SCAC Code
Standard Carrier Alpha Code - a unique 2-4 letter code that identifies a carrier.
Detailed Explanation
SCAC codes are assigned by the National Motor Freight Traffic Association and are used to identify carriers in various systems including bills of lading, shipping documents, and EDI transactions. For example, FedEx Freight uses FXFE and Old Dominion uses ODFL. SCAC codes help prevent confusion when multiple carriers have similar names.
