The More Options section allows users to apply additional pickup and delivery requirements when creating a consignment in Cario.
These options are used when freight requires special handling, site-specific access, or confirmed delivery arrangements beyond standard carrier services.
Pickup Options
Pickup options define special requirements at the collection location. Selecting one or more of these options informs the carrier of site constraints and handling needs.
Common pickup options include:
- Tail Lift – Required when a loading dock or forklift is not available
- Loading Crane Required – Used for oversized or heavy freight requiring crane assistance
These selections help ensure the carrier arrives with the correct equipment and resources.
Delivery Options
Delivery options apply special requirements at the delivery location and may affect both service availability and pricing.
Available delivery options include:
- Hand Unload – Required when freight cannot be unloaded mechanically
- Tail Lift – Used where there is no dock or forklift at delivery
- Loading Crane Required – For large or heavy freight requiring crane unloading
- Confirmed with Receiver – Indicates delivery has been pre-arranged with the recipient
- Book In (Date & Time) – Specifies a required booking or time slot
- Deliver On (Date) – Requests delivery on a specific date
These options are commonly used for construction sites, hospitals, retail locations, or time-sensitive deliveries.
Impact on Carrier Services & Pricing
Each option selected in More Options directly impacts the consignment outcome:
- Carrier Availability
Some carriers or services may not support certain options. When an option is selected, incompatible carrier services are automatically excluded from the service list.
- Service Suitability
Only carrier services capable of meeting the selected requirements will be presented for selection.
- Additional Charges
Many options (e.g. tail lift, hand unload, crane requirements, booked deliveries) may result in additional carrier charges, which are reflected in the service pricing.
This ensures the selected carrier service accurately reflects the true operational and cost requirements of the delivery.
Why Selecting the Right Options Matters
Correctly selecting More Options helps:
- Prevent delivery failures or delays
- Avoid unexpected carrier surcharges
- Ensure accurate pricing at the time of booking
- Provide clear instructions to carriers and drivers
Incorrect or missing selections may result in service rejection, delivery issues, or post-delivery invoice adjustments.
