A futile charge is applied when a driver has attempted the pick up or delivery of a job but is unable to perform this task due to a change in the original quoted job requirement that prohibits the supplied vehicle from being able to perform the job. For example, the van provided is too small as the shipment was much larger than originally quoted, or there was nobody available at pick up or delivery at the time of the attempt. The full charge of the attempted job will be applied as the futile charge.
