Large Truck | 16 - 25T | 4 km/L | Bulk orders, highway routes |
Trailer | 25 - 40T | 3.5 km/L | Large bulk, power plants |
Note: For quantities above 40 tonnes, our calculator automatically allocates multiple trucks to optimize cost efficiency.
Freight cost for biomass pellets includes fuel cost (based on distance and mileage), driver charges, toll charges, vehicle maintenance, and a base rate per km. Our calculator uses real-time state-wise diesel prices to give you an accurate estimate. Final rates may vary ±5% based on market conditions.
For quantities up to 8 tonnes, a small truck works well. Medium trucks handle 8-16 tonnes, large trucks handle 16-25 tonnes, and trailers handle 25-40 tonnes. Our calculator automatically selects the most suitable truck based on your quantity.
Freight costs vary primarily due to different diesel prices across states. For example, Ladakh has diesel at ₹72.15/L while Telangana is at ₹96.24/L. Our calculator uses current state-wise diesel prices and averages them for routes crossing state borders.
Distance is calculated using the Haversine formula with a 1.3x road factor applied to account for actual road routes versus straight-line distance. Actual road distance may vary by 5-15% based on highway conditions and route selection.
Driver charges are calculated as ₹800 for distances up to 150 km, and ₹800 + ₹5 per additional km beyond 150 km. This accounts for overnight stays and allowances on longer routes.
Yes. If you already have a rate from a transporter (in ₹/km), enter it in the Quotation Rate field. Our calculator will show both your quoted price and our detailed calculation so you can compare.
Biomass pellets are typically transported in bulk (loose in truck body) or in 25-50 kg HDPE bags. Bulk transport is more cost-effective for large quantities. Bagged pellets are preferred for smaller quantities and ensure protection from moisture during transit.
