How to submit freight rates to VA Transportation & Logistics Center
Documents may be emailed to
vatlc2@va.gov
For assistance, calls may be made to (202) 372-6046 or (202) 664-9385.
Make certain you have a registered Standard Carrier Alpha Code (SCAC).  Originals of your Certificate of Liability coverage documents must be sent directly FROM YOUR INSURANCE CARRIER.  The minimum truckload cargo liability is $250,000, LTL minimum is $100,000.  Our bills of lading show the shipment valuation.  Most shipments (90%) are valued below $100,000.00.  All VA freight shipments are made with the freight description of
Freight, All Kinds (FAK)
The rates initially submitted must be your best offer.  Tenders may be cancelled upon 30 day’s notice and rates may be increased upon 30 day’s notice.  Rates may be decreased with a one-day notice.
VA Form 0744, Uniform Tender of Rates and Charges,
is required for submitting rates.
With TL tenders, do not split rates to a state such as for northern and southern California or northern and southern Florida, or for eastern and western Pennsylvania, etc.  Send only one rate for an entire state.  If rates to a state are split, the rates for that state will not be entered into our database system.  All points of a state must be served whether for LTL or TL services.
Instructions are included in the spreadsheet.  LTL line haul rates are presented as a percentage of the VA Baseline Rate Table.  Accessorial charges are presented as a percentage of the VA 100 Rules tariff item.  Minimum charges are presented as a flat charge.
Shipments with conditions not covered by your tender(s) will require special one-time-only rate quotes.  These quotes will be binding and take precedence over tender rates.  Rate quotes must be presented using the VA Rate Quote Request Form provided from our office.  Quotes must be dated, signed and have an original signature.  They may be emailed to
vatlc2@va.gov
. Transport of mobile homes, heavy equipment, laboratory moves, and blanket wrapped furniture moves will require special rate quotes.
Instructions are included in the spreadsheet linked above.  TL line haul rates are presented as a cost per mile. Accessorial charges are presented as a percentage of the VA 100 Rules tariff item. Minimum charges are presented as a flat charge.
