Why are these free?
Because they’re a small slice of what ParcelOps does automatically. Every calculation on these pages (volumetric weight, sliding-scale tariffs, fuel surcharges, VAT) runs on every quote, waybill and invoice inside the platform, using your own rate cards instead of samples. If the tools are useful, the product is more so.
