What to know about Freight brokers
A freight broker arranges road transport without owning the trucks. You tell the broker what needs to move, from where to where and by when; the broker finds a carrier from its network, negotiates the rate, books the load and follows it to delivery. Brokers are most useful for shippers whose volumes are uneven, whose lanes change from week to week, or who need capacity on short notice, because a broker can reach dozens of carriers that a single shipper would never contract with directly.
