What to know before getting started.
Here are some of the most common questions we get from first-time customers.
Is Mothership the right fit for my shipping needs?
We specialize in business to business freight shipping at high volumes. If you’re shipping pallets or crates weekly or daily, we’d love to partner with you. We don’t pick up from residences nor do we ship personal items, parcels or loose furniture.
Which type of shipments include free liftgate service?

What is a marketplace, and what makes it so powerful?
A marketplace provides the infrastructure for buyers and sellers to connect. At Mothership, our marketplace is a managed environment. To drive efficiency for both shippers and carriers, we grow each local zone proportionally to shipment volume. As a result, shippers can book same-day shipments on-demand, and carriers maintain consistent access to work.
