How is mileage calculated for Multiple Shipments?

If your shipments can be combined into an optimized route, then you will only be charged for the combined mileage of each leg.

 

Example:

  1. Pick-up to stop one = 2.2mi

  2. Stop one to stop two = 1.5mi

  3. Stop two to stop three = 3.3mi

Total miles = 7mi
