When the company's trucks are rented by other trucking companies, there is a commission that Alibey must pay. These fees are linked to the weight of the goods and the distance of destination. For example, if the final destination is more than 3000 km, the fees are higher because the total bill is larger. Basically, the fees are tied to the total invoice amount. Big companies like Willi Betz don't get work from local companies, just because their loads are usually not enough to load an entire truck. If a local company needs to transport their product, they should contact the International Trucking Council. These councils also charge a fee from local businesses and the companies they have hired, such as Alibey. At the end of the fiscal year these fees add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
