Shiply.com Freight Marketplace Scraper

Shiply.com Freight Marketplace Scraper

Scrape freight marketplace listings from Shiply.com, filtered by country, up to a million per run. Each listing includes the route, vehicle size, distance, and budget. No login required. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

Shiply's freight marketplace connects shippers with transport providers, but manually browsing listings across countries is slow. This Actor reads the public listing feed directly, letting you collect routes, budgets, and vehicle requirements for any supported country. It returns a clean, flat dataset ready for analysis or lead generation.

Troubleshooting

The Actor returns zero listings.

Check that you selected a valid country and that Shiply.com is currently reachable. Try increasing the maximum listings value and running again.

I am getting rate-limited or blocked.

Increase the Request Delay to 2000 ms or more and reduce the Max Concurrency to 1 or 2. This slows down the scraper and reduces server load.

The run stops before reaching the maximum listings count.

The Actor stops when it has collected the requested number of listings or when no more listings are available on the site. It does not loop indefinitely.

Some fields are empty in the output.

Not every listing on Shiply includes all details. If a field is empty, that information was not provided by the shipper on the public page.
