}A complete shipping toolkit — quotes, bookings, tracking, and webhooks — accessible through a clean, well-documented RESTful API.
Your customers get real-time, accurate shipping quotes embedded directly in your checkout flow or product pages. No redirects, no waiting — pricing appears in milliseconds.
From quote to delivery confirmation, manage the entire shipping lifecycle through our API. Create bookings, generate contracts, process payments, and receive delivery proof — all programmatically.
Give your customers live shipment tracking with GPS coordinates, milestone updates, and estimated delivery windows. Push notifications via webhooks keep your systems synchronized.
One API covers all cargo types — heavy equipment, vehicles, boats, palletized freight, household goods, and oversized loads. Dynamic pricing adjusts based on equipment specs and route.
Test every endpoint in our fully-functional sandbox with simulated quotes, bookings, and tracking data. Ship to production with confidence after validating your integration.
OAuth 2.0 authentication, TLS 1.3 encryption, rate limiting, and API key rotation. SOC 2 compliant infrastructure ensures your data and your customers' data stays secure.
Clean, RESTful endpoints with JSON request/response format. Average response time under 200ms.
/api/v1/quotesGenerate an instant shipping quote with pickup/delivery locations, cargo dimensions, weight, and equipment type. Returns itemized pricing with multiple shipping mode options.
/api/v1/bookingsConvert a quote into a confirmed booking. Triggers carrier dispatch, generates contracts, and returns a tracking number for real-time shipment monitoring.
/api/v1/tracking/{id}Retrieve real-time shipment status, GPS location, estimated delivery time, and milestone history for any active or completed shipment.
/api/v1/rates/estimateLightweight rate estimation endpoint for displaying ballpark pricing on product pages. Returns min/max price range without requiring full cargo details.
/api/v1/webhooksRegister webhook URLs to receive real-time push notifications for shipment status changes, delivery confirmations, and invoice events.
/api/v1/carriers/availabilityCheck real-time carrier availability on specific lanes. Returns carrier count, average transit time, and estimated pricing for a given origin-destination pair.
From e-commerce checkouts to enterprise ERPs — our API powers shipping for businesses of every size.
Embed shipping quotes directly in your product pages and checkout flow. Customers see accurate delivery costs before they buy — reducing cart abandonment and increasing conversions. Perfect for dealerships, equipment marketplaces, and online retailers selling oversized goods.
Connect LoadLoom's pricing and booking directly into your SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, or custom TMS. Automate shipment creation when orders are placed, sync tracking data back into your system, and eliminate manual data entry across platforms.
Equipment auction platforms and vehicle marketplaces can offer buyers instant shipping quotes at the point of sale. Winning bidders see delivery costs immediately, and sellers can offer door-to-door shipping as a value-added service.
Build shipping functionality into your iOS or Android app. Fleet managers can request quotes, book transport, and track shipments from the field. Our API is mobile-optimized with lightweight response payloads and offline-friendly design.
LoadLoom's Shipping API is the fastest way to add freight quoting, booking, and tracking capabilities to your business. Whether you run an equipment marketplace, manage a fleet of heavy machinery, or operate an e-commerce store selling oversized goods, our API gives your customers the ability to get instant shipping quotes and book transport — without ever leaving your platform.
Traditional freight quoting is slow and manual. A customer wants to know how much it costs to ship an excavator from Houston to Chicago — they fill out a form, wait for an email, maybe get a callback the next business day. By then, they've already found another solution. With LoadLoom's API, that same quote is generated in under 200 milliseconds and displayed right in your checkout flow.
Our API supports every cargo type in our network: heavy equipment (excavators, bulldozers, cranes, loaders), vehicles (cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles), boats and watercraft, palletized freight (LTL and FTL), household goods and moving services, and oversized/overweight loads requiring special permits. A single integration covers all of these categories with intelligent pricing that factors in equipment dimensions, weight, route distance, fuel costs, and real-time carrier availability.
Our API follows RESTful conventions with JSON request and response bodies, standard HTTP status codes, and comprehensive error messages. We provide client libraries for JavaScript/Node.js, Python, PHP, Ruby, and C#/.NET. Every endpoint is documented with request examples, response schemas, and edge case handling.
Getting started takes minutes, not weeks. Sign up for an API key, test in our sandbox environment with simulated data, validate your integration, and go live. Our developer support team is available via email and Slack for technical questions and integration architecture guidance.
API access is available on flexible plans — from startups processing a few quotes per month to enterprise customers generating thousands of bookings daily. Volume-based pricing means the more you ship, the less you pay per transaction. Contact our sales team for a custom quote tailored to your business volume.
