- A confirmed booking record is created in your Carrier Dashboard
- The shipper is notified by email and WhatsApp

DELIVER, GET PAID, GET RATED
Deliver the load and collect payment directly from the shipper. Every good delivery earns a rating, and ratings win you more work.
GOOD TO KNOW
- Freight is paid directly to you, not through Carico
- Documents are re-checked ahead of expiry, so keep them current to stay active
- Your ratings shape your standing on the board
TIPS FOR WINNING MORE WORK
The carriers who do well on Carico do these things.
Keep documents current
Renew before expiry so you never miss a load.
Check often
First to accept wins. Fast eyes get the good loads.
Accept only what fits
Check size, weight and dates before you commit.
Deliver on time
Good ratings follow, and so do repeat shippers.
QUICK QUESTIONS
When can I start accepting loads?+

Is there a free trial?+
Yes. Every carrier plan includes a 7-day free trial, and it starts once you're verified.
How do I get paid?+
Directly by the shipper. Carico doesn't handle your freight payment. You only pay for your plan.
