See known fuel surcharge context before label purchase
You book a shipment at $22. The carrier invoice arrives and it's $34. Fuel surcharge: $6. Residential delivery: $4. Dimensional weight adjustment: $2. None of that was visible when you booked. Covantra builds charges into the rate view, whether the carrier publishes them or not, so the number you approve has better surcharge context while correction monitoring catches any carrier adjustment.
Built around the business teams doing the shipping.
Finance leads, operations managers, and admins at Canadian B2B companies who are tired of approving a shipping cost and then reconciling a different number on the carrier invoice three weeks later.
A practical workflow for Canadian business parcels
See a carrier rate that includes fuel surcharges, residential fees, DIM weight penalties, and remote-area charges, whether the carrier publishes them or not — then decide whether to buy. Teams enter shipment details once, compare rates with surcharge context, whether the carrier publishes it or not, buy labels, track delivery, and keep support reachable when a carrier or package edge case needs review.
Why this fits Canadian B2B parcel workflows
Yes — fuel surcharges, residential delivery fees, dimensional weight adjustments, and remote-area charges are included, whether the carrier publishes them or not, before label purchase. Correction monitoring catches any carrier adjustment that changes the final invoice.
The surcharge breakdown is visible in the rate comparison — not buried in a footnote — so you can see what's driving cost differences between carriers.
No subscription required to compare surcharge-aware rates before buying labels.
Works for both domestic Canadian shipments and Canada-US cross-border parcels, where cross-border accessorials are the most common source of invoice shock.
