    So basically the broker is the middle guy between shipper and carrier. He's always trying to find a carrier to pick up a load and keep the difference correct? Ex: Shipper is paying $1000 for the load transportation. The Broker will pay the carrier $700 and keep $300. Right?

    Can we simplify shipper and carrier. Is the shipper the thing transporting the products? Is the carrier the company the broker is trying to do business with??

      Shipper= customer ( the party who owns the product/loads to transport by the carrier)
      Carrier= transport load for the shipper

      Shipper is the owner of the shipment. Carrier is the trucking company that will haul that shipment. The broker makes that happen

      Shipper is the owner of the shipping who provides the load to broker
      Whereas
      Carrier are the ones who provides trucking services for the particular loads to brokers.

      A shipper is any business that needs their freight moved. A carrier is a trucking company that moves the freight. Brokers connect the shippers to the trucking companies and also oversee the entire transit process.

      Its best to use already established load boards, such as DAT.

    • @albertbarclay4893
      @albertbarclay4893 2 года назад +3

      As a freight broker, most companies have internal load boards. They post challenging lanes on online load boards like DAT and TruckStop to get seen by more carriers. Companies with a smaller carrier base will post more loads online as well.

      @t.j.schaff2478 2 года назад +36

      I've worked for a couple different freight brokerages (3PLs.) Freight brokers help save time, money, and also act as liability protection. When a shipper hires a 3PL to move their freight, in many situations the freight actually temporarily becomes the property of the 3PL while in transit. Because of this, brokers and the trucking companies (carriers) that they work with carry heavy insurance policies for covering potential damages/issues. While the primary goal is for freight brokers to make a profit, they also have expertise in local markets, how weather effects different traffic patterns, and are good at communicating directly with truckers to ensure goods get to the receiver in a timely efficient manner. When a 3PL is hired to move freight, any issues that arise during transit are handled by the brokers, so that producers/shippers can focus on their own business. Manifesting an internal logistics team is really expensive, so logistics brokers often help large companies save a lot of money.

    Being a broker is bullshit..the shipper could save money if they wasn't so dam lazy.skip the broker ,post there own loads, let the trucks give them there info, put it in the system,then all the trucks would have to do,is book an roll.drivers could make the money it takes to run these trucks. I know drivers who can't even fix there trucks because the money is all gon once it get to the driver 😠
