Question 1

Is Freightseeker a freight comparison site or a freight platform?

Accepted Answer

Both - but at core we are a freight platform. You can book freight directly on the homepage without a carrier account, and with an account you get a full system for booking, import, weekly invoicing, statistics, and integrations. The platform compares carriers for you and suggests the right option per shipment.

Question 2

Can I book freight directly without an account?

Yes. On freightseeker.com you can search freight, choose a carrier, and book directly - without a carrier customer number. With an account you also get discounts, weekly invoicing, and access to the platform for higher volume.

Question 3

How do I handle many shipments per week?

Accepted Answer

Create an account and sign in to the admin platform (admin.freightseeker.com). Import addresses and shipments in batch, use the address book, follow statistics, and get everything on a weekly invoice. API and ecommerce integrations are available for automated flows.

Question 4

Question 7

Is it cheaper than booking directly with the carrier?

For direct booking on the web you pay at checkout via Svea Checkout (card, etc.). With an account you can get a weekly consolidated invoice.

Question 11

Accepted Answer

Once you have an account, sign in at admin.freightseeker.com with the same credentials. There you manage shipments, addresses, import, and invoicing. One-off booking without an account happens directly on freightseeker.com.

Question 12

My address does not appear as an option in the search field. Why?

Accepted Answer

Enter the address manually in the form. If you proceed to the next step and see freight options, the address is approved. If you still have problems, contact us and we will help.

Question 13

My shipment is damaged, what do I do?

Check whether the contents are damaged or only the outer packaging. If contents are damaged, the sender should contact us so we can investigate. For visible damage on delivery, the claim should be reported the same day.

Can I ship my goods in a bag or sack?

Accepted Answer

All shipments need approved outer packaging. Cases, sacks, and bags are not approved packaging. The waybill and address label must stay attached during transport.
