate a formlet to post on your website. Or simply copy and paste it to your eBay® or other online auction page. |
