Well for the past couple weeks I've been diligently working on this price chart, and I think I'm very close to satisfied with it, but I Had one more question for whoever is interested in helping. When an LTL carrier determines their cwt (Rate per hundred pounds) for a specific zip code area, lets say an area of 100 miles, do they base the rate off of roundtrip mileage? I'm sorry if I'm wording this confusingly, but for example: if customer A has a shipment going 75 miles away from customer A's location, is the price based off of 75 miles or the mileage the driver has to do total? Thank you to anyone in advance I sincerely appreciate your input and help.
