We Audit Each Mode by Its Own Rules
So no overcharge slips through
LTL, truckload, and international freight are each priced differently — classification and weight for LTL, mileage for truckload, and layered fees for international freight. One audit approach can’t catch errors across all three.
ICC audits each mode against its own pricing rules and your negotiated rates, catching the misclassifications, mileage miscalculations, and invalid charges that generic audits miss — then recovering what you’re owed.
Verify LTL freight classification, weight, and zip-code pairing.
Confirm truckload mileage calculations across carrier programs.
Validate accessorial fees and fuel surcharges on every mode.
Check that negotiated discounts are correctly applied.
Audit international air and ocean invoices for hidden charges.
Every Freight Mode Bills a Different Way
LTL, truckload, and international shipments each follow their own pricing logic — and their own failure points. A carrier’s mistake on one mode looks nothing like a mistake on another, so most of them go unnoticed.
LTL:
Hidden in Classification
LTL rates depend on freight class, weight, and zip-code pairing. A single misclassification or weight discrepancy quietly inflates the rate — and repeats on every matching shipment until someone catches it.
Truckload:
Hidden in the Miles
Truckload pricing is mileage-based, and carriers use different mileage guides. Incorrect distance calculations and stop-off charges lead to overcharges that are nearly impossible to spot without auditing against the right guide.
International:
Layered Risk
Air and ocean freight stack accessorials, currency, and documentation charges on top of base rates. Each added layer is another place for an invalid charge to hide inside an already complex invoice.
