Quote flatbed, boom, and Moffett truck deliveries accurately in Shopify.
Price jobsite framing packages, drywall lifts, concrete pallets, and fencing orders by driving distance from your yard, total bundle weight, and required flatbed trips.
The checkout margin trap:
Contractors ordering 5 pallets of 80-lb concrete mix plus treated deck lumber routinely exceed single flatbed axle weight, turning a $125 flat jobsite fee into a money-losing two-run haul.
- Supports optional Moffett forklift or boom-truck unload surcharges when palletized SKUs are in the cart.
- Calculates road driving distance from the nearest branch yard for multi-yard dealers.
- Generates clean morning sequence sheets sorted to avoid backtracking between jobsites.
